FAIL, and the item was destroyed.. my sro life with alchemy has SUCKED!, never gottin past +4, but atleast i was able to get my hands on my new sos sword

Your Lieing.

An item can not destroy when going +5, only +6 or more

it failed and went away.. i might have misplaced it, but i dont have it anymore.

An item can be destroyed going from +4 to +5, just the chance of it happening is very small compared to going above +5.

Sorry to hear about your shield.

You're lying*


The possibility of breaking from 4->5 is slim, sucks to hear that =\

Then again, better than breaking from 5->6 right?

It's so rare that it's thought to be impossible. But it can and does happen.

Sorry to hear that about your shield

Going from +4->+5 it is EXTREMELY rare for it to break, however once above +4, it is entirely possible to break. I tried to make tons of things +5 without immortal and astral, luckily none have broken, and lets hope i dont break my euro shield and sword when making them +5

well, i was surprised to see that it broke and i didnt have it anymore, i mean it was a basic lvl 32 shield with good %'s and some blues. good thing it wasnt an sox

He's not lying.
Tried to +5 a 68 glavie for my friend, got right to +4 then >Snap.
I thought it was 5>6 too... Until that.

you can brake items for +0->+1 but the chances are slim, you have about 0,001% chance to brake the item.

the only reason people think it only breaks from +5->+6 it because the slim chances for it to brake before that point.

wow, and hes very lucky to be able to break a weapon from +4 > +5 ^^

never happen to me thought.

Are you serious? I never thought that was possible...

Nothing is impossible with JM. Even +0->+1 with lucky powder could fail

srry to about your loss

but thats almost impossible

got the shield to +1 again, and failed at +2... DO'H

ok got it to + AGAIN, and it just failed at +2... ...

Don't feel bad, everytime you break something just think about the people who have broken 8d sun items. Works for me everytime.

i know not to feel bad, but today SUCKS, lol, i just tried to add int and str stone onto my sword, failed both.

ill + the stuff next time for you im pretty lucky with alchemy also im thinking about +5 my shield and blade and btw to the guy with the euro shield that had 19 br i have one of thoes if u want it on oasis not sure if ur in same server

the worst thing is also the price of elixers has gone up, i was looking at the stall network, weapon elixs were 300k, shield were 100k, prot were 200k, and the accessorys were still low around, 30-60k
