OK...i want to +5 my shield. I always go to +3 with shield easy...so my question is - make +5 shield is easier than weapon?

Sometimes i can hardly +3 my weap...but easy with shields =/ So, is it worth to try +5 shield? How much elixirs you used to +5 SHIELD?

Thx

Well considering the fact you can find shield elixirs much cheaper than weapon elixirs, it should be easier to +5 a shield and it's worth it. For some reason i get the worst luck on shields and accessories but that's just from my personal experience.

it should be easy since shield elixrs cost like 40k and weapon around 180k

Yup, agree with the fact that shield elixirs are cheaper, so it is easier to enchangt a shield. However, each item has its own natural alchemy % of success. So if you could easily +4 that shield, you have a good chance to +5.

I personally find it easier to +5 a shield rather then +5 a weapon when +ing them that is, could be just me though =)

+5'ing shield is sooooooo easy b/c shield elxrs are dirt cheap...i can get one in under 50 elixirs usually

well like i saind on other topic i hate alchemy...

even if the elixirs cost less doesnt mean its gona be easier to make it +5...

a friend of mine had 2 72+7 swords and 1 lvl72+7 shield

he said im try to make +9 cuz he got them to +7 kinda easy...

so guess what happend?... the sword went puff!! and the shield to +0
lost like 400m right there (venice server)

but i guess +5 is easier but i wouldnt do it ive tried it and spend too much...

I tried to +4 my shield back in the days because i thought it was easier.

I use every shield elixir i had and failed at +2 more times than i can count.
