I learned this from a friend who plays with alchemy alot and I just wanna share how it works for the benefit of the unknown.
How to get Advance Elixers A or B?- This can be obtained by destroying SEALED items (SoS,SoM,Sun) of any level
ONLY regardless of how many plus and blues. And to acquire Advance Elix for a certain degree, you need to destroy those sealed items which has 1 degree lower. For example, your 8d Level 64 Bow, if you like to use an advance elix for it and acquire it your own without buying from a friend or stalls then look for sealed 7d gears and destroy it. But unfortunately, destroying gears don't always guarantee for an advance elixer, still it is randomed. I guess with same probability(not sure) on acquiring Alchemic Stones from destroying blue items.
Probability of success?- Its 100% success. No need for lucky owders, immo, astral etc. Don't worry.
Difference between Advance Elixer A and B?- Advance Elixer Grade A gaurantees a +1 on success while Grade B will add +2. Thus, Grade be is worth using compared to A. But it is also more rare in terms of acquiring it. They say you can usually extract Grade B from a Seal of Sun gears (weapon in particular). We are not sure but it's worth trying especially when you really want to +10 or +11 or higher your SEALED primary weapon.
Where can be used?- Advance Elixers can be applied to all gears for only ONCE. Once applied, forget about applying adv elix on the same particular gear you have. In terms of Elixer Degree, it can be used to gears with the same degree or lower. For example, again for your 8d bow and assuming you already have your 8th deg adv elix, you can apply it to your 7d, 6d, 5d and so on gears if you want to..but definitely not for 9d or higher. Thus, 11th degree Advance Elixer can be used in from 1st deg to 10th deg.
When best to use?- Well, you can use it as long as you like.. but I suggest you gotta be smart at least. Just decide on what would be the highest plus(+) you want for your gear. This usually applies for last degree gears (specially a Nova).
For example scenario, you already have your
+7 Seal of Nova Bow and
one 11th deg Weapon Advance Elixer Grade A. Now you decided to make it +10 no matter what, then try your best to make it +8 first with regular weapon elixers. If you are successful, then what's next?
- Should I go to +9 with regular elixer hoping for a heck of success then use my ONLY adv elix grade A after for +10?
- Or wait till there is somebody storing or selling an adv elix Grade B which has a relatively high price(might be around 1b) because of it's effect. It your choice.
Hope this info helps.
