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 :D 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 :D

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 :(
