Odds of enchantments

GR8_Scotts · 03-31-2009, 03:43 PM

Hello - I would like to start a thread on item enchantment best practices - that is, what has worked for you? Goal is to find a good approach to limit the number of BREAKS (uggh!!!), wasted material and wasted SC on Golds, Reds and Blues.
Best responses include - level of item, level of enchanter, title of enchanter (if you have one), items used and success / failure rate.

There IS a process that determines the probability of success, otherwise the % increase from special stones (bless / lucky) and need for SC items would be meaningless. My goal (with your help) is to find it... thanks in advance!

> Enhancement Stones <

Gandalfa82 created a fairly concrete table of all the hardcoded statistics about enhancements.

A typical example is the enhancement of a T3 weapon that has a base success probability of x, from using Blessed stones.

For up to +3, Blessed Elrue [3] is used: 9%
up to +6, Blessed Lix [3]: 8%
to +9, Blessed Xir [3]: 4.5%

A big fall from Lix to Xir, as is with all the other tiers. This explains why everyone needs more Xir stones than the other two.

Besides it being the wrong are to post in,

Chances of enhancement are about 75% at tier 1.
Chances of enhancement are about 64% at tier 2
Chances of enhancement are about 41% at tier 3
Chances of enhancement are about 26% at tier 4

These estimates are WITHOUT enhancement items, Assuming you use a gold, Add 15% to any chance.

Numbers might be slightly off, but that's about it.

Now those are some throwaway comments. Surely anything disregarding the Elrue/Lix/Xir divide can't be correct

I read this on some Korean site, And the percentages could be different over here, but they are all based on using a Plain Elrue For the First enhance

Like i said, the numbers could be off, Or different, You know how Outspark likes to scare you into buying enhancers.

And as for the t4, I think that's a pretty accurate number, Considering how hard it is to enhance it without reds, and golds, But i digress.

How dare you criticize Outspark's marketing strategy

in no time you'll be plagued by the forum gesta... Ah, thank goodness this isn't the outspark forums.

With the addition of 'Elrue', and 'first enhance', your above figures are now fairly credible, yup.

I'd have to comb google to find the site again, but they had the percentages of success with Lix and Xir aswell, And also the percentage if they were Lucky/blessed.
