Thread: Kamihime General Discussion + Q&A

A quick way to understand how leveling weapon skill would be to think of it as a "point system" for every rank.

Points required:
R= Half the current skill level
SR= Exactly equal to current skill level
SSR= Double the current skill level

With the above info, you can say that for Skill Level 10 - > Skill Level 11
R = 10*0.5 = 5 points required
SR = 10*1 = 10 points required
SSR = 10*2 = 20 points required

As for the fodder used, the points are as follows WHEN at skill level 1 for the fodder itself
R is worth exactly 1 point
SR is worth 3.5 points
SSR is worth 35 points

To calculate how many "points" a current fodder has, you multiply the Skill Level by the Rarity.
So an SR fodder with skill level 4 is 14 points. SR(3.5 points) X Skill Level(4) = 14
SR fodder with skill level 3 is 10.5 points. SR(3.5) X Skill Level(3) = 10.5

If you checked the link Dejnov posted, there is a list that tells you basically what skill level you want to raise your fodders to for maximum profit. Ignore the first line with R because it is faster to use R as it is as rank 1. Also, we usually don't level a fodder past a certain level based on R invested:Point increased ratio.
For example, SR3->4 costs 3R, but you instead gain a total of 3.5R through the process which means a bonus of 0.5R.
SR4->5 costs 4R, but you only gain 0.5R. You end up losing 0.5R during this level up.


With the above info, you just need to know how many points does your current weapon need to skill level up. A quick example:

SSR assault lvl 19, trying to raise it to 20
SSR 19 = 38 points required

SR SL4 gives 14 points. Two makes 28.
SR SL3 gives 10.5 points.
Combining the three gives us 14+14+10.5=38.5

SR4 requires 1+2+3 Rs
SR3 requires 1+2 Rs
We spent a total of 6+6+3=15 Rs to gain 38.5 points.
Usually we do not count SR usages, and only the amount of Rs invested.

But if you wanted to that is 3 SRs used which is 10.5 points.
So instead of 15 Rs originally worth 15 points giving us 38.5 through fodder leveling, we spent 15 points with Rs, and 10.5 points with SRs, for a total of 25.5 points, and leveled a weapon that needed 38 points.


The above is so you finally understand how it works, don't need to memorize it.
Just save the link Dejnov shared, and every time you plan on leveling your SSRs just look at the skill level, multiply by 2, and refer to grid for what combination you need for lowest R consumption.

Took me quite a while to understand weapon leveling myself, but eventually figured it out by doing the process a few times.
Also, all this is relevant for now, but eventually I hear they are introducing the "exp" based skill level system. It should basically work the same way, but points are carried over to the next level whereas currently extra points are gone for good. But that's probably going to take quite a while for it to be implemented on Nutaku.
