    Pretty difficult, balance is a negative stat on them so there aren't increased odds.

    On Erg Core Brooch???????. idk which server you're on but on east you can buy one for less than 100mil. It seems to be pretty easy for some folks. Some people just have all the luck.

    Going from Dulla ring which also has natively 1 BAL on it the chances for hitting BAL infusion should be:
    Positive value: ~3,4043%
    Negative value: ~4,6809%.

    Do keep in mind those are rough estimations since the mentioned brooch has 6 stats whereas Dulla ring has only 5. This slightly reduces the chances for hitting BAL, but the deviation shouldn't really be noticeable.

    Erg Core doesn't have +1 bal, it has -1 bal. It's like trying to roll a balance infusion on a Fomorian Spellbook. It's not easy.

    Given the item has BAL as base stat, the chance to obtain it is significantly higher. Regardless, Element Stones seem to have worse chanses than the better grade counterpart.

    - stat doesn't count as having the stat. That's what Shippuu told me anyways.

    What is the point of having - stats on items? They serve no real purpose ._.

    To balance out some pretty nice ES that only worked on those items, till the devs stopped caring and took them out.

    this might sound irrelevant but.. why would you need an Erg Core Brooch.. for a moment I thought this was a thread from 2013

    I use Erg Core Brooch for the Bal (great with Explorer's ES) and the DEF. I have 160 crit on Hurk (crit infuse and max stat Dulla GS) and getting more crit seems kinda pointless. Also, 4 bal short of capping :p

    no matter whichever build you are talking about there is 0 possibility that erg brooch could outbuild white/blue cat brooch tho

    +12 Chaotic Judgment Dullahan GS
    Regina Chest/Regina Greaves
    Terminus Helm/Gloves/Boots

    90 Bal
    62 ATS
    32K ATT
    15K DEF
    160 Crit

    Yeah, I know, the ATS is nothing impressive, but it gets the job done.
