How do you know if earrings potential are glitched?

I see this auction in Broa earring section

Unique, 3 Lines, STR +15%, All +3%

my friend got scammed a while ago apparently and i'm a bit paranoid - how do i know that its fake or not?

thanks

@matiasmiesbello:

Eek... I think you should get your facts straight first.

I'll quote myself from another thread

[quote=FaTaLP3NGU1N]Lemme try explain it a bit better...

Firstly, identify the potential tier of the item.
Level 0-30 is Tier 1
Level 31-70 is Tier 2
Level 71+ is Tier 3

If the item is in the 1st Tier, only 1%, 2% and 3% stats are possible.
Check the potential rarity and the stat on the 1st line
If it is RARE, the first line must be 1%. All the other lines can be 1% or 2% or 3%
If it is EPIC, the first line must be 2%. All the other lines can be 1% or 2% or 3%.
If it is UNIQUE, the first line must be 3%. All the other lines can be 1% or 2% or 3%.

NB: % All Stat works differently. On a 1st tier item, there can only be 1% all stat or 2% all stat. 1% all stat is an epic stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be epic. 2% all stat is a unique stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be unique. On the 2nd or third line, % all stat can be correct if it is 1% or 2%.

If the item is in the 2nd Tier, only 2%, 4% and 6% stats are possible.
Check the potential rarity and the stat on the 1st line
If it is RARE, the first line must be 2%. All the other lines can be 2% or 4% or 6%
If it is EPIC, the first line must be 4%. All the other lines can be 2% or 4% or 6% (BEWARE: 6% STATS ON 1ST LINE OF AN EPIC 2ND TIER ITEM IS FAKE)
If it is UNIQUE, the first line must be 6%. All the other lines can be 2% or 4% or 6%

NB: % All Stat works differently. On a 2nd tier item, there can only be 2% all stat or 4% all stat. 2% all stat is an epic stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be epic. 4% all stat is a unique stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be unique. On the 2nd or third line, % all stat can be correct if it is 2% or 4%.

If the item is in the 3rd Tier, only 3%, 6% and 9% stats are possible.
Check the potential rarity and the stat on the 1st line
If it is RARE, the first line must be 3%. All the other lines can be 3% or 6% or 9%
If it is EPIC, the first line must be 6%. All the other lines can be 3% or 6% or 9%
If it is UNIQUE, the first line must be 9%. All the other lines can be 3% or 6% or 9%

NB: % All Stat works differently. On a 3rd tier item, there can only be 3% all stat or 6% all stat. 3% all stat is an epic stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be epic. 6% all stat is a unique stat so if it appears on the first line, the potential rarity must be unique. On the 2nd or third line, % all stat can be correct if it is 3% or 6%

Examples:

Level 35 Equip
Epic
6% Dex
2% Dex
6% Dex

Firstly, the first line is definitly fake. The 2nd and 3rd lines COULD be real but there is no way to check this except for by equipping the item

Level 71 Equip
Rare
+5 All stat
10% Dex
9% Dex

Okay so the first line is real. +5 all stat exists on 3rd tier items. 5% all stat doesn't.
The 2nd line is a definite fake
But the third line, even when the item is still rare, is actually real.

Level 100 Equip
Epic
+150% HP
+150% HP

As a requirement i think auctions that include potential equipment state specifically each line in a format like X/X/X. Just to avoid confusion like shown in this thread.

[quote=Falkentyne]NOT true.
EXISTING items that were glitched are STILL glitched.
It's just that CUBING items now gives proper potentials. If an item has existing glitched potential, it needs to be recubed.
And that's that.[/quote]

This makes the most sense.. Someone in my guild was saying there % items were not still working right.. They were just adding the number stat still I think they said.

Guys the "Potential Text Glitch" was patched with the pre-legend events. Pot is not glitched anymore, anything you see is real.

[quote=Kyandizu]What do you mean by "if it is fake or not?" If it is listed on basilmarket, there's no way to actually know if it is real or not. You will have to ask to see the item in person, or ask for a screenshot.[/quote]

i was asking about the characteristics of legit and unlegit potentials on earrings

I think someone said if it is 3%, 6%, 9% its real. If it says like 7% or 11% or some other number it's fake since the only %# they can have are 3, 6, or/and 9 i think.

Those stats are telling me that the earrings are 9% Str, 6% Str, 3% All Stat

I have never seen a +15 stat line before.

Probably means +9%/+6%, no need to be all crazy about auction descriptions.

However, I STILL have a pair of 12% Luk (on one line) Unique earrings that do not work.

They fixed the potential stat glitch now I believe, not sure. If you see anything over 9% stat on one line, then its glitched.
