We knew that every major update includes some new instances, some new gear slightly better thatn current ones, some new skins and fancy items and maybe new maps. So we were able to have our plans. We never had that felling before 4.0 about that a great part of our things and past effort will be just erased or totally useless in the incoming patch. Same mechanics, same maths, similar items. But if when we have an event like current one, and you find a lot of people ingame saying "yes, but you know the rates will be nerfed for sure, don´t you? it says so much about the image NCSoft created. Absolutely; we now know that our past efforts will be wasted within months because NCSoft is pumping up the gear turnover rate AKA shortening the expiration date on our current gear. It's not very rewarding farming for that +15 75AP gear with +9/+10 manastones when you know that you'll toss it aside half a year from now. Speaking of which, could someone actually confirm whether the stigma/tempering rates were nerfed for this event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stigmas on the other hand are ungodly bad at least for me and you need 30 to 50 of a stigma to try to get a 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesecake-DN Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Someone else posted their rates before the stigma event and said their rates during the stigma event have been higher than they were before the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opposite happened to me; took me about 63 stigmas to get 3 stigmas to +9 (although a few of my stigmas were downgraded in the process), whereas with 12 tempering solutions, I actually ended up downgrading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also heard I got super lucky with temperings from others so I guess at the end of the day you will have luck with one thing but rng will bite ya on the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunix-DN Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I've managed to +7 all of my accs using less than 20 temperings and starting at +5. 7 stigmas at +9. Gonna try another one before the event ends. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you go higher then +9 or is +9 the furthest you need for the prize? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all 6 of your stigmas you use are +9 it unlocks an extra stigma slot so you can now use a 7th stigma that has to be a green stigma. So +10 is highest can go but no point since getting to +9 is hard enough and gives people what they want which is the extra stigma slot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was used a lot of them to upgrade them a little cause I wanted to have another blue stigma there. To be honest I do not care so much about the green ones and usually have the same 3 no matter if I am going DPS or Support (I can imagine some clerics will say something about this ) Oh my.... all this for another green one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryos-DN Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Yes, the additional stigma slot from the set effect is a normal slot, not a greater or major one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinks that is why they're removing Binding Word and Soul Crush from chanter's skill set on 6.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaNooblaitK-KT Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Dang. Nuts yo. I had so many of my stigmas enchanted before I left. Had even so many just gathered up waiting for this day to come but I ended up just giving all of them away to a random person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
