Enhancing Patterns (Guide)

[Hazu]

I usually put it in same square, only broke one weapon doing it, and enchanced like 5.
1 to +5 the rest to +3
^^ I think its just random, hit or miss

It's pure randomness, and i've broken tons of wepons... :'(

Mmm let's see... my gut feeling is that one could figure out a pattern for the lower lvls (maybe just +1 or something if you're consistent). The earlier post about computer-generated randomness is correct. It's technically not random, but it's "pseudo-random" because an algorithm generates this randomness; however, it's probably really easy to jumble it up completely.

For example, they could have the randomness based on the current time, or how many items your character currently has in his/her inventory - anything and any combination. So it probably becomes so difficult to find a pattern that it can be deemed impossible.

Having said that though, I'll probably play around with low lvl enhancement after reading these posts when I get time to do it ^^.

There is no pattern.

...I've said it like 3 times now.

You know, we aren't just saying there's no pattern. It's in the game's files. Random numbers generated.

I read all the times you said random ^^. And as a person who's had some (not extensive) coding experience, I'm telling you that there is no "true" random. The random numbers generated are seeded based on some factors which are unknown to me.

While you're correct in that given the current coding languages there is no way of writing/using a true random number algorithm, Fiesta (and any other videogames) is probably using a library PNRG, which generates enough randomness (patterns will emerge after loops in the tens of thousands).

i tryed the option 2...
got +7 hammer n +6 shield, tryed hammer to +8 and failed...so the end of it is wrong. :/
