===== 🔧 NPC Enchantment =====

NPC Enchantment refers to special services offered by in-game NPCs that allow players to enhance their equipment beyond normal upgrading. These systems can add **slots**, **extra stats**, or **unique properties** to gear.

----

==== ⚒️ Types of NPC Enchantments ====

The following enchantment systems are available:

  * **Refinement System** – Standard weapon and armor upgrading.  
  * **Updated Refinement System** – Adjusted mechanics with improved safety.  
  * **Socket Enchant** – Adds card slots to certain gear.  
  * **Hidden Enchant** – Grants random stat bonuses (+1 ~ +10).  

Each system has its own rules, success rates, and costs.

==== 🛠️ Refinement System ====

The most common form of NPC enhancement. Weapons and armors can be upgraded to increase their effectiveness.

  * Increases **ATK** (for weapons) or **DEF** (for armors).  
  * Refine level ranges from **+1 to +10 (or higher depending on server rules)**.  
  * Risk of breaking the item on failure.  
  * Special materials like **Oridecon** or **Elunium** are required.  

----

==== 🔄 Updated Refinement System ====

An improved refinement mechanic that reduces risk or adds special options.

  * May allow **safe refine** up to certain levels.  
  * Sometimes uses **special ores** (e.g., Enriched Oridecon/Elunium).  
  * Gives better success rates compared to normal refining.

==== 💎 Socket Enchant ====

Adds **extra card slots** to eligible equipment.

  * Not all equipment can be socketed.  
  * Success is not guaranteed — failure may break the item.  
  * Cards and previous refinements are destroyed when the process succeeds.  
  * Used mainly to give older gears more versatility.

==== ✨ Hidden Enchant ====

Randomly adds stat bonuses to armor, ranging from **+1 to +10** on any of the six base stats.

  * STR, AGI, VIT, INT, DEX, or LUK.  
  * Different NPCs specialize in different enchant ranges (+1 ~ +3, +4 ~ +6, etc.).  
  * Costs Zeny to attempt.  
  * Risk of breaking the armor if enchant fails.  
  * Cards and refine levels are lost when enchanting.
