Starting out I would like to say, I did review older post but they don't seem to answer my dilemma.

Cerrently I am using:
Ash Tail Cap and Coat, Mighty Defender, and Ascended Calibur.

Can you still upgrade equipments if it exceed the level that the recipe may require?

I only ask because I tried to upgrade the blaster I had to super blaster, but it didn't work because my blaster was level 10.

If you can still upgrade if level exceed, does this only apply to higher tier equipment? ( like super blaster to master blaster, etc. )

This is by no means a fully comprehensive list of popular materials, but it is a listing of some of the more popular materials and an average, reasonable price over time. Keep in mind that prices are very much subject to the supply of said material (what gates are in rotation). It is not unusual for the price of a material to be double or half of what is listed here, so it behooves the reader to confirm current prices by checking the Auction House. The most stable market tends to be 2-3* materials; shards and 4-5* materials tend to fluctuate a lot.

Can anyone teach me how to change my personal colour please!!!

I don't know if this is the right section but, can anyone tell me what to install to make Sk run faster?

So, I bought the Jelly Armor set (Helm, Mail, Shield), hoping to use it ingame, and then also use it in a recipe to make brute jelly armor. I bought a Brute Jelly Helm Recipe, and I have all of the materials and Crowns/CE I need to make it, but it won't let me upgrade my Jelly Helm. It simply does not appear when I try to use it in the recipe.
Are bound items not allowed to be upgraded?

I really want to get Sealed Sword, mostly for Faust, and I was wondering if I should do so, or upgrade my Calibur. Yes, I know Leviathan is one of the best weapons (it's the jack-of-all-trades), but the Gran Faust deals Curse (yes, I am aware that you can receive it, too), and with Curse, Jelly King will be an easy target. Or should I get the Sealed Sword, and upgrade my Calibur, so I can have two blades to help me?

So, as a new player and a math-oriented thinker, I immediately start thinking about how to expand my playtime by taking the costs and profit to see what makes the most sense to do.

Tier 1:
-Energy Cost: 60 Energy (0+10+10+10+0+10+10+10)
-Crown Cost: 0
-Crowns Gained (Average): _____

Tier 2:
-Energy Cost: 80 Energy (0+10+10+10+10+0+10+10+10+10)
-Crown Cost: 200* (Optional - Skip T1)
-Crowns Gained (Average): _____
*More math on this to come

Tier 3:
-Energy Cost: 90 Energy (0+10+10+10+10+0+10+10+10+10+10)
-Crown Cost: 500** (Optional - Skip T1)

In the volcanic plate helm, does anyone know if the visor colour changes depending on personal colour? If so, does armour colour change as well?

I have been wondering for some time, whether there is some special terminal to go to if I want to get to a boss, (Jelly King, etc.) cause if it's just random it's gonna take a while for me to get those tokens up :P
