Help with refinements

TC is currently down, so i cant perform proper testing on this:

im trying to refine a 5 studded peices suit taking the resists down to 65/65/65/65/65 and DCI up to 70.

but when i tried refining "Deflecting" "of Invulnerabily", i get 4 mods, and 15% chance to get the 5th mod :(

so the 5dci is not guarantied??? and it could go wrong getting -4resists +4dci???

thx

Yes, 4 DCI guaranteed, the last one is only a chance to get it.

:( sad, thanks,

So nothing can increase that 15% chance for the 5th mod?
Try sacrificing a 20 faced dice to the RNG god to try to gain his favour.
Keep in mind that he does hate players with a passion, though.

Lol, last question, what happens if i pick 4 resists out of 5?
The easiest way to get to 65 resists & 70 dci cap via refinements is to use a 6pc set of refine-able armor.

refine all 6 pieces and choose the order in which you lower resistances so don't end up with -5 in everything and -0 in one resistance (because the last resistance chosen is the one that has a chance to fail)

1) -1/-1/-1/-1/-0 4/5 (69/69/69/69/70)
2) -0/-1/-1/-1/-1 4/5 (69/68/68/68/69)
3) -1/-0/-1/-1/-1 4/5 (68/68/67/67/68)
4) -1/-1/-0/-1/-1 4/5 (67/67/67/66/67)
5) -1/-1/-1/-0/-1 4/5 (66/66/66/66/66)
6) -1-1-1-1-1-1 5/5 (65/65/65/65/65) -only one (15% bonus refinement)

you can accomplish this by using invulnerability refinement on a single armor piece, then fortification refinements on all others (1-5).

This will not work with gargoyle characters because they only have 5 refine-able armor slots. so if you want a 70 dci cap on a gargoyle, you need to get the 15% proc on each piece...

The invul level gives you 4 mods and a 15% chance at the fifth. I've tried I think 18 invul and haven't got a bonus 5th mod yet. I posted a suggestion about the forged metal tool could be used to get the bonus mod. Maybe next publish. Fingers crossed.

Same here i just failed to get the 5th mod on 8 parts in a row, 15% is such a low rate, but im not going to cry about it :p im still happy with my 65dci.

Btw thx @Finley Grant & @JFSF for the offer ^^

Are you sure that the fortification will do the Job? I thought they are 3 guranteed Bonus 4
If you refine 6 pieces like how I described you could use 5 fortifications with the 30% 4th bonus proc on them so that it increases/lowers resistance, and 1 invulnerability with the 15% +1 bonus proc.

you could also use 6 invulnerability refinements and hope they all fail except one for the bonus... which shouldn't be too hard.
