Lapis

From Shaiya Wiki

Lapis are crystals used to enhance a player's stat points and skills. Lapis are added to a piece of slotted equipment through a process called linking which is performed at a blacksmith. Each time the player attempts to link a lapis, there is a chance of success or failure based on a percentage figure.

Linking / Extraction Hammers

Linking hammers increase the basic chance to successfully link Lapis to your armor, weapons, or accessories. They are not a required item for successful linking, but will increase the chance, keeping in mind the 50% maximum link chance. There are 8 different linking hammers available to players at this time.

Level 1 Hammer : +10% to linking chance (chance x 1.1)
Level 2 Hammer : +20% to linking chance (chance x 1.2)
Level 3 Hammer : +50% to linking chance (chance x 1.5)
Level 4 Hammer : +80% to linking chance (chance x 1.8)
Level 5 Hammer : +100% to linking chance (chance x 2)
Level 6 Hammer : +200% to linking chance (chance x 3)
2x Linking Hammer: +100% to linking chance (chance x 2)
Operators Exclusive : +2000% to linking chance (chance x 20)

The maximum chance for player linking attempts is capped at 50%.

EXAMPLE : If you have a ~30% chance to link and use a Level 2 hammer, your link chance will be increased to ~36% ( 30% + (20% of 30) = 36% )

To use a Linking Hammer, simply place one in the hammer slot on the Lapis linking dialogue

Once a Lapis is linked they can only be removed if you take the item back to Blacksmith. Note, however that if you attempt to Extract Lapis at a Blacksmith, the blacksmith will try to remove ALL of the Lapis currently linked to the item. The only way to remove a specific Lapis from among those already linked is through the use of an Extraction Hammer.

Small Extraction Hammer ~40% chance to extract
Large Extraction Hammer ~80% chance to extract

To use an Extraction Hammer, simply place the hammer in the hammer slot of the Lapis linking dialogue. You will need to click on the Lapis you want to extract, which will then be hi-lited, then click 'Extract'. A dialogue showing the chance and price to extract will come up, just as when linking Lapis, click OK to continue. If the extraction is successful, the Lapis will be placed in your inventory. If the extraction fails, the selcted Lapis, and ONLY the selected Lapis, will break.

As a side note regarding extractions, if you attempt to extract a Lapis that can break gear on a failed link, the same penalty also applies to a failed extraction. There is no way to protect your gear from failed extraction breakage at this time.
