Hi all,

I having this problem:

When i try to knock my critical ratio 100% on my shield a few time.
And i got this msg when i fail on the stone. Mag def drop from 118.9 to 117.2 ...

I always thought when i hit jade tab then only the blues will be affected??? Somemore it was affected when stone failure.... Does it cause by assilmation??? Or when a stone fail , it will affect all sort of state regardless of ruby or jade ???

Pls enlighten me, as i wish to knock my STR n INT to 100% but was afraid my BR will drop due to failure of stone.

Ty in advanced.

It's the assimilation but try to stick to low assimilationstones (LOL, like if it's a matter of choice when it comes to str/int stones) and pray. gl

So assilmation does affect ur state even tho it failed??? I always tot it does affect when only success ....

But why izzit affecting ruby states when im knock jade stones .... i find it quite weird....

It is not weird. Each stone gives an assimilation chance. The stone itself clarifies what this means, although let me explain. Lets say you want to change your INT to +4, you use an INT stone with 30% assimilation chance. While it can add the INT to your item, it also has 30% chance to change an other ability (for good or worse!) Thats why people with a BIG blue item mostly want LOW assimilation chance and the way around.

But do assilmation occurs even when the stone is fail? Coz my states drop when the stone fail
