    I must admit that it is fairly rough. I burned likely 600m on getting my helmet to TRI... would have almost been easier to double the cost and buy TET from the market.

    +1 made multiple 25-35fs going from pri-duo when on my first or second day on the server i 1 tapped my dande to tet on a 39fs with not really much trouble getting it to tri although i've heard the enhance rates havn't been changed it seems alot like they have which makes me start to wonder if these guys are trying to make a quick dollar incase teh servers get shut down as their is alot more activity in the game since people frome NA(FML Snake ManUp etc etc and EU have came over) right now my thought process is the servers are getting more crowded which is going to cost more to keep them up and running so you put a T9 mount on the market to cover the costs which is all well and good the mount is worth the money but it also seems you have changed the enhance rates so people buy more artisan memores which if that is true you're just as bad a cuckao i really hope that isant what's going on with the server but if it is then GG

    Too lazy to post my entire experience, but I when I say I'm not exaggerating, I'm really not. I spent 1bill silver worth of enhancement items trying to get a single piece of gear to TRI. I would get bhegs, muskan, zaka, and nouver all to duo (mind you I would start at 10-12 stacks for duo and it wouldn't pop duo until around 30+ stacks) then immediately roulette them for TRI and end up with several 40+ stacks.

    I did about 6 roulettes total with no TRI. Then I tried a few times to individually get tri on nouver, hitting it multiple times. All in all, 1 bill silver used and I didn't even get a single piece of gear to TRI. Couldn't even attempt tet. meanwhile one of my guild members gets about 4-5 pen attempts with 1bill.

    Seriously garbage rates. I had more success on retail, and this is coming from one of the first few dozen people on the retail to hit tet on multiple pieces of gear. I hit tet on 115 fs on retail, and I feel like that was easier than this version.

    What I find amazing is going from +0 > +15 with 18 blackstones.... Yes then you get to the dreadful +15 > DUO which can consume upwards of 50+ shards and multiple 30-40 stack valks/alts.

    Getting DUO on retail has been a nightmare for a lot of people as well recently, hell thats partially why i stopped playing there when I found out GameZ had BDO but seeing this post really worries me.

    18 is incredibly lucky, on going from 10 to 11. I started with a plus 10 failstacks and finally got a plus at around 23 fail stacks. I have the premium blessing as well so i have an extra what 20 or 30% it says. And this was during or right before the +20% enhancement weekend don't remember for sure. But then again my luck has been horrid on this server for the most part. So i don't assume it's gonna get better.

    i've completely given up on normal enhance and switched to force enhancing as on average imma save like 4 or 5 stones and like 7 meme fragments. Force enhancing should always be worse or close to always worse. But sadly it isn't, it's the only way realistically you are gonna enhance without wasting incredible amounts of resources. I for sure had better luck on retail, im just curious how bad my luck would be without the +30% enhancement rates. I may of went to 30 failstacks on that +10 weapon. SMH

    I've been finding the same. I'm having about the same luck as I did on official, but I have less blackstones. I'm feeling non of the boosts to enchantment, which was the main reason I left official. Progression tied to something so rng is idiotic. I realize that they cannot get rid of this as it is tied into the game, but they could do more mitigate the rng.

    It's one of the main issues Jade Dynasty had, and what killed it in a few short years... your ability to progress was based on luck.

    Every update seems to favor people who have been playing since the start and hurt new players in many ways ( I am not even talking about people who duped items and took advantage of the cron stone bug who are still playing). IMO it would be a good idea to start a new server, because many people are driven away by all the nerfs which don't affect many PENs. I really enjoy the progress that was made for a private server, especially the increased rates... but you can't just nerf things months after the server was started and create an even larger gap. As my farewell and a note to admins, check out the skeletons and you will notice people teleporting between mobs to farm witches earrings, the amount of speed hackers is not even worth reporting. It would require a full time GM position on its own to ban them.

    The botting and speed hacking IS becomming an issue, with the influx of people... but besides the point of this thread.

    Same here, was a player on retail since day one... Now I'm just to have some fun.. I can't spend all my day to have a competitive gear for pvp. So this was my day today : awakening blue weapon Pri to duo - 15 stack Valk.. 24 stack Valk .. 32 stack Valk... 41 stack Valk.... Weapon is still pri. Was really better on retail!incredible hard to enhance here! I think I'll left soon... A private server must be funny and much easy .

    I don't wanna say server is not good... All in this server for me is amazing! Exp rate.. Life skills... Drop rate.. I think only the enhance system really have some problems!

    Any response? It would be very nice to know more changes with rates etc to be at least prepared and be aware that we need more failstacks...

    Since this is a private server, why aren't the enhancement rates just published? What's the point of keeping everything secret?

    As a new player, I don't want to spend weeks playing to catch up to people that have TET/PEN from when the rates were just easier. I might as well look for a different server where people are at TRI or lower.
