Anyone has any tips to +4 your weapons / shields?

Initially i got a +4 Lv 52 shield. I mistaken it for a Lv 56 shield which I want to plus +4 and BOOM!

My Lv 52 +4 shield is +0.

With the rising price of elixiers, anyone care to share some tips?

PS: Don't tell me to add lucky stone because it's too expensive for me

try all u got at once
items which fails at + 3 usually works with 12 elixirs if u worked them on a row .. + try +ing after using them for a bit if they are + 3 and wanna go for + 4

The method that seems to work best for me is to try to buy 2 or more of the item and try to see if one of em is lucky enough to +4. I did it recently w/ 2 lvl 64 blades and i managed to +4 one of them on the first try. The other one i didnt have that much good luck on.

Items have their own luck value, so if an item doesn't seem to be getting to say +2 or +3, there is basically no way you will reach +4. Sure with enough elxirs you will get there eventually but it'll be very expensive.

+1 XDD

and dont forget to cross your fingers...

Yea just prey .. if you believe god (no offense buddists or whatever religion) and dont forget.. ghost walk into the pot chick and look her way and then try it man

Its all luck kid... I have a 72 +5 spear now, it got there in one try. My 72 +3 sword on the other hand took 85 elixers and wouldn't go +4 at all, its still sitting at +3 as you can see. The secret: just be rich and be ready to use a lot of elixers.

My method >>>

Day 1 - 2 Elixers (and lucky), if at +2 then >>>

Day 2 - 1 more, if at +3 then >>>

Day 3 - 1 more, if at +4 then >>>

Astral and Immortal, and try another.

I don't know why but seems to work best for me.

If I sit and keep adding I usually fail.

Since I began doing this way I've had a 64+7 sword, no fails on the way.

And my current sword is 64+4, waiting for payday to astral it's sweet azz.

As Ryoko said in his thread on this subject, if it fails a couple of times on it's way to +4, get rid of the weapon and try another because that weapon is probabl unlucky.

i void rondo'd a 52 bow that failed to +6

WTF with all double posting ?

No you can't void rondo equip. You destroy it. =p

Yesh, I always destroy it for elements if I can't make it to +4 after several attempts. Who knows I might get "Unlucky stone" lol

i think every non-blue item has greater chances of +'ing.. my friend used to + lv 64 stuff all the time.. he'd go to +5 and sometimes +6 without astral.. the key is.. money and time.. oh and I've personally learned, if an item goes to +3 easily, it'll likely go to +4 easily as well.. if you have trouble even +2'ing something.. don't waste your time trying to +5... i had an sos 52+5.. and i made it from scratch.. it had 1 blue (immortal) and okay stats.. it did take me like 5m or so to +5 it... so it wasnt like it was easy.. it was the hardest thing to +. that i've ever done.. i also found a trick with resetting your luck on +'ing things.. if you fail a jade stone, you have greater chances of the next jade stone or elixir working.. thats my personal belief and that's how i've +5'd 3 things.. I +5'd 2 other things without fail, and I knew they'd work cuz they went to +3 right away, so I waited an hour and went +4

Tried to +4 my SOS blade from +3...and it failed(who woulda thunk?????). But I just wanted to let you know that I followed this technique word for word, and it's now back at +3. from 1-3 I had no fails...but I think I'll wait for elixers to go down before I try +4...or at least till I'm not using it anymore.
Good method.

I close my eyes, hear the sound and then look.
NB! Doesnt work...

And I also cook them at my storage for a while. Then take em and go outside of down.
