Cauldron of Sora Katra
The Cauldron of Sora Katra is the Crafting device for items with the Fusible, Malleable, Fragmented or Battle-Scarred attributes. These items come from quests found in Lordsmarch Plaza. The Cauldron is located in the southwest corner of Lordsmarch Plaza, to the south of the palace entrance.
Note that the non-upgraded versions of most of these items are Bound to Account on Acquire

Also, if you want to swap the +5 stat versions of the Wrath of Sora Kell Set items between your account via the Shared Bank, you shouldn't upgrade them.
