On my 68 Bow, got +5 in 40+ elixirs....i stopped counting cause it was so depressing, lol.

On my 72 Bow, took 5 elixirs. Gonna astral that puppy up and go for +7.

Its all luck.

I tried to +3 a sword once. It was a damned sword, keep failing at +1 and+2 can u believe that?? I kept adding elixirs while I was chatting with a friend, and added and added... when i looked to see it it went all the way to +3.. BANG !!! it was +4 :shock:

The next day I added 1 weap elixir and my sword went to +5

I don't know the exact number of elixirs i added but i think it was above 30-40.

I'd say the enchantment succes depends on how many fails the item had or maybe there is an unseen "luck" on itemz

this is about as bad as asking when TG pops....it can take 5-infinite, there is no guarantee that you will ever get to 5 :wink:

Hmmm, my noob char can go to +5 without astrals.

It kinda variates tho. If Im lucky and its a good item its easy...
If the item isnt that well made for alchemy i dont keep going.

But i usually go from +0 to +5 in 5 elixirs. If i cant get to +5 within 3 tries i give up for a few days and try again.

I bought a 52+0 glaive crit 6 phy 61%

I went from +0 to +4 in one run and asked my union if i should keep going. They said "do it" so i put in another elixir and another lucky powder pressed fuse and closed my eyes. I was surprised it would work because i had a very nice 48 glaive with amazing percentages on which i went to +4 twice in a row and never got it to +5. So then i thought the 42 sos bow was the only thing i would ever +5. But surprise surprise i made that 52 glaive +5. I tried to change the crit and after 10 stones of failing the crit finally changed....................... ----> Critical 6->2

DANG!! after i spent 20mil on tabs stones and elements the crit is only 5 (i can only have it at 2 or 5) and my physical changed from 61% to 0%

+5 is so easy therefor my alchemy stones seem so much harder
