At chapter 6, with 23 spare abyss ar tifacts on hard mode….

… aaaand, I just don’t get why people seem to think there’s such a defect of these things. Most skills can be learned by watching people so you don’t need to invest them into that needlessly. And you don’t need to dump them into every item you own.

I’ve upgraded just a single sword using them, and that was only to tier 6. The rest of my gear I’ve only upgraded to just before where they need abyss artifacts.

No issues at all this far.
