Damn!!

Here i though a premium and lucky stone would no doubt get me a +7... sadly i failed. Now i bought like 5-6 astrals (lvl8) and i still cant even get +5, with premium... seriously... since when did Korea become a capitalist nation... gosh i swear this alchemy system needs a re-vamp, the worst one i seen in any MMORPG.

I have failed trying to go from +6---> +7 a total of 28 Times now

Each time with lucky,astral, immortal, steady, and premium ticket.

I shed a tear for you.

I weep for myself until the day I die.

Nah it's fine as it is. If it were made easier . then everyone would have +5 / +7 possibly +9's. Would be a bore.

You know better than to use astral :P I got my 72 glaive +7 first try only adding 1 immortal. Just try it sometime .. no astral and NO luck stone.

For me and for many other people .. luck stones are frikking fail stones.

Try not using astral. :roll:
There tonnes of people that got to +7 without astral maybe you should try it but use immortal if you feel its going to break.

I wish i was rich... i would buy out JoyMax :)
But this has gone on for to long... its totally unfair... there is no way its "random" because weapons which can hit +7 can continue to reach +7, while others which have never gone past +6... will probably never hit +7. I tried +7 3-4 times now... geez! :(

I dont mind failing much in alchemy, but it sux when I hear others who dont spend a cent on silk getting +9 wpns (and I know a couple of them).

Sry to hear you spend so much though, but thats the problem with alchemy. Luck is a fickle little thing.

yea it probably took me 900 silk to get my spear back to +7 after failing to 8. it went 7 in 2 elixers the first time, then took hundreds of silk just to get to 6.

i'm content with plus 3, because i can fail at every plus 4 (well i got plus 4, one time, then again going for 5 despite having lucky on the damn thing, it fails), i agree they need to make alchemy have more chance to succede, from what i've heard in WoW there are skills to make it better, so classes like warlock and cleric would have ways to enchant better (holy and evil energies makes sense) or at least tell you the odds for the next step when putting elixirs in (oh wait, they won't do that because its 0%).

And since euro they either made alchemy fail more , or its just my luck, i have a hell of a time just making plus 3, i go so broke after i plus 2 weapon (fricken plus 3 failed every time i'm broke, 8 mill and i can't fricken make a npc cleric rod +3, i can still get my sheilds plus 3 sort of) but the fail rates do seam higher.

It's a sign telling you don't bother.
