Question about cubing bonus potential

I really need to cube the bonus potential on my weapon/emblem, but I've never cubed bonus pot before so I have a couple of questions

1: How good are the chances to go up a tier? I'm hoping that at 2400nx a piece they're at least decent. </3

2: Does miracle time double the chances for bonus potential too?

Thanks!

[quote=kiue]From what I have heard, you can go from Rare > Legendary in just a few cubes. A lot easier than Regular potential.

And I dont know about 2nd question.[/quote]

Hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha hahahahahahahhahahahahahah HA! HAAAAAAA!

Good one...
Rare -> Unique easy peasy Legendary write nexon a check cuz if you are not a lucky son of a gun you are not getting that until miracle time/300$ later.

[quote=SorLilly]Then why don't most people cube with bonus potential instead of the usual potential ? Is it because of the price ? But even if it costs a bit more, if it has higher chance of tier up it would still help right ?[/quote]

1) Normal potential has more useful lines (% boss/%att/%pdr/%crit) compared to bonus potential (%att/%crit). While you can get % boss and % pdr on bonus pot, it comes in insignificant amounts.

2. Remember that potential isn't just about tiering up to unique/leg, you still have to cube until you get useful lines. Bonus potential cubes cost more than twice as much as Red cubes, and you're forced to used them even at leg. So you can't do the "Black to tier then Red for stats" thing most people use.

I feel they have around a 5-10% chance of tier up from rare->epic, haven't done unique/leg often enough to have good numbers. I remember the tier up rate during Miracle time being reasonable though, similar to black cubes.

You can get double Miracle with bonus cubes, though when cubing armor you're generally aiming for 10 att or 2-3% stat so it's not like tiering up matters all that much.

in the past i had cubed without miracle time and got to epic
now when i cube at miracle time ive gotten from rare to unique in 1 cube, and ive tired up many from rare to epic in max 11 or 15 cubes.
tier up is better than normal cubes (only tried until unique though)
and yes miracle time does affect it.
