ShixueArmour *MYTHIC*

[UnKnownAngel]

Younger mythic on Shixue armour seems to be messed up.

I am certain the upgrade system thinks it is a level 160 item and not a 150 item.

I upgraded a Younger FlayedDragonBrace which Rama now uses with a recipe for the younger level of 142 and it went unidentified and lucky got good stats.

This armour however, 3 attempts with my recipe for a 150 item it goes 'poof' and no scroll needed, just white as if I may as well have used an essence and design from an IronArmour... Disheartening stuff when I'm throwing my not so hard earnt furloughed money at it.

Had the same issue when I tried to do waggys. The armour still thinks its 10 levels higher.

I believe it is the same item as I bought it off him.. its cursed! Or more likely bugged, I also never got a poof on a younger GabrielBrace like it does with this armour either, I always use roughly the same calculations after years of being taught the harsh lesson of chucking money down the drain.

I think you are misunderstanding. Same as when an item's wear requirement increases through added stats, this reduces the item's wear requirements. It does not affect the items underlying stats. Which is what the upgrade is based on. With the crafting system you are not really upgrading an item, you are regrading it.

Don’t know if it’s just me but found armour n weps harder to upgrade so tend to use des a few lvls higher. For this armour for example I would have thought u need a 163 des to make it nice

God only knows how I made that FlayedDragonBrace on Rama then because I definitely used a recipe for a 142 item.

I used a 165 essence and a 151 design. On a level 150 item, poof! That was the highest combination of the 3 I tried, but all was good for a level 150 item. Scorpian so what you are saying, is a Wisdom item, and a Younger item, albeit what the item says is a higher or lower level requirement. It's still the same upgrade process as the fresh, bog standard version? I call bullshit on that because I remade a VanquishBelt with the recipe for the higher level item. Either this particular armour is wrong, or the rest of the items being crafted are.

Another update on this. FlayedDragonBelt with Wisdom Mythic status. Level 160. (DOESN'T AFFECT UNDERLYING STATS), so lets pretend it's 152.

157 des, 154 ess... by no means were these cheap in terms of the price of GameGold and the current in-game economy.. Poof! What you are preaching on here doesn't add up to what I'm witnessing in-game, you should do some further testing on this because it doesn't seem to work the way in which you are saying.

We were writing together here Jim, it was a Wisdom trait not a Younger trait mate.

Well this blows all my theories out the water lol.

Perhaps they just harder to craft? Like cele and 166 item maybe?

Nah I think the level portrayed on the item is the item you should craft it with. Except this ShixueArmour(M) I have in my storage.

I have made a level 142 *Younger* FlayedDragonBrace with 147 ess 147 des, (normal item level 152), and it went Artefact with over 8% dd and some physical defence also with added DC.

I made VanquishBelt with Wisdom trait with 161+ ess / des for an upgrade, it has got nice stats.
Everything except this ShixueArmour works the way it should lol.
The 160 belt was right to poof on a 157 des 154 ess. That's normal for a level 160 item, but following what Scorpian said it was hard to waste even more valuable essence/design on an item what is actually 152 due to Wisdom Mythic not affecting the underlying stats.

Something is terribly wrong with it, people are paying GameGold for materials in auction and some people pay a lot too, impatience can do that to you. Following the advice on this thread if you are trying to upgrade a Wisdom mythic item, you will waste a ton of money.

I had a flayed dragon ring with wisdom go poof twice with 164 and 166 stuff nice stuff! Then used 161 1/2 star and it added pa and fd lol. I think there’s more randomness to this whole thing than I first expected
