From these results you can clearly see that it is not a 50/50 percent chance. But notice that there are a few rows where we have several success and also a few rows with several failures. If we continued this for 1000 enhancing most likely the failure and success totals would be much closer together.
As another example we can look at only the last three rows. We see that it is a ratio of 2 successes to 5 failures. If the last three rows is when you started enhancing you might just get discouraged with Vulcanus by thinking that the you will get more failures then successes! But fear not, you are never enhancing alone.
If you enhance a lot, chances are you have noticed that most of the time you aren’t the only person enhancing. If you keep your “system” chat checked on you can see all the other people miserably failing with their gear. Although you might feel some sympathy for these players you quickly dismiss it knowing that their failures brings you that much closer to your +10 phoenix sword. Well maybe not quite but still they do play a big roll in your chance.
We all use the same Vulcanus and therefore every player’s successes and failures contribute to the overall 50/50 pool. This means that if you see 12 failures in a row by 6 different players then you can sort of assume that there should be some successes coming up. This is of course not guaranteed but using statistics and the 50/50 rate you could draw that conclusion. The other side is also true that if you see a string of successes, you might be tempted to throw in your item thinking “oh everyone is succeeding I guess I will too!” That quickly backfires as you throw your item in and fail. You get pissed, throw in another item and fail again, then another item and another and keep failing. After 6 failures and depleting your items you see other players succeed 5 more times. At this point you throw every curse word you know in every possible language, plus a few made up ones, and vow you will never use Vulcanus again, at least not for the next 15 minutes. Yeah you all know what I am talking about, don’t act like its never happened to you before.
Basically the best way to attempt to increase your chances in succeeding is to wait for a string of failures and then enhance your item. Of course in order to do that you need other players to fail and should always say thank you.
Obviously, the more players enhancing at the time the better, so that you get more choices of when to enhance. Again, please realize that this is not a sure way of getting your success but it does give you a better chance, or at the very least the comfort that you tried your best. Also, remember that it takes around 7 seconds to complete the enhancing process and during that time you may see a string of successes from other players appear at which point it might be wise to cancel your own enhance. This again can be done by closing the enhance window using the “x” in the upper right hand corner.
I would like to make a side note here to mention a technique some people use that I would like to call “spirit sacrifice”. This is where players use spirit gear for sacrifice (fail at enhancing) in order to give them an artificial string of failures to have a better chance of increasing their main item. If we refer to the example above where you are ALONE at Vulcanus this would probably not be a bad idea since YOU are taking ALL of the failures and successes but if there is other players enhancing with you at the time then this is a stupid idea. Think about it, why would you attempt to create an artificial string of failures if there are other players enhancing around you? Their successes and failures would be all mixed in with yours making your attempts futile. On the contrary a lot of times people using “spirit sacrifice” inevitably tend to steal the successes from other players failures to + the spirit gear they are trying to sacrifice. I have seen a player enhance a spirit gear to a +8 before failing and then putting in a divine piece of equipment and blowing that one up too!! Its ridiculous, if your going use the spirit sacrifice use it when no one else is enhancing otherwise just watch the failures and successes of other players. Please remember that we all share the same pool for Vulcanos so in theory you could succeed every single time assuming there are other players failing.
Another more thing worth mentioning is the rumor that failing a +5 gives a higher “failure” then a +1 as well as the rumor that failing divine equipment give a higher “failure” then spirit equipment. Personally I have not seen any difference and I don’t believe there is one. If anyone has proof of these phenomena please let me know otherwise I don’t believe it. (By higher “failure” I mean that it counts for more then one failure, i.e. failure a +5 item would be like 5 failures of a +0 item.)
