Another thing in Enhancement_Stones:

But lucky elrue[1] which is the more succesful has only 13%.
The 17% is a mistake between lucky and bless or there is a mechanism that i missed?
Thx for your work! Wiki help me a lot.
Blessed Elrue[1] increases success rate by 17%, the Lucky Elrue[1] counterpart increases it by 13%. And if you use Lucky Elrue[1], 35% of the successes raise enhancement by 2 levels.

I find the "Lucky Sucess Rate" misleading - what about the inherent rate of success? Currently, the probability listed is just P(lucky stone's contribution to success) * P(getting lucky when successful). However, there's also P(inherent probability of success) * P(getting lucky when successful).
