You can buy a +7 blade for less than 24mil :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
I buy ready weapons and save myself the trouble.

You could have bought a sos+5 for less than that :banghead:

The most i lost on alchemy so far was when i tried to +3 a Bow for a friend. I wasted 7 elixers and ended with a +0 :cry:

If i can't +3 it within 6 elixers i usualy don't bother anymore, cause i'm not waisting money on something i can buy for less.

But on the other hand i'm prepairing to +5 my spear without astral or lucky on it :D

I have never gotten an item passed +3 ... Seems to always fail on me. So I decided to do the same. Buy ready made items. Since I lvl without a ticket its easy to buy those mostly. (Although sometimes with all the blues on people do seem to ask a little over the edge)

When you have something that fails to +1 WITH LUCKY powder then you have earned the right to complain... :D I hate alchemy, i make my guildies do it for me.. I don't know if its just pure chance or not, but i tend to pass an item around to my guildies and tell em "Up this peice of shit" , and it always ends up where i want it :D

You can't fail +1 with lucky elixirs.

And yes, Lunar Blade is 5th degree.

all the other weapons i had, i went straight to +4, no problems, not once.

Oh well, its just a game really. Its not that big of a deal. i make about 1 mil in a couple days anyway, if i try. Either way. This is my first character and i dont have 500 mil to blow on weapons and armor.

On top of that, i have only EVER saw 1 single +5 holy lunar blade in stalls (in about 2 weeks of searching), and the guy wanted about 50 mill for it. Then the SOS with 2 int and 2 strength was 55 mil. I guess holy lunar blades are hard to come by :(.

Yes you can fail +1 with lucky elixers! Although there is like a 90% chance, some people like me have just bad luck with items. I did fail a few times when trying to +1 an item WITH lucky powder.

a 5 degree blade should never ever ever ever ever cost more than 20 mil... unless its somoon or sosun.... you could have gotten sos+5 for like 20 mil... or less.... probably less.

No way using 100 elixirs and not even getting to +2 once, thats impossible.

@ Shockertwin WoW Much gold you lost there.
But if you not succes 10 time is only waste to try more. is better try on another weapon if you dont make it over +2-3

And nope i dont feel like donating - :twisted:

If it can't +2 after 4 elixirs, just give up. Some items won't add +'s well at all, especially if you continuously fail alchemy on them.
