How the F..k can anyone even do anything good with it? Over the time i've been playing SRO I've spent about 50M on pacific and about 12M on venus trying to make weps +4 NEVER have I achieved it. Always use lucky powder.
HOW DO YOU DO IT?

I'm assuming you're +ing low level items..? If so, don't waste your time.. noone wants to buy things under 7d or 8d anymore, it's almost all about 9D. Just sell the elixirs, keep your gear at +3 until a higher level.

I am a strong believer that certain weapons are lucky, and others are not. I dont think your Place / Char / Time has anything to do with it. I myself have had tremendous luck with alchemy. With nearly 15 +9s, and a +11. However even with Premium Plus, i failed to make my Light Armor 84/85 Legs and Chest +3. I think i wasted about 50 Elixirs on them. My advice would be to find a lucky weapon and stick to it. Dont waste your time on things that constantly fail +2 and +3. I know your probably thinking "lucky weapon" WTF? But i have had weapons that have gone +4/5 every time, without exception. The key to alchemy is patience.

another proof that each item has it's hidden luck state is the lucky blue you can put on the item .
& i believe that lucky powder increase the chance of the process .
cuz i heard with each +ing you do the success rate decreases .
example : doing +1 --->100% success doing +2 --->50% success +3 --> 25%
you get the point .
