yes.

look at bottom of stone stats

sais assimmilation % or something.

10,20 or 30%.

higher the number, higher chance other stat will change.

Whenever you use a stone there is a chance it will change something else. Its called assimilation. On the bottom of the stone youll see your assimilation probability (10%, 20%, or 30%). Thats the chance you have that it will change something else as well. Sometimes it makes it go up, but usually it makes it go down.

ahh i see, how many other stats does it usually change 1? or more?

Most stones range from 10-30% some stones are 0% such as steady luck astral immortal. Also when you get stones from breaking down equip the % can be as high as 35% and low as 5%. Lower % = less chance of it affecting another stat. The stone can only change another stat when that stone is successful, failed stone do not change other stats. If another stat besides the one specified by the stone is affected it may be raised or lowered from its current amount(most of the time lowered...usually to 0%) Only one stat can be altered besides the one the stone is designed to alter. Usually it is the white stats on equip that are affected but i have had pink stones affect blue stats (not sure if green mag stones can alter other blues...never happened to me before). So if u have a stat that u dont want to risk like a high crit or blk spend the extra money to buy 10% stones. Even with 10% stones your not safe though so just be carefull...I have lost nice whites with all assimilation %'s

Yup, everybody else got everything else pritty much cleared up.

But there is one more thing, 0% stones obviously wont change anything, and they CANNOT fail. But 0% stones are only for Steady, immortal (silk item), Astral (silk item) and lucky.
