Chienkun Transfer Charts

Nirvana Recast/Quench/Reforge
Twilight Temple level 100 weapons skip the Recast step and go straight to Quench. For them you only have to use the Quench column. Reforging Nirvana gear has no Chienkun cost at all but you are forced to fully transfer refinement, sockets, and gems.

Transferring Gems
To transfer gems you must also transfer sockets. The Chienkun requirement for multiple gems is added together. Socketed gems cannot be transferred individually.

G16 Nirvana/NV3
Unlike G15 Nirvana, G16 Nirvana requires Chienkun Stones for rerolling. G16 weapons made from TT Nirvana weapons appear to have a higher forging cost than those made from G15 Lunar nirvana weapons.

Transferring Sockets
The number of sockets for both armor and weapons can change during rerolling if sockets are not transferred.

Some weapons may have lower forge requirements.

Transferring Gems
To transfer gems you must also transfer sockets. The Chienkun requirement for multiple gems is added together. Socketed gems cannot be transferred individually.

Tomes
Only the refining level can be transferred on Tomes. The Chienkun cost is the same regardless of the source or target Tome's grade.

To transfer a Tome's refining level, talk to any Elder, choose the Tome Refine option, and click on the Refine Transfer tab at the top of the window.

Generic Transfer Costs
All of the above tables are generated from a default Chienkun Transfer Cost. All forge recipes in the game that support Chienkun transfer are a simple multiple of the generic Chienkun cost of the transfer. Lower multiples are cheaper.

The Chienkun cost of any of these services is the product of the multiplier from the table above times the base Chienkun cost from the tables below.

Transferring Sockets
The cost depends on the grade of the product (not the source) and the number of sockets transferred.

Transferring Engravings
The cost of transferring engravings depends on the number of addons the item has; the grade of the item and quality of the engraving does not factor in the cost.
