i spend 20plus stones and it keep succeed but its either like 12 becomes 12 or drop back to 10 and then 10 becomes 10 again for another 10 stones and maybe 14 in every 30 stone, thats the highest it goes for me

Normally ppl would do few a day and then wait till the next day and buy more stones to try again. I think the best way is to buy as many stones as you can until you got like 20-30 stones, 30%,20%,10%

Use those stones in one go. I find it easier to get a good result if i do alot in one day rather than few in a day n fail alllll the time.

This is what you do, when the value is at 0% you use your 30% stone, when its at a percentage thats at the high side, you use 10%. It drop back to 0%? Use 30% Stone again, that way, you dont need to buy only 10% stones.

switch to bow rofl

hehehe jk, good luck

I think joymax programmed the most popular stones to fail more often than others. I used a magic reinforcement for protectors stone and first or second try it went high on 3 of my items lol.

i had a cursed 64+5 shield, i bought it dirt cheap, it had full blues 100% and was +5, but the br was 10, over the time i used it, i tried 19 stones, 12 failed and the 7 that succeeded did this everytime br10>10
but i sold it for 3x what i paid for it...poor fool who bought it

ps i only ever had 1 assim on it, changed critical from 100% to 0%, but a friend changed it back to 100% first stone :S

Don't make me dig out my screen shot of me practically failing 12 straight INT stones on my talisman -_-

Honestly, unless your filthy rich, you might as well buy one with a br of 16 or your going to end up spending more than the shields worth. I used a 10% str stone on my 72+5 shield and my br asimilated from 16 to 10 - I used 26 stones to get it back to 16.... and I have the premium ticket.

gooooooood luck

you're really unlucky lol. Maybe they just made the popular stones fail more cuz like you, I very rarely have some obscure stone that nobody uses fail

the more blues that are already on your item, the more stones fail on it. Kinda the same as with Elixers. Trust me, nobody does more alchemy than me and I've totally proved it like 100 times on all my gear. I had 4 int stones in a row work on a completely white item and at least 6 stamina stones fail in a row on an item with 5 blues already

Colb · Post by **Colb** » Sat Jun 09, 2007 8:28 am

Yeah, I've figured out that part long ago... funny thing is, the talisman had only INT 1 on them and were +2. I only kept trying because it had 83% magic defense
