Use demi-human encounters as a source category to test, not as proof that every demi-human drops it. Confirm Polished Slab by name in the post-battle loot list before repeating a route.
What Polished Slab is
A fragment of metal meticulously polished by demi-humans. It has been buffed with obsessive thoroughness. A seemingly perfect crafting component for weapons requiring accuracy.
The description is useful for identifying the material family and likely source category. It is not enough to publish a precise map pin or drop percentage, so this page separates confirmed item data from route leads.

Polished Slab recipes and uses
| Result or use | Amount | Evidence note |

Community recipe indexes are useful for planning a shopping list, but the live Smithy remains authoritative for availability, cost and whether a blueprint or Cardinal Rank gate is still missing.
Farm without wasting a quest
- Open the Smithy recipe first and confirm how many copies are needed.
- Activate the nearest Safety Area or Warp Terminal before testing a route.
- Fight the smallest repeatable enemy group that matches the current source clue.
- Check the loot notification after every run and stop if the expected material never appears.
- Return with enough material for the recipe rather than filling inventory without a target.
Polished Slab FAQ
Is there a confirmed drop rate?
No verified rate is present in the current local export. A percentage should only be added after a versioned drop table or a sufficiently large repeat test is available.
Why is the material not at the Smithy?
Owning a material does not guarantee that every related recipe is already visible. Recipe availability can depend on discovered blueprints, story progress, towns and Cardinal Rank.
Should I sell spare copies?
Keep enough for the recipe you are actively targeting and avoid selling the last copies of a material whose acquisition route is still uncertain.
