Its all a matter of chance and luck, as we all discovered.

Just in case the process of Enhancing Weapons has made anyone else wondering what pattern to use, even after reading all 9 pages of this thread.

I believe (after my own experience and 99% of this boards experience) that there is no Pattern. It is all Chance, it is Random and you are gambling with your weapon when trying to enhance it. If you don't use Cash Shop Stones IE; Blues Miles and Red Eyes when enhancing you will most likely break your weapon. If someone tells you they get +9 all the time without using Cash Shop Stones they are Lying to you.

Definitions in case there is still confusion.

chance Pronunciation[chans, chahns]
1. the absence of any cause of events that can be predicted, understood, or controlled: often personified or treated as a positive agency: Chance governs all.
2. luck or fortune: a game of chance.
3. a possibility or probability of anything happening: a fifty-percent (less if you enhance weapons when playing Fiesta) chance of success.
4. an opportune or favorable time; opportunity: Now is your chance.
5. Baseball. an opportunity to field the ball and make a put-out or assist.
6. a risk or hazard: Take a chance.

–adjective 1. proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers.

–verb (used without object)
1. to play at any game of chance for money or other stakes.
2. to stake or risk money, or anything of value, on the outcome of something involving chance: to gamble on a toss of the dice.
–verb (used with object)
3. to lose or squander by betting (usually fol. by away): He gambled all his hard-earned money away in one night.

I know and have seen +9 items made before the CS items were out. It's impossible, just very unlikely.

I always use the bottom center spot and it works about 80% of the time. I don't want to have to memorise a pattern, so I'm not going to

If I am in desperate need of a +9 or something then I'll just buy it, I'm not going to waste time trying to enhance one when it probably wouldn't work anyway

I swear to god I must be the most unlucky person ever. All you people talking about getting to +6 easily are making me want to pull my freaking hair out.

I just broke my lvl 30 sword trying to get it from +3 to +4.........then bought another one and had it break on the FIRST TRY to +1. Bye bye 36 silver and the +3 I had on it before the first one broke.

Enchanting is a joke.

Level 30 is Tier 2.

I will try both of these paterns. I have plenty of money to spend. So yeah. I will check them and let you know if either of them work

EDIT: Okay...I just tried both patterns and neither of them worked for me. I believe it is random. One of the patterns took my weapon to +4 and broke and the other one took it to +5 and broke. Sorry mate, it's random

Samson007 · 06-28-2008, 04:07 AM

Ok im not pissed off anymore =p

Cooled down a bit. I was close to being able to make my own Tier 2 Elrues so I worked on that until I could make my own. Used all the Dims I had saved up since I started the character and got both my lvl 30 sword and shield to +3 without any breaks. At one point it did fail 3 times in a row.....but didn't even downgrade once during that streak.

You gotta wonder what the actual percentages are on breaking, staying the same, and downgrading as you progress up the ladder.

Lol i got my axe to +8 and had to go for 9

BROKE pwned oh well... there goes at least 80s

Im sure the game generates the Success location at random, that it would be impossible to work out some kind of Patern, but hey we all love our chances "_"
