    Man, I thought I had it bad. I always eventually get all my weapons to +10 (All 7*+ because I hate looking at basic weapons...)

    But people here just up and give up.

    I guess the effort and punishment towards grinding does still make +10 fair while still keeping a max grind... kind of special... Compared to the weapon breaking or getting nerfed permanently or getting random stats.



    edit: @ joozek, that's pretty much what I do till all my grinders are gone >_>

    DON'T THINK, JUST KEEP GOING TILL IT'S TIME TO CUT YOURSELF! My Zanba went straight from 1 to 10 without a fail... But that was the only time that had ever happened. >_>;;

    AYY. All you nillas days is numbered.

    How much meseta did you spend per attempt?

    You're just lucky you didn't get hit with one of those "went from +9 to +6" blows. That shit just hurts.

    I tried grinding my hotdog rifle a while back. Got to +8, then went down to +5, then +4, then +3, and I spent hundreds of thousands of meseta just to finally get back to a mediocre +6 and stopped.

    It's just too much, I can't imagine the pain PSU players went through.

    Well, I've had my fair share of horror too.
    Spoiler!


    What I know is that I won't be trying to get this to +10 till I get my other one to +9

    I found my 11th daylight scar today, whoopee

    Oh but when I checked my inventory I had a bell card wtf hooray

    edit: Hey jooozek, where are you getting those printouts? Is it in the chat window and I just never noticed? I've been tracking my grind failures for the last two weapons, it eases my nerves to at least make progress in determining how much I should expect to spend on average to get success (I have yet to get a +10 derp)

    And +9 to +6. Ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, try +9 to +3 1 lost grind at a time.

    First, you had to get the [B] synth board to have your Partner Machine synth it for you. Then you needed to farm the materials... which drop slightly more often than a Sealed J-Sword. Then you had to start the synth and wait X amount of days for your PM to finish it.

    All that work and now time to grind!

    Get to +9 just fine, then on +10 the grind fails and the item you are grinding is destroyed.

    Same situation with my Gaarando. Got it up to +9, now it's just failure city from there. Not bothering anymore.

    The enhancement systems alone make the game an unpleasant and frustrating experience. This alone should be reason enough to remove it from the game. It's tantamount to punishment and torture.

    Receiving a rare should be a happy thing, but it ends up being miserable when hundreds of thousands to millions of meseta goes down the drain immediately afterward, without any form of positive return.

    It seems to end up being less expensive to simply purchase a +10 with decent affixes than to take chances, or maybe even to buy a maxed-out non-rare. At least you can sell that off when you're done using it...
