Crafting Viability

[Alabore]

if it takes 100 paralyzers to make a paralyzer,
...
The ratios need to be adjusted.

I am not sure.
While you COULD disjoint holy to make holy, you would be much better off disjointing ardour, devotion, sustenance and so on.

The assumption you *need* to disjoint a paralyser to make a paralyser does not seem correct.
That is not how full crafting is supposed to work and tick under the hood.

You could craft a paralyser - you can't yet, if I'm reading the wiki right, btw... - without ever touching a paralyser.
You can craft holy without ever crunching a single holy weapon.
You can craft metalline by tearing true chaos, shattermantle and maiming down.

What matters is essence type, not the original item you stripped them from.
