I really lost the hope on a possible rework of the enhancement system. There have been so many threads about it and Imc hasn’t said a word. My theory is koreans players simply dont care so IMC thinks the system is fine.
Yeah, they aren’t going to change it at this point. What they’ve done in the past and with this rebuild is slowly make it less impactful. Which is good.
After rebuild, the difference between +11 T10 and +16 T10 is about 8% increase for 2h Velc items. That’s not much.
For me, anything after the rebuild, I think +11 is fine.

It’s 8% or less for all weapon types, even Maces, which have the worst atk values and thus the best upgrade value in comparison to the base value (as all Velcoffer items have the same upgrade values, no matter the weapon type or one-handed or two-handed weapon).
A T10 Velcoffer mace has exactly 8% less average attack on +11 than +16.
A T10 Velcoffer Cannon has exactly 5.8% less average attack on +11 than +16.
So, the bigger the weapon, the lesser the actual gain per upgrade level.
Imo excessive upgrading is only worth it on one-handed weapons with low basic attack power (compared to other Velcoffer weapons, e.g. Sword & Mace).
Best to keep it low until you can actually invest in another weapon and try to overcome your first one.

Exactly, just reinforces the point more. Unless you really like glowing weapons…the difference isn’t game breaking.

Problem now is getting those golden anvils. I remember finding them constantly while leveling up my characters before and I had a good stack before the solmiki catastrophe. Now the only ones I get are expirable ones which I never need at the time I get them, so +5 0 pot will have to do unfortunately.

An option to toggle on/off would be nice.
I’m not a fan of the effect/color they went with either. Why the color red? Why not white/black, or even yellow? Are my weapons angry at me for consistently risking their existence?
I’d rather a sparkle, aura or some other visual effect than have my weapon constantly flashing red at me. Also, it’d be nice if weapons with high elemental attribute values had an additional or alternative visual effect.

I just hate RNG, I mean, All thats weapon are 3 months farming resources, the money I spend in this I can fully equip a char(well, Primus weapons, berthas gear and add some atributes points)
During rank9, I upgraded something like this all at once: 20 Shields, 6 Staffs, 5 Rods, 6 Rapiers, 4 Maces (everything primus). Guess how many got to +16? A big, round ZERO
The best one got to +12…
I’ve been playing since the release of the game, and so far, the only things that got to +16 were and Emengard Shield, a lvl315 primus spear, and an event Regard Horn Xbow. And I only got those 3 during r9 content, which means they were already outdated…
merry christmas everyone!
Honestly, that was completely your fault, +16 it’s already amazing.
That’s on you dude. Don’t know what you’re trying to prove or show.
Stay strong. We are with you comrade.
i think he isnt the same person as the uploader, he even comment on that video comforting the uploader.
here is the prequel
and the happy ending
Well my 6th rapier gone without pass +10 though. The shiny rng system so stupid.
I just see a man slowly dying inside there. 
at least it is not staged
It was +8 0 potential, But RNG gods decided its fate long ago.
