The [[Skill of Nilfur]] is a recipe for [[Kanai's Cube]] that converts a set item into another item from the same set. The roll is entirely random, in terms of which other item in the set is created, and the stats on that item. The same item will never reroll twice in a row, and this recipe only works on sets with three or more items.
The new set item is entirely random, including all stats and whether it is ([[Ancient Items|Ancient]] quality). It's as if the item just dropped from a monster or was [[gambled]] anew.
This recipe is designed to be used by players struggling to find the last item they need for a four or six-piece set bonus, as it lets them convert any spare item in that set, hoping to roll it to the type they need. The Hope of Cain is also powerful for upgrading items in a set, as converted items have a 10% chance to pop as Ancient.
==Convert Set Item==
The [[Skill of Nilfur]] recipe rolls a set item into another item from the same set. The item and the quality of the stats on it are entirely random. The only control is to use the item in the set that you do not want to appear. For instance if you have a great Ancient roll on the chest piece from a set, and you lacked the ingredients to do this recipe repeatedly, you'd want to convert any more of the Chest piece, since it would never roll into another chest, the slot where you did not need an upgrade.
[[Skill of Nilfur]]
* 1 Set Item
* 10 [[Death's Breath]]
* 50 [[Forgotten Soul]]s
:{{c_orange|''"...of the cave, ten Horadrim channeled powers arcane and mystic. Ten felt their sanity slipping away. And nine averted their eyes as the cube came alive."}}''<br>
:{{c_orange|--''fragment of the Dark Exile Scrolls.''}}
==Development==
When first tested in [[Patch 2.3]] on the PTR, this recipe worked on all sets, including two-piece sets. Players quickly realized this was a great way to roll and reroll the two-item sets, since there they knew exactly which item would result each time, and with only two items it was easy to roll until an ideal item resulted.
The two ring set [[Focus]]/[[Restraint]] was a popular roll, but classes that could use the two piece weapon sets [[Shenlong's]], [[Danetta's]], and [[Bul-Kathos']] gained the most, since weapons benefit so tremendously from rolling Ancient.
The developers immediately realized that two piece sets worked too well with this recipe.[https://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/3bw416/skill_of_nilfur_reforges_set_item_makes_item/csqahtk?context=3]
<blue>We are going to be changing this recipe. The intent of the convert set item recipe is to help players who are trying to finish a set and getting redundant pieces. The intent is not to get 2 Focus and reroll 1 repeatedly until it's perfect. As such changes will be coming before the feature launches to directly address this.

Players imagined many clever and complicated fixes to this, such as only allowing a given item to be rerolled several times, or increasing the recipe cost with each roll, a bit like enchanting works. Ultimately Blizzard went with a much simpler plan, and just removed two-piece sets from functioning with this set.
