Premium is a load of %#@*

Post by sting13 »

Ok so i was done my euro set finally, but i didnt get to pimp my glavie for my chinese before it ended, so last night i said fk it and tried, all stats were 0% except for AR which was 81%. NO PREMIUM. I had less alchemy luck when the damn premium was on :banghead: Whatever finally i have decent glavie to replace the one i destroyed (I know its not done). Do you guys find premium alchemy increase works at all?

The percentage on the stuff you blue isn't affected by premium, but rather succeeding.

Premium helps, but once again.. it doesn't help enough to see a difference. At least it didn't to me when I had prem for a couple months.

I thought that you get a 5% lucky increase which helps when +sing equips and a 10% alchemy probability which increases getting good blues :?

Anyways, did you get +5 without premium? Also no I find when i have a premium I get +3 and +4 easier but +5 is a different story 180 elexirs .. still hoping

So r u telling me the only reason you buy a prem is for the alchemy luck increase??
If not, and you actually use the other features, then why bitch???
Alchemy is ENTIRLY luck based. The % increases arent much.
And just because you do well without a prem, doesn’t make a premium worthless,
it just mean you had bad luck. The dice didn’t roll well for you that day.
If I give you a die and tell you you have to roll a 5 or 6 to win, .
and give you a luck rock that adds 1 to your rolls, that doesn’t mean you will roll 5 or 6 all the time.
You could STILL roll 1, 2, or 3 EVERY SINGLE ROLL! Then I take the luck stone back and you roll five 6's in a row
Is it the luck stones fault you suck of just your luck? (or you for even trying in the first place?)

its life, deal with it or gtfo.

Well, i find premium useful when adding blues, for +'s there are other things to take in mind rather than luck. Premium is not that much of a help when +'ing

+7'd my glaive second try with prem +. Took >500mil to make half a +6 set without prem. It does help, just not a lot. If the base luck is 1% chance and you have a 10% increase to that 1%, does it become 11% or 1.1%. :roll:

and how do u suppose to get the +7 without being scammed?
it's either i get the +7 first or after the +9 is sold for 1b. so i can either run with the +7 or him.
and it's an euro shield.. it's a bit cheaper than chinese's shields.

i probally would if i were you, that'd put you over 1 b, could probally make another sheild at least a plus 7 with that much and have alot to spare

edit you're chinese, sell that sheild you'd be happier with 950 m then a sheild you can't use
