Is alchemy worth it?

Post by skyline1731 »

I've spent couple hours looking for and buying elements for my spear. Made two stones and both of them failed. I probabaly wont do alchemy for a while or never. Are they really worth the trouble of collecting tablets and elements considering their low success rate?

it's worth it if you have money to spend on it. if you dont, then dont bother. but the success rate does blow some time's. i have gone threw 13 stone's, all of which failed, changed nothing, and 1 lowered something. so you have to take a risk.

but i have also had massive success with it, so it's really a gamble.

It's worth the effort only when you are sure you will be using that weapon for quite a while. For example High lvl weapons or SoS/SoM/SoSun weapons. Btw the more money you spend on it, the more you will get in return if you sell it.

But i found that my tablets began to overflow somehow...the ruby and jade needs more than 1 page each which is frustrating because i can't keep them in order...
