So I haven't tried any 80/90 gear yet since there's none that I need to enhance, but apparently at least up to 60 gear the item only resets to one when failing an attempt at +8. Below that the item only decreases by one level, and +8 onward is where elixirs are needed for the first time now. I'm really surprised that they didn't put this change in the notes in more detail. A very nice improvement to the enhancement system.

Anyone else able to confirm this and up to what level it's true for?

    My friend failed a +8 -> +9 enhancement on champion boots (level 70) and it reset back to 0 o: I don't know about level 80 stuff though.

    Shippuu coming through where the patch notes don't +haha Still can't believe Nexon Global treats its content creators so poorly compared to KR.

    tbh really this sort of thing shouldve been in the game since day 1, and not just for gear up to level 60 at this point. This is the only game ive seen where the enhancement/enchanting is so punishing and insignificant until much higher levels. The whole idea is just based on luck, not just partly or some.

    Even with the change it's pretty annoying. I was trying to blow up a level 60 weap to get the mats from it and I simply couldn't get it to +8 to save my life. Considering that we get free gear up to 80 for characters and that anything below level 90 is close to or actually worthless in the coming content the revamp should have gone a bit further IMO. Still, much better than it was, and I agree that it should have been so from the start.
