Advanced Enhancement is an improved version of the NPC’s enhancement function on equipment. It consumes Sturdy Mithril to reduce the amount of enhancement materials needed. A great feature you have as a Blacksmith is that Advanced Enhancement will prevent enhancement drops and resets without the cost of Blessed Fluorite Ores for enhancement levels, 4 to 5, 5 to 6, 6 to 7, 7 to 8, and 8 to 9.
