'''Material purification''' is a service that debuted in 2026 that allows for existing materials with innate properties to have a greater effect when purified.  The first purified materials were sold at the [[Grand Auction of 5126]] and the service became widely available starting with the February 2026 run of [[Duskruin]].

All purified materials only use the [[material]] slot. They are compatible with any script.  Purified metal is shown in [[loresong]] properties

==Flares==
For elemental materials the flare is in addition to the existing ability flare. This allows up to 3 flares, an ability flare and a double material flare then 5 with GEF. The Double flare with flares that are stronger than normal. The first flare is one critical rank higher than normal. The second flare is two critical ranks higher than normal.

An item like this would be the A material component, B ability slot and D for GEF slot.

==Process==
Armaments must already {{boldmono|INSPECT}} of the correct material before they can be purified.  Purification itself is done via automated certificates available at [[Duskruin]]'s [[BVShop:The Annex|The Annex]].

If an armament is not of the correct material type, it must first undergo the [[transmutation]] service.  This cost varies depending on if it is a lesser transmute or intermediate transmute.  The purification service will only update the quality to purified if the item material matches the material of the certificate

Intermediate transmute adds missing properties to make the material valid for the item.  Lesser transmute does not.  The intermediate transmutes add necessary properties that are innate to the material.  So if the bow doesn’t have 10 CER sighting for sephwir, it would get added.  Intermediate transmute to rhimar would add cold flares, etc.  All the elemental metals are valid for bows.

Material difficulty is unaffected by purification.

===Cost===
See the individual certificates listed in Duskruin's [[BVShop:The Annex|The Annex]] and [[HESS]] for current pricing.

==Behind the scenes==
Purification's implementation reuses a mechanism that was previously used with [[shadarl]].  The addition of the display in {{boldmono|RECALL}} now shows for that as well.
