Max of 255 matk?

Hey, I heard something about a max limit of 255 matk from scrolling, is this true?

It's referenced in this (very old) thread:
http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2201940/0/Is_it_true_there_is_a_cap_on_attmatt_on_weapons.html

Basically I have a fafnir weapon with 204 base matk. If I use 20% scrolls (+7 matk each) 10 times (+70), will I end up with a 274 matk staff or a 255 matk staff?

In a related note, can you break this cap via enhancement?

@ClassOf12: Yes this is the one.
And no, its not capped at 30 m.att/att. This might be the case on other gear than weapons tho.

And i am 95% sure the gain from additional options is capped at 30 attack/magic attack and 50 of any stat.

Oh my dear Jesus on a roller coaster.

[quote=Skyenets]I've never heard of that cap. If it's there, it's quite ridiculous to keep releasing weapons with higher base m.atk. Either way, I don't really think there is such a cap, as I've seen KMS weapons with over 500 m.atk recently (additional potential helped a little there).[/quote]

(EDIT: Last part of my comment was disproven, nevermind ^^)

Thanks everyone for the comments

Could anyone verify they hit the 255 cap [b]on a fafnir weapon[/b]? It almost seems too easy to hit cap if your weapon starts in the 200s clean...

@SoulAffinity: For gms only the premium scrolls go up to 9, but it's 7-9 so far. There is no 10 attack/mattack for gms yet so this could only be for global.
@ecyz: I would like to see a staff with that :O, maybe @skyenets has one or a wand I know she showed on on the evan forums but not sure if it was scrolled.
@misoh0rny: we are talking before enhancements. 2 separate questions on the thread.

Obviously no cap because Nexon keeps releasing these scrolls that +9 or 10 att/m.att

I really don't think there is a m.atk cap in that sense
Could have sworn I've seen a fafnir staff with over 255 m.atk pre-EEs

There's no reason for Nexon to implement something like that, seeing as Power Creep is giving us staves/wands with enough base m.atk to easily break 255 from just scrolling.

Yes you can break the cap with enhancements, but I too have heard the max was 255 this is why I slowed down trying to perfect my elestaff with premium scrolls (7-9mattack).

i heard its up to 225 m.att with scrolling, but the limit doesn't affect enhances from ee scrolls
