There also used to be the boost from +12 to +18 event on the previous sales:
Will this be coming back?

The rates are bad! they are worse then Jin rates before merge and much worse then Ran rates before merge. Like Syndiicate aka wtb bbc said he wasted alot rps and all gear ended up at +0 like for me! i am not even trying to reinforce anything lately...just waiting u to fix those rates common IRENE ! before merge ppl used to make +18 rings with some luck and now how many +18 rings u saw on your logs? another thing u sell upgraded rings again so to make it fair why not make event like we used to have if u make ring +12 u get it boosted to +18??
Don't be like that we all know it most likely wont happen but we can at least tell them to bring Ran success rates back I have a very large list of suggestions I'm gonna submit soon. I still like this game even tho its 100% P2W. Yes rates ARE bad, i don't remember seeing +18s for sometime on sale at EM and that tells a lot about rates.
Buy the rings if you want and leave them in your bank.. Buy LOTS of armor reinforce IV stones and deluxe abradants if you want their 100% safety feature when they go on sale (don't buy them for the claimed success rate improvement - they really don't have any) and leave them in your IM inventory. When they finally do a reinforce event, get your guild master to pop the reinforce buffs, grab your rings, armor reinforce IV stones and abradants and go for it!
I believe thre is a different between enhancement abradants and reinforcement abradants.
Grade "A" equipment reinforcement abradants (the best you can get on IM besides deluxe) only preserve your rings 80% of the time. You can still lose them 20% of the time. the deluxe reinforcement abradants are the only ones guaranteed to be 100% preserve on fail.
Not sure you can use enhancement abradants in the same place as reinforcement abradants. If you can, it would make the Grade "A" equipment reinforcement abradants costing the same pretty pointless.
Can I buy ring first then reinforce up to +12 and is it I will get ring +18 later?
