Enhancing to make 100% elemental damage weapons

OK..I thought I understood this...

After reforging, I have weapon with 30% physical damage, 70% poison damage...I thought it was possible to enhance with coloured ingots, in this case verite, to make a 100% poison damage weapon.

Not only does that not work for me, but enhancing appears not to affect the weapon at all. I am getting a success message saying I have enhanced the weapon with the new material.

Am I missing something or have I misunderstood the process? Has something changed?

Thanks in advance for any answers...

That is supposed to work.

Try it on a plain weapon, and enhance it with shadow, does that work to give it some energy damage?

I just did this the other day and it was fine. Maybe its just a glitch in the client and you need to log out and back and the properties will display correctly?

After logging in out then in, the changes showed up. Confusing..;p

I put me head down and plugged away with copper runics until a pure 100% weapon fell...happily it was poison.;p Now to repeat for fire...but at least that can be enhanced.

Thanks all.

You can only enhance cold and fire weapons to 100% with agapite and bronze ingots. You do not get to 100% for poison or energy when enhancing with ingots.
Actually, you can get to 100% energy two different ways. copper or verite. However, you have to start with 80% or better energy & the rest all in Physical.

Cold is Shadow Iron (20%) or agapite (30%)

Fire is Bronze (40%).

Poison is the only thing you can't to get to 100% enhancing with.

Just remember you can't replace other elements when enhancing, only physical.
