So instead of crafting in this chapter we have Refining. Refining is awful simply because it has an added time sink in the form of failures. You give an item and he will try to improve it. If he fails, nothing happens and you get the item back. But, each time you offer an item he goes through a stupid cutscene process that takes too long even with fast forwarding with an emulator. So imagine each failure adding another set of cutscenes you have to go through.

Furthermore, it is possible for him to refine an item several stages, skipping an item you may want (and may be even stronger than the upper tier item that was made). Not much you can do about this but find another item or load a save. It really is a troublesome mechanic.
