100% enhancement can fail

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHl3DmjA6ys

So they changed reg EE to 100% success first star but they still can fail

Try to avoid using them if you're interested in keeping your item.

Spam them on all the random stuff you can find if you want compensation later on

So it was a text glitch.

Yes to those who had played this game for years to know about EEs but calling those "stupid" or "idiot" is not going to help. Don't you think seeing 100% chance to pass is very tempting to use? I mean why not? Not everyone knows this is a typo. Many people thought EEs have been tweaked and fall for Nexon's stupid typo. Come on, this is after a new enhancement system coming out for crying out loud. I played for 5 years and I even almost used one on one of my equips until one of my guildies freaked out that he boomed his sweet water tattoo thinking the EEs are 100% because IT SAYS it's 100%.

I just e-mailed Nexon about this because I had just blown up my Tyrant Altair Belt because of Nexon's stupid typo and the GM that replied told me that these equip enhancement scrolls do not work on tyrants but rather regular equips. But it doesn't say that on the scroll NOR on the update notes. Nexon compensation likely?
Edit: I had also used the new EE because it had said 100% success and my belt had no stars -.-

@SUREs: Actually AEEs still do exist. Go look under the fm site. Also I posted those information because I was showing him that EEs are not suppose to be 100% rate. I never claimed it was fake. I said it looked weird. I meant it was a typo or that it was a bug or something Nexon Goofed up. If i wanted to call it fake or that he made this up then I would have stated that. I said it was weird because it is weird. Lastly, if you know that EEs are 80% from before you should always take caution just incase. Don't jump to conclusions unless Nexon state themselves that has been changed to 100% rate. Obviously this is a typo on there end and they meant to put it as 80% and not 100% rate. Typos exist in this game as this isn't the first time Nexon goofed up on something.

are you guys blind or something. regular EE has ALWAYS been 80% never 70%, never 90%, never 100%. nexon took out AEE from the evo lab shop. its for sure a glitch. i would never use an ee for tyrant. but seeing as how the person in the video has a whole mess of tyrants, its nothing to him. but he of course will log a ticket to nexon and demand maple points.

[quote=Effectivs]@SUREs: How is my information not reliable? If people can not read or interpret my statements wrong that isn't my problem. My point is correct about how it looked weird because it did looked weird. EEs are not suppose to be 100%. I never said that he was lying or that's fake. I said it looked weird because it didn't look right. For some odd reason he thought I was calling it fake and took offense to it. That's not problem nor does it make my statements incorrect.[/quote]

text[quote=Effectivs]Dude are you dumb? How long you been playing this game for? They're two types of equip scrolls. EEs with 80% rate and AEE with 100% rate. There is no such thing as equip enhancement with 100% rate UNLESS Nexon changed it this patch and I did not know about it.

Please actually know what you're talking about

AEE http://www.basilmarket.com/MapleStory-item-Advanced-Equip-Enhancement-Scroll-5147.html

EE http://www.basilmarket.com/MapleStory-item-Equip-Enhancement-Scroll-5146.html[/quote]text

This is what information you provided. With the new update, these are no longer a part of the current maplestory update. The new regular EEs could have been intended to succeed with the 1st star. It didn't seem like it was switched with the old AEE text because it showed signs of updated EEs (about the 15 star maximum)

I even said UNLESS they changed it during this patch then it doesn't look right. Never said he was lying in the first place. Initially I actually thought Nexon made a goof up like hte person above stated. Since EEs are not known to have 100% rate. No clue where you got the idea I thought it was a lie.[/quote]

@RheeBreezy: Because passing rate for Superior items first star is 50% which costs 55.8m. On top of that, I didn't tell people to take risk with their equips. I said it's nice that he made a video of it to prove that the EE scroll isn't 100% on first star so people don't fall for it.

@Effectivs no one said typo doesn't exist, but wiltung proved that the scroll isn't doing what it said to do. It is like we don't know if occult scrolls count as special scrolls or not unless someone failed it while using a lucky day.

@c5548christine
but with star force, it's 100% for the 1st star... why does it matter? why take the risk?

[quote=c5548christine]@Effectivs how difficult is it to understand this statement

His point is you can't take the scroll's word for it. It fails even though the scroll said it has 100% success rate first star.[/quote]
it's a typo then. Hell there were scrolls with typos before. Pot scrolls that did not say anything about booming but they did boom. Dark scrolls that had a higher % chance but in reality were only 30% chance. I think that was shield for attack or something like that. Typos exist.

So regardless if you see something that looks weird like this for example. You should automatically think that it must be a glitch. Why would you think they changed the EE to work 100% rate? Then what's the point of AEEs? It's common sense that this is just a typo....

[quote=wiltung]But if the text is meant to be true, then it would be a technical glitch. But, we can't assume anything until we get confirmation from Nexon

@c5548christine:
And to add on to that....
The options for 1st star tyrant:
1mil for equip enhancement @ what seems to be 100% rate
30mil for AEE @ 100% rate
50mil for star force @ 50% success rate

I have a feeling more people are gonna fall victim to this simply because it's the most logical route[/quote]

Its a typo on the EEs. It isn't suppose to say 80% because I see right now on that fm site AEE still exist.

Yes, this is what I meant. If i wanted to call the person a liar or that it's fake. Then I would have said it was fake. I said it was WEIRD because it did not look right. Does not necessarily mean it's fake. Again I only logged in a bit so did not know if they changed anything or not.

good thing you told us about it, I would have used my left over ee on first star.

@RheeBreezy people with lots of left over ee would love to use them on free first star, or simply just dump them over their equip for a quick 1 star then star force after.

@StealthClaw: omg can't people read? I posted that image from the freaking video it clearly says 100% yes but EEs do not have 100% rate. UNLESS they freaking changed the damn equip scroll during this patch EE is at 80% rate. Why can't people actually learn to read? How many years have you been playing MS? You do know there such things as AEEs and EEs right? lastly, I wasn't even calling it a lie. All I said it was weird looking because EEs are not suppos to have 100% rate on them...

@c5548christine Damn do ppl not know what a AEE and EE is? You should know by now EE does not have 100% rate. So UNLESS they changed the damn scrolls during this patch it did not look right. I never said it was fake. Where in my first post did I say it looked fake? All I said it looked weird. How does that imply that it's fake? It could mean I thought it was a bug or Nexon goof up. Which was actually my first thought.

They probably goofed and accidentally changed the text of the reg ee scroll. It should be a 80% chance to pass 20% to boom. Like before, nexon didnt state a boom chance on some Adv Pot scrolls and people used them assuming it wouldn't blow up.
