The Goal: Semi Uber
Crafting Semi Uber Items
Play-To-Win Arsenal
What is a "Semi Uber"?
A Semi Uber is an Ancient Item that also possesses Excellent Options. They are the ultimate "Play-to-Win" alternative to Full Uber items, achievable purely through in-game effort and strategic jewel crafting.

Step 1: Acquisition

Your first goal is to obtain a standard Excellent Item with the specific option you want. For this guide, our target is an Excellent Guardian Helm (with Luck) containing the recommended option: Damage Decrease +4%.
⚔️ 1. Hunting
Hunt Box of Kundun (For sale by Amy the Potion Girl or Golden Invasions). Throw boxes until the desired item drops with the correct options.
Pros: Completely Free
Cons: Time Consuming (RNG based)
🛒 2. WebShop
Buy the specific item + Option + Luck directly from the Webshop.
Pros: Instant & Precise
Cons: Costs WebShop Credits
Tip: You can also use a Jewel of Excellent to manually add options to a normal item, or a Jewel of Luck to add the Luck attribute.

Step 2: Preparation (Crucial)

Before turning the item Ancient, you must prepare it. Follow this exact order to save time and precious resources:
  1. Upgrade to +13: Essential to unlock the Harmony option slot.
  2. Add Jewel of Life: Upgrade the item to +28 additional defense (Max).
  3. Add Harmony (Yellow Option):
    • Use a Jewel of Harmony to add a yellow option.
    • Don't like the option? Remove it at NPC Jerridon (Aida) and try again.
⚠️ IMPORTANT
It is highly recommended to get your perfect Yellow Option before the next step. If you make the item Ancient first, you must use a Jewel of Extraction to remove a bad yellow option, and a Jewel of Ancient Harmony to add a new one. This is expensive!

The Final Application
To transform the item, simply drag and drop the Jewel of Ancient onto your fully prepared Excellent Item in your inventory.
Base Rate
50%
With Luck
75%
Outcomes:
✔️ Success: The item becomes a Semi Uber Ancient. It keeps its Excellent Options, Luck, and Harmony perfectly intact.
❌ Failure: The Jewel of Ancient disappears. The item remains safe and is not destroyed.
Cool-down Tip: If you fail 2-3 times in a row, wait 10 minutes or switch servers before trying again.

Community Theory: "The Skill Glitch"

🔮 The RNG Prediction Theory
Disclaimer: This is a player-discovered theory and is not officially confirmed by Administration. Use at your own discretion.
Some veteran players believe you can predict the success of a Jewel of Ancient by testing the server's RNG using a cheaper jewel first: the Jewel of Skill.
  1. Find a throw-away weapon.
  2. Apply a Jewel of Skill.
    • If the Skill Jewel FAILS: The RNG is "bad." Do not use your Jewel of Ancient yet.
    • If the Skill Jewel SUCCEEDS: The RNG is "good." Quickly apply your Jewel of Ancient to your main item.

Why Build Semi Ubers?

The Core of Play-to-Win
Semi Uber sets are the heart of InfinityMU's Play-to-Win philosophy. While Full Uber (Donor) sets have the absolute advantage of possessing "Reflect Damage" and "Defense Success" simultaneously, a meticulously crafted Semi Uber set allows non-donors to compete at an incredibly high level in PvP.

By participating in Automated Events and being active on the Forums, you can earn the rare Jewels necessary to craft this endgame gear and stand toe-to-toe with anyone on the server!
