My main character has some of the worst luck I've seen. He can't even get a piece of armor to +2 without using 4 or more protector elixirs (yes I use lucky powder). General alchemy using stones was problematic as well as I failed 5 of 6 tries, and when I did succeed I'd get like +1 to an attribute or 20 hp.

Recently I've been 'fixing up' my 6th degree gear for my nuker. She has her failures, but man does she have successes. The other night I made a 52 ring +5 str (1 try), +3 int (1 try) and 10% freeze reduce (2 tries).

I've also gotten 200 hp on a couple items as well.

Last night I put +5 int on a ring on the first try that already had 3 str.

I have found that I get the best success from non blue items, but maybe thats just me.

The really nice news is that I haven't had any negative assimilations either. It's about time I had some luck, now if I could just get an SOS drop.

Anyways I wanted to post some happy news.

thats strange, i am the opposite, my stuff seems to work better plussing them when they are already blue


but yea, i have had some good luck lately too,


gave a hat 200hp, 4 int and plus2 it

gave all my gear some sort of blues that were not there before :)

and made my lvl 48 spear +5 with only about 4 elixers (from +3)

maybe alchemy success rates have changed?

others have suggested that alchemy luck is character specific. I'd tend to agree after this rash of goodness.

WTF...Are you sure you spend 10M to + 3 your weapon???
That's a lot man.. :banghead: :banghead:
Do you +3 during lag??
It's better you try when the server is not lag..Success rate more higher..
