This is embarrassing but I have failed more attempts than I'd like to admit on enchanting my Middle Headgear Costume. Like, around 10 times now even though all resources I can find note a 50% failure rate but that seems too low for the amount of failures I have seen.

 

Are there different maths for specific costumes or enchant stones I am not aware of? Last time I played I enchanted numerous costumes with cheap ATK Stones first try (including the one in question), but getting a "Sniper Stone (Middle)" on it seems impossible to enchant!

 

Do the RNG gods just hate me or am I missing something?

Ouch RNG is cruel indeed, its like flipping a coin 10 times and get all head 10 times. Good luck next time

The rates seems to be 25%(Success), 75%(Fail) actually.

Don't trust in the in-game rates, those are a dirty lie.

I have played this game for years and experienced refining, enchanting etc. I think there is something wrong with this costume enchantment at the moment.

 

For me, I spent 6 stones and got 1 success. continuously I tried another 5 stones and got 1 success. so Totally 11 stones for 2 success which is not a 50% chance of success as described.

 

I created a ticket and GM confirmed that everything is normal(what is normal?). I asked him to test in user environment, not GM environment a couple of times but he refused. What I asked him to do is not that hard to do, you just reinstall the game, clone my account and test. Your test in GM environment does not prove anything and you are ignoring this bug.

based on my experience:

 

for expensive stones the rate is around 20%

for dirt cheap stone the rate is 80%

 

so MAYBE in their calculation:
 

(80% + 20%) / 2 = 50%

Well, thanks all for making me not feel crazy for these failures. I only needed 2 tries for my Ranger Garment stone, but this one eludes me...

Now THIS feels more correct. I'd like to see the behind-the-scenes math to corroborate, haha.

Stones should be 100%. In my opinion. The rng within rng is just scam.

An update (for the 0 people who care): I finally enchanted the middle headgear on the 15th stone. To be fair, it has improved QoL of doing dailies/leveling but it shouldn't have cost my entire in-game fortune for 1 character, haha. The gear I could have gotten for other characters if I wasn't so stubborn  :ani_swt3:

If you used 15 stones for 1 success, that is a 6% success rate. You should create a ticket and ask GM to investigate this thoroughly. Please also mention my case which I used 11 stones for 2 successes.

Done! I doubt they will do anything but 6% for a single enchant advertised as 50% success rate is silly.

As expected, they told me that everything is working as intended:

 

Greetings,
 

We have escalated your concern to our Specialist Team and have checked the enchant rate. we would like to inform you that there is no error or bug in the enchant rate. 
We understand how you feel regarding the situation.
However, please be informed that the rate to enchant item is fixed and work as intended.

 

We hope this will clarify your concern.
Thank you!

You better ask him to explain how is it possible for 15 tries with only 1 success. Ask GM to test until he gets this success rate( 6.6%).  This variation is too far from a 50% success rate and it is not possible to get. Maybe GM needs to test a billion times to get this result.

 

I believe this is a bug, maybe it happens in some accounts or some conditions. I asked him many times to clone my account and test but he refused. 

 

A bug is an unexpected thing, if GM does not test it seriously, they are not going to find it. Or maybe they want it this way?
