Crafting

**Crafting** is available in the  BLC Shop BLC Coin Shop via the *Buy Crafting Certificate* upgrade.

## Crafting Basics

Spending  5 Cheese 5 allows you to craft a leaf into an available slot via a mini-game. When the white bar is stopped, a leaf is created of a random type, with a random *RNG quality*, and a *craft quality* dependent on how close the white bar is to the green bar in the center.

The leaf is also given a random set of properties; the number of properties a crafted leaf has, and the power of their buffs, are determined by its type, RNG quality, and craft quality. In addition, certain properties can only appear on higher-tier leaves.

Unwanted leaves can be salvaged to gain  2 Cheese 2.

If the crafting inventory is full, additional crafted leaves will be placed in the backpack instead. Leaves can be moved freely between the backpack and the inventory, and leaves in the backpack will not provide buffs.

## Rerolls

Various aspects of a crafted leaf can be rerolled. The cost to reroll is proportional to the leaf's type.

* Reroll *RNG quality* with  Beer
* Reroll *craft quality* with  Shards
* Reroll *properties* with  Water Essence

## Upgrading & Shards

Leaves can be upgraded for a scaling amount of  Cheese to make their effects stronger. Sacred leaves and above require  Shards instead of cheese to upgrade them.

### Ascend

Once a leaf reaches level 30 (only possible by purchasing all levels of *Craft Fire* from the  Moonstone Shop Moonstone Leaf Shop), it can be ascended up to ten times for a scaling amount of  Ancient Leaves. Ascending a crafted leaf will make it much stronger, but will return it to level 1 and increase its upgrade cost. Ascending will reroll the craft leaf's RNG quality.

 Sacred Leaves and above require  Ascension Shards instead of  Ancient Leaves to ascend it.

### Shards

Up to ten Shards can be applied to a crafted leaf to boost its properties. When applying shards, you can either:

* Pay 1 shard to boost a random property.
* Or, select a single property to boost, but at a greatly increased cost.
	+ This cost can be reduced by up to 3 with the *Sharp Shards* upgrade from the  Ancient Shop Ancient Leaf Shop.

Adding a shard to a single property multiplies it effect by 4. Each shard after that adds 3 to that multiplier (eg. 2 shards = x7 / 3 shards = x10 / 10 shards = x31).

Shards can also be rerolled for  Water Essence. and rerolling a leaf's regular properties will return all Shards added to it (including the number of selection shards)..

See  Shards for more info.

### Transformation

Singular properties can be rerolled in the Transformation tab. Transformation Shards are required for  Ancient Leaves leaves and higher. Note that doing this will **not** return any shards that were spent on buffing a transformed property.

#### Transformation - Target Property

In the late game after fulfilling requirements in the Area Energy Belt, an option to spend 10x the regular cost to Reroll a Property becomes available. You first have to unlock the Properties, but the process is random. There are a total of 37 Properties in to total to unlock, see Energy Shrine.

### Fusion

Fusion lets you combine 6 leaves of a given type to create 1 leaf of the next tier up (eg. 6x Ancient = 1x Sacred). The new crafted leaf will have RNG & Craft Qualities that is the **average** of all six leaves required to craft it. This means six leaves with 100 RNG and 100 Craft Quality will produce a single leaf of 100/100 stats.

 Sacred Leaves and above can only be created from fusion, and require Fusion Shards to do so.

## Crafted Leaf Types

Crafted leaves can be of a range of types and can be crafted with a high enough craft level:

1. ↑ **Chance %:** Chance to craft, before applying any upgrade bonuses (ie. from *Craft Hammer*)
2. ↑ This requires *Craft Forge* from the  Hematite Shop Hematite Leaf Shop to be maxed out, which is quite costly. Pile hematite and either use Chest Funneling or trade for gems for many time skips.
3. ↑ **Plasma** is only craftable after completing Energy Shrine

## Craft Leaf Properties

Crafted leaves can provide a range of effects which can majorly affect gameplay:

1. ↑ **Additional (type) leaves +X:** You can only get "Additional Ancient Leaves" after unlocking pyramid and it is 1% the size of the other leaves' bonuses
