Hey, adventurer~!

Having fun and making the most of life in Erinn?

To make dungeons and other challenges in Erinn a little easier,

I bet you're all working hard to keep your Combat Power up!

There are all sorts of ways to boost your Combat Power,

but the simplest, best-known option has to be enhancing your gear!

But here's the thing about gear enhancement…

It can fail, so you'll need luck on your side to hit those high enhancement levels!

That's why adventurers have come up with some weird but fun

little superstitions that supposedly give your luck a boost!

Let me share a few of them with you today!

A blacksmith who's suspiciously good at landing enhancements?

Our guild's favorite blacksmith lately? 아르미스!

You'll find this blacksmith in Colhen, and apparently loads of players have landed successful enhancements here!

아르미스 got my weapon to +17 too,

and I still remember jumping up and down with excitement😎👍

I heard a guildmate bragging about hitting +18 here too… pretty sure it was +18?

Let's all head over to 아르미스 and give it a shot~

Next up on the popular NPC list is Goro!

He's not a blacksmith or weapon merchant with a proper shop in town,

he's Goro, a Fomor who's friendly toward you, the adventurer~

You'll find him in the southeast corner of Dunbarton!

If you've had no luck with enhancements in any town…

Why not give Goro a chance, just for the heck of it?

On the flip side, the worst blacksmith for failed enhancements has to be…

Believe it or not, Idern in Bangor!

I thought I was the only one who kept failing here,

but after a chat with my guildmates, it turns out we'd all had the same experience💦

Before I switched to 아르미스, I went to Idern for every gear enhancement,

but he couldn't land a single success on my weapons or armor, so I never went back!

He's good at transcendence engraving,

but gear enhancement? Really doesn't seem to be his thing😭

How about you?

Which blacksmith seems to give you the best shot at a successful enhancement?

Share your thoughts in the comments!

Please, oh please! Goddess of luck, come bless us🙏

Next up, some rumors around Erinn about boosting your enhancement luck~

There's a fountain with a statue of a girl near Dunbarton Square.

Did you know an interaction button pops up when you get close?

Interact with it to toss in a coin,

and there's a chance a little firework will pop above your character's head!

Feeling like trying an enhancement today?

Why not run over to the fountain, toss in a coin, and see how your luck's looking?

If fireworks pop above your head after just a few tosses,

or even on your very first try, today might just be the day you land that enhancement!

If you've been tossing in coins like crazy

and still nothing's popping above your head…

Maybe save that enhancement for another day😅

Got something besides enhancement where you need to beat the odds?

Try tossing a coin into the fountain~

Word is, if you visit the church, bow, and pray really hard before trying an enhancement,

you'll have a better shot at landing it!

The only one I can trust is myself!

If you keep failing no matter which blacksmith you visit,

and your pity points end up maxed out…

Gather some firewood, light a fire, and try enhancing your gear yourself!

A guildmate told me they did it themselves and landed a high-level enhancement…!

A few spots to try: the campfire on your guild ship,

the campfire spots scattered around hunting grounds,

and the snowman hill in Sidhe Sneachta, for starters~

Nothing to lose, so why not give it a shot?

Let's land those enhancements and rack up some serious Combat Power💪

So, what do you think?

We've all heard these enhancement rumors at least once!

Some of you might've actually had luck with them, while others are probably thinking, “Nah, just superstition after all~”

If you know any other ways to boost your enhancement success rate, be sure to share!

Let's all get stronger together~

Let's come back even stronger the next time we meet!

Bye~🖐🖐🖐
