Advance Jewels fail rate???

Is it me or has the fail rate of the advance jewels increased recently. 10 tries to get from +7 to +10..... 138 diamonds for a +4 increase, that's less than a 50% success rate to +10...... so how many more is it gonna take to hit +12, another set of 5,10,15...........

Each plus has a different rate of success. The jewel's status only mitigate the chances of a failed upgrade.

Plusses 1 through 4 are a piece of cake (4 still gives me trouble sometimes) while 5 and 6 are monsters in terms of fail rates. I've spend 35 jewels just atttempting to get from 5-6, it was that bad.

As for advanced jewels, they seem to be a lot more complacent. I managed to get from 7 to 12 without a single fail on multiple occasions.

Overall, here's what you should do to plus a weapon/armor/accessory.

+1 Faith jewel
+2 Faith jewel
+3 Faith jewel
+4 Faith jewel
+5 Perfect Faith jewel
+6 Perfect Faith jewel
+7 Advanced Faith Jewel
+8 Advanced Faith Jewel
+9 Advanced Faith Jewel
+10 Advanced Faith Jewel
+11 Perfect Advanced (they exist) Faith Jewel
+12 Perfect Advanced Faith Jewel

Quoted from "Zombolini;583715"

+11 Perfect Advanced (they exist) Faith Jewel
+12 Perfect Advanced Faith Jewel

ummm, yeah, they exist... for 220 rubies... Or for $26 packages... Nobody in their right minds would have that much rubies or $26 to spend on an empty package that doesn't even give you many items.

+12 jewels have not been nerfed, they have always been like that. Sometimes, the equipment will just refuse to plus. I've plussed from +6 to +12 with only 1 fail several times, and of course also spent 3 stacks of +12 jewels and still can't get to from +11 to +12 (the next day, spent one jewel and instantly ding! +12 lol).

If your equipment refuses to plus, I'd wait for 1 or 2 days, because from what I've seen, if you're having bad luck, it will not plus no matter how much jewels you throw in.

yep, tried again today, and 5 more plussers to get to +11..... And if they had a perfect out there I would buy right now, think I made enough in rubies from puries to t6 accessory and plus to 11 to pay for it easily..... I will wait a few days and then go for +12. Of course it is on the necklace and is needed for crit increase.....
