Chance per kill counts equipment packages too (package chance × the item's weight inside). In 10 kills = 1 − (1 − chance)¹⁰; avg. kills = 1 ÷ chance; kills for 90% = ln(0.1) ÷ ln(1 − chance), rounded up. 371 monsters drop it in all; the best 12 are shown.

Decompose

Costs 2,000 Kinah. Every group in the item's DecomposeResultItemGroup gives its package (RewardDecomposePackage, one per enhance level); amounts are added up.

At +5, decomposing gives back 1,510 Enhance Stone, 1,470 more than at +0 — 100% of the 1,470 spent on average getting there. Up to +5 it returns every Enhance Stone spent; past that, the stones lost to failed tries do not come back. Our calculation, same model as the enhance block.
