After using 20 stones (about that) I'm at 3 stars.... 3 stars! When I'm successful, very rarely does the star level increase. And of course when it fails (more that the % says it would) I lose a star. The mechanics are stupid and the % isn't even right. Also, in 20 tries I've only gotten Intelligence once. Strength? About 8 times. That's not coincidence (mage, if you couldn't tell). I would love to see real stats compared to how the stats SHOULD be. Just one more wonky thing to perplex players. If you're successful, you should increase a star, not just.. change stat class.

I agree that this system is stupid. Also even if you use 2k balens for a 100% chance to succeed, the star level can stay the same, the stat will change. That is just nonsense. Not that I am going to being using balens on it, not even touched this system on my main. I will only do this if I get the stones from explore.

All the luck
Well I have to say I must be getting all your luck.
I have engraved and have always had it successful.
First wheel - 30% now
Second Wheel - 35% now
Third Wheel - 25% now
Fourth Wheel - Not opened.
Helps with all posts 800 + 200 crystals a day.
And 1 in 3 days getting a stone from map.
Not used any balens for it either.
Hope you all have better luck in the future.

So far, since October 2nd (1.5 months), I got 4 stones on one toon, & none on the other, for max exploration on both toons, every day.
Would you mind telling us your platform & server number?

I hope they change it, the first stones i got lucky but the last stone gave me +15% orso on charisma but with a negative figure it even drops more.
Not that i really care about that but now i am saving some stones to change it to a more usefull stat and then go back on henna-usage only and smelting-stones. Some players got lucky and reached the point of KH earlyer but those are the happy few, i wouldn't risk it. 10 stones are 150 smeltingstones, that will do more for your stats than the tattoo's.

Smelting ramps up quickly. 24 to 25 is 700 smelting stones. And smelting doesn't seem to have a max. At a certain point it starts to cost 5000 per level. That's 500,000 crystals. Or 333 engraving stones. From DolyGames preview, it seems that those 333 stones would be enough to max, or nearly max out, all 4 engravings, without ever using balens for "100% success".Last edited by R224070026; 11-17-2016, 06:06 AM.S310: Gidd- 20kk BR

A certain site had a video of smelting going into the 80s and costing 5000 smelt stones per level at around 35 onwards. The only reasonable lvl to reach is smelt lvl 10. After that, it slows down real fast.
Tattoo engrave counts towards Knighthood requirements, so that is great for new players. I have had decent luck with it. The first 3 stars are easy and once you have 3 stars on a wheel, you literally cannot go back down to 2 stars. That is a minimum of a 60% total boost with 3 stars on 4 wheels. Not bad at all.Starblaze - S658
