I saw people saying that it’s not
People saying that its possible using ability stones
People saying that its not even having a 10/10 stone (what is almost impossible)
And Ive seeing other opinions.
So, it is possible?
What is the best way to do it?
It is possible,
for 5x3 you need 75 Engraving Nodes
without legendary books, you have 9+9 = 18 nodes equipped
assuming you only have 5/3 accessories, five each: (5+3)x5 = 40 nodes
75 - 18 = 57 (books)
57 - 40 = 17 (accessories)
that leaves us with 17 nodes to get 5x3
You have to get these from the stone
And the only stone that will match your 5/3 accessories, is a 10/7 stone
→ technically possible, but chances to cut a 10/7 stone is close to 0
With 1 legendary book, you save 3 nodes, a 7/7 or 9/5 stone is enough to get 5x3
(total 14 nodes)
With 2 legendary books, you save 6 nodes, and either a 7/4, 6/5, 9/2, 10/1 stone is enough to get 5x3
(total 11 nodes)
Buying legendary books is CHEAPER than buying accessories.
Average cost of 9/7 stone iiirc is 3mil gold, you would have to get insanely lucky, against all odds kind of lucky to get a 10/7 to not need a single legendary book.
On NAW it’s cheaper to buy a legendary book even the most expensive one on the market (DI Shadowhunter for example). Than buying 2 rings with 3 DI nodes on each ring.
The chepaest legendary books on SA are around 16k gold.
It’s possible.
There are classes outhere who make it easier on you in that regard.
Gunslinger Peacemaker and Soulfist Energy Overflow are the 2 on top on my head. Our 5x3 is in reality 4x3 + 1x1
empress arcana also only needs lvl 1. remaining energy deathblade also maybe lvl 1
Only a Big stone would make it possible to do 5x3 without legendary books. On top you see a overview what stones you need with how much legendary books.
