Harley-KT Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Is it just me or the odds are even worse than when there is no buff? I didn't fail as much without it. This game is so good at breaking our hearts (and wallets). People tell me to quit. I can see why. The game isn't what it used to be. Fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhhPieceOfCandy-DN Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 they so nerfed it...before power up it was so much easier and now its like unless u have billions its not worth it and when u even have billions unless u are p2w its even worse i have my one acct that pays and i can get stimgas at least +7 and above and when i use my free to pay acct nothing but fail after fail after fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vessttemona-KT Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I have managed to enchant 9 of my stigmas to +9 in the power up events (2 stigmas in the current event) and im a f2p, so i dont think you have to be a p2w to achieve it, you just have had bad luck.

Aliseta-DN Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Yes its 100% true. In previous events was so much easier to enchant stigmas. At this one they keep failing even at +4 +5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesecake-DN Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 It's like it's "nerfed" every iteration of this event... https://forums.aiononline.com/topic/2929-weekly-server-maintenance-september-19-2018/?do=findComment&comment=30633 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to get my stigma to what it was. +7 lol. It keeps failing 4-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiex-DN Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I just enchanted all my stigmas to +9 (DPS and Heal) I guess it's a matter of luck lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GibbsFreeEnergy Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Last power up I tried to enchant 1 stigma to +9 and I got it to +8 five times, but every time it failed to +9. After using more than 80 stigmas of that type from my storage, the broker, friends, and all the bundles I could get ahold of on the server, I bought close to $120 of them from the bcm since that was my only option left to get as many as I thought I needed. I got nothing but my +7 at the end, which I already had at the start. Don't get me wrong I've made eight +9 stigmas, but something in the last three power ups seem very wrong. If you remember the urgency of the two before this one, how it was done as an "emergency" overnight patch by NCSoft to cover up for the terrible "failed" events, it's not hard to believe that they made it much harder to succeed in enchanting, as part of their contingency plan. Anyways, when a couple of them went from +8 all the way down to +1 or failed below +5, I switched to new base stigmas, since I heard the rng is tied to the base stigmas. Even after trying 5-6 different base stigmas, very few of them could get above +7 even after five attempts or more. So the mechanics seem to have completely changed. People need to wake up and realize this really isn't about luck, there's probably a hidden formula to succeed in these enchants that NCSoft and other gaming companies don't reveal to us. It is in their best interests to keep us believing that it is purely lucky based, but even fornite has these type of psuedo-luck mechanics that seems like they are purely luck based, but really they include more than 10 factors in a equation we can't see. If it was simply luck, a lot of us would probably be way better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vantheria-DN Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I have had better luck in this event than in previous power ups. It all comes down to luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
