on this topic, how hard is it to get to +7 without astral?
i had a nice 72+5 sword all along, very good stats, managed to gain a d8 luck stone and added it few weeks ago. waited, waited, thought abt it, waited some more. then last wk right after inspection i thought, heck lets try it. went to DW behind storage, add elixir+lucky powder...
BOOM! failed

and even ate up 1xsteady(thank goodness i had sense to put steady). in the end i blew up all my elixirs, and bought maybe 100 to 200 more before it finally got back to +5, on the 2nd day no less
total damage ard 50mill. i really feel kinda dumb...50mill and no change in weapon.
so, dont ever ever think that you have too many elixirs. when its not your day, no matter 2pages, 3pages, 5pages, all will be gone faster than you can blink your eye.
