    So im gonna sound again as a greedy player who wants to have everything for nothing,but...
    Taking into consideration the ammount of players and the fact that Jewel Of Life is not that easy to acqire i think the success rate is waaaaaaay too low. Im not even sure if its 50% or 25% but my experience is: I collect many JOLs since i win almost every Chaos Castle i go to. I used about 50 on my helm and it just keeps failing and failing. You could say that its my bad luck, but i had a hot streak of 22 JOLs in a row failing, then 18 and it seems to me that its simply near to impossible to get even a +12 option. I like the fact that this server has maximum of +28,because we need to hunt mostly solo,but why having a +28 option if its unreachable? If anyone ever makes an item +28 come to me and i will bow to you in respect and utter jealousy ;)

    Well if the success rate is 50%, then it shouldn't be too big a surprise that odds of reaching even +12 are pretty low. And well with such success rate +28 is something I'd say nearly impossible mellow

    You've a good point there Demona. Perhaps the success rate of JOL should be increased maybe to somewhere around 60 or 70 percent. 50% success would be understandable if max option for items were +16, not +28, like they're in blizz.

    i'll take this into consideration and i'll give you two options

    1. keep current success rate and change maximum to +16
    2. increase success rate and leave +28


    PS: I never add JOL after JOL, one after another :) As i do on jwl of soul ... i keep the jol over the item for 5-10 seconds then i apply it

    Well ofc im for B-increase rate and leave +28(even 75% would be hard since JOLs are rare as hell). As i said: Defense is an important thing on this server since we need to hunt for stuff mostly solo. THX for finally noticing my post and replying after 20 days ;)

    I saw your thread from the first time, but it's all about the bump and Aaape's reply

    Even so ... you still got a really badluck if you really wasted 100 jols, thing which i'm not so sure about since i can see plently of +28 items from advertise event winners

    im honestly not making this up mate....100+ for sure! Ask Avalon-he gave me yesterday about 5 JOLs for making his armor+13 and:fail,fail,fail,fail,fail...then i won CC-another JOL:fail.maybe its my bad luck but i really used 100s of JOLs and so far only 1 item is +16(had also an exc Black Rose armor+10+16+DD+ref+L+3def-JOH but i burned it on +11 ^^).now i stop by +12 but even that seems to be an unreachable mark to me...

    True, he always fail with JOL! And I know for a fact that he had over 100 JoL, so maybe its the summoner items that won't be upped by JoL or smt like that.... (Just asking, I dunno why)

    i love this more instead of getting always 100% success rate :D

    I'll never understand those damn 99999999999x (when max exp is infact 999x) having all success rates 100%, boks, wings, etc in shop and so on. Where's the fun here ... where's that feeling when goblin eats all your items or an important combination succeeds

    Well, with a 50% rate there is a 0,5^4 chance to get an item +12=6,25% chance of getting it
    For +16 its 3,125%
    for +20 its 1,563%
    For +24 its o,781%
    and +28 its 0,039%
    This means in average you need 256 tries to get to +28, each try costs 10JOL, so to get 1 item +28 you need 2560 JOL if you are really unlucky. Ofc this is just statistics.
    But on a server like this, what is the chance you will get 15 000 JOL (make 6 parts +28) during the next 5 years? .....

    So there is a big difference in increasing the success rate to 60% or 70% and not the 100% you are talking about...
