Almost 20h in, finishing first area and I just realized that. And as I saw some reviewers complaining about lack of upgrade materials, I suspect they didn't figure that out either. Dang, I probably could have upgraded all my Grimoires to Fine quality if I knew that.

Did you know that? Was there an obvious tutorial message, that I in my arrogance skimmed through?

I don't remember if there is a tutorial message, but it is in the tutorial (I think under basic info), so I knew from the beginning. I didn't find it that useful, ended up with a surplus of iron and had to buy other matierials anyway.

Tbh, I am not a fan of the 'upgrade quality' system, it is just boring because of how repetitive it is. Cooking and emchanting are more fun

 

It's funny because I used crafting system but I never checked second tab and only during third region I realized that it's possible to craft higher materials using several from lower tiers and then I was somehow able to upgrade my weapon to legendary halfway through Shatterscarp.
