Enchanting Facts and Tips - Orochi - Pluton - 12-02-2011
by Orochi
1.) The higher the enchant the lower the success rate. Higher chance that u fail at >+30, than <+20
2.) I still believe there's a hidden pg%, it might not grant a 100% success rate but at least it does give a higher % at succeeding as compared to enchanting blindly and hoping for random luck.
3.) Purple gear is a lot harder to enchant than red gear.
4.) If u fail and get a -2.. stop enchanting for that pg%. odds are that you'll fail again.
5.) If u really cant get pass +10.. then u might want to try 2nd option instead of purely relying on 1st option. what works for others might not necessarily work for u. for instance.. on one account i got my purple gear to >+30 with ONLY 1st option. on another account i couldn't get pass +20 with 1st option, i kept failing back to +10 or lower. after wasting tons of gems I gave up n just used 2nd option, and finally got >+30. (i strongly believe some accounts are more lucky than others, period)
6.) use a junk item to test the hidden PG%, don't enchant your main item straight away
7.) be patient and have self control. do not spam non-stop especially when you're on a failing streak
Ultimately.. I believe luck > technique for enchanting. All too often even if I get 2x or 3x +3s in a row on a junk item with 1st option when testing luck, i'll then proceed to get -2 on my main item. some people just hit max enchant by spamming 1st or/and 2nd option, because they're lucky enough. some people go from +30 to +20 instead... I went from +20 to +0 when i lost my temper and just clicked 1st option blindly lol.

Are others seriously only enchanting via first option? I always use largest and look for a window, this will work even better post 140 patch and cannot go minus.

Disclaimer: This is just my observation. I do think there is no theory on enchant that is foolproof at this point.
I'm not very experienced, but from what I've seen -
The "hidden PG" for enchant only applies for a certain gear type/color.
For example, you might get +3, +1, +2.. on a purple weapon, but -stat on purple armor or even a red cloak for the same PG timeframe. So, what I do is I'd try on a junk purple weapon first. If I make it, I'd proceed to enchant my main purple weapon. Same gear type; same color!
So, if I get +stats on a purple armor, I'd say in chat "PG is good for purple armor". That might help guide another player. Ofc, he can't blindly take it, but if he is successful on his junk item for the same gear type/color, that shud ring a bell to him
Apart from this, I think everything else is covered by Orochi~ already.
