Skill Over Enchanting sucess rates

General Discussion Started Last reply 21 posts
Was posting to ask the opinion of other players who have attempted to over enchant skills. I have attempted 3 diff skills now highest being +9. I have failed howvere multiple times. The majority of the failures luckily were +2-+4. Now the sucess rate says 90% but if that was true then why do they fail so much to me seems more like 40% sucess rate -.- anyone else have any experience on this?
First of all what lvl are you? The succes rate of each enchant increases the higher lvl you are. For example at lvl 78 the succesrate for the first attempt is like 97% and each enchant lowers this by like 2%. At lvl 76 the succes rate was 87% for the first attempt if I were not mistaken.

Where did you pull that out of?

its true
the higher lvl you are the higher your enchant success

and BTW i failed a +1 golem 3 times in a row
at a 90% success rate i dont even want to know what the odds are of getting to even +3
O.o when you enchant a skill it has the % on there. just like 60% recipes doesnt mean you will get 6/10 successful crafts

luck ftw :mad:

yup
but as you can imagine failing 3 90% attempts in a row when it cost 2.5% and a 7 million adena book kinda hurts

hurts even worse when you realize a +1 golem has exactly the same stats as it would normally have if they didnt implement the enchanting thing (if you just got normal skills at 76)
At 77 I tried to take my stun shot from +2 - +3 and it said it was an 88% chance of success. Guess what? It dident work of course.

When I did the skill o/e for stun shot(chance) on the PTS for C4.

I got it to +6 it went from like 97, 94, 92, 86, 82, 77, 40%.

Yea I was bored and made that stuff up...

Maybe its first hand experience of getting to 78?
You people seemt to think that anything that is close to 100% should work.

Like someone else said, 60% crafts do not mean you will always make 6/10.

flip a coin 9 times in the air, it lands on tails each time. The odds of it landing on heads the next flip is still the same as always, 50%. Fail 90% 3 times, this does not mean the next time it will work, there is still the 20% chance to fail.

Sure it sucks, but that is what chances are all about.

Failing something that is 90%, well you'd think its almost 100% because it's **** close, landing in that 10% of failure is terrible. If they made recipes that were only 10% success rate, you would almost never craft one, most people wouldent think about trying. So when you land in that 10% of failure that shouldent even be thought about its like hey now , and then to repeat that 2 or 3 times in a row is just plain wrong lol. It inspires the thought past luck and that something fishy is up.
hmm.. you could fail something 1000+ times and still have it be a 90% success rate... what are the odds though =P
(1/10)^1000+ :D
I broke my +7 CoL :( :( :(

Lol mabye its called your makeing it up, just cause you "seem" to be more successful doesn't mean its true.

I also heard your luckier in the church. Oh oh oh and your lucky if you sit under a certain tree. OH and if you do it when the game clock is about to change its even LUCKIER!!!!

My point is all of it is just speculation and what you think. There is no 100% formula we have for enchanting. All we know is the % chance is lowered the higher ya go. THATS IT.

Unless NCsoft puts on their website otherwise. Anything else is BS.

Dude the skill will show its succesrate when you try it. At lvl 76 the first lvl is 87% and it goes up to 97% at lvl 78. No but or if it goes up and you can check it up. When C5 comes and you lvl your toon to lvl 80 the first two lvl will probably have a succes rate of 100%. Im just telling the numbers you see ingame and not something i made up trying to enchant my skills.
ask anyone who is lvl 76 what their % of enchanting skill are. Then ask anyone that is 77, then ask someone that is lvl 78. They will all be different. The game tells them what their chance is. No one is making up anything besides you.
not all skills are the same
like i said a +1 golem was 90% success rate at 76 while other skills at 87%

still i think me failing 3 in a row is more than just luck
Dumb and Dumber on % chance

LLOYD:
--Come on, give it to me straight. I
drove a long way to see you, the least
you can do is level with me. What
are my chances?

MARY:
Not good.

LLOYD:
You mean not good, like one out of a
hundred?

MARY:
I'd say more like one out of a
million.

LLOYD:
(Excited) So you're telling me there's a chance?

Hehe good one
I enchanted my Stun shot to +6 at level 77.

IIRC
+4 was 82%
+5 was 80%
+6 was 78%
+7 is now 40% at 77
