Enhancing Patterns (Guide)

[toolrocket]

Ok, lets get this hashed out once and for all.

Let say these are the numbers of the positions on the smith's Enhancing Wheel of Financial Misery or EWoFM as i like to call it.

Going around clockwise...
Top: 1
Top Right: 2
Right: 3
Bottom Right: 4
Bottom: 5
Bottom Left: 6
Left: 7
Top Left: 8

I've combed the forums here, and only found 2 patterns which people say are effective for enhancing, they go something like this.

Option 1: Hard to understand the author, not sure about Part 9.
+1, Position 1 (Top Center)
+2, Pos. 6 (Bottom Left)
+3, 1
+4, 8
+5, 3
+6, 8
+7, 3
+8, 6
+9, Unknown

Option 2: Hard to decipher the author's intention, but gives all +9
+1, 1
+2, 3
+3, 5
+4, 4
+5, 7
+6, 2
+7, 5
+8, 1
+9, 5

Not sure if these work, and i've never tried it. Can anybody corroborate this or can anybody post their own solution? Or is this all bogus and it's totally random?

To me it's been random. I always start with position 3 and it's always a hit or miss deal.

I've heard of these before, someones told me a pattern, but I didn't memorize. But I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't work. I mean hell, doesn't hurt trying if they really are random, and if you have perfects lol.
I'll test it out if I ever get any Xir and perfects lol.

I was so hoping you two would say "oh you mean you've never heard of the secret fool proof pattern? it's X, Y and Z..."

[.o0O0O0o.]

lol it wouldn't be a secret if we told you

[Yosei]

Lol, I'm not that 1337 ;~; But I will try it out. I only wrote down +7 and up, since my staff is +6.

A lucky at top square usually works for me.

once i've got two bows in a row to +6 using the same "pattern"

but that pattern stopped working on the 3rd bow...

i think its pretty random...

I think it's random, since I got a bow in apoline to +7 using all the top center one.
But..I'll try out both methods once i get more $$ and report it

[Hessah]

did u get it to +7 with JUST the top centre?
