Bonus +1 to +12

The bonus is the (+N) after an item’s name. It adds a share of the item’s stats, and it counts toward your Battle Power.

What each bonus adds

• +1 to +8: 5% for each level, so +8 adds 40%.
• +9: 50%.
• +10: 60%.
• +11: 75%.
• +12: 100%.

The share is of the item’s Normal stats, and it comes on top of quality. A Super +12 item has 250% of its Normal attack or defence.

Where

• Renee [Cronus 321,509] raises a bonus up to +9.
• Perez [Cronus 321,501] takes a +9 item on to +10, +11 and +12. Both you and the item must be level 85 or higher.

Yellow Stones

Bonus now	Chance	If it fails
+0 to +6	50%	Drops 1 (+0 stays +0)
+7	40%	Drops to +6
+8	30%	Drops to +7
+9	20%	Stays +9
+10	33%	Drops to +9
+11	20%	Drops to +10

• The stone is used up either way.
• On average, +0 to +9 takes about 138 Yellow Stones, and +9 to +12 about 76 more.
• Once an item reaches +9, it never falls below +9.

Stones that always work

• Super Yellow Stone: from +0 to +8, so it can take an item as far as +9. Joans [Cronus 284,478] gives you one for 30 Yellow Stones.
• Starlit Jewel: from +0 to +3.
• Lunar Jewel: from +0 to +8.
• Divine Jewel: from +0 to +11, all the way to +12.
• A bound jewel only goes into bound gear.

Bonus and Battle Power

The lowest bonus among the six pieces you wear is added to your BP. One +12 weapon with +0 boots adds nothing, so raise your pieces together.

Reach +12 and the whole server hears about it.
