There is the pity honing system (artisan's energy), just that at higher ilvl it takes an eternity and a fortune to reach it. The difference between those lucky and those unlucky gets huge fast since the lucky ones gain access to better ways to grind mats and gold while being able to sell any extras to the unlucky ones (or late starters) for gold and all that adds up. Or you could whale away to counteract your bad luck, but unless you have just too much money to know what to spend it on I would recommend against it (hell, if you do have too much money spend it on charity or invest in your local businesses instead)

Stop pushing your honing agressively and start using more books and stones.

I literally hone more than 8 chracters out of 23 to 1580 without any issues because I do not go at it agressively random rage hones

-Yeah using the +5% or +10% honing books from event is a huge boost.

I used all books and this crystals for boosting honing. Still 6 items reach 100% artisan energy. Im not fresh player i know how it works, rng just ♥♥♥♥ nie. I dont have oreha and any books now. I will get more books from event but i need to buy or Stronghold Craft orehas.... 154 fails on start jump to 1503. BIG UNLUCK and stop defending this sick rng korean system.

I know its easier said that done but try to take the emotion out of honing, every time you hope you get it and you dont you just get yourself down, comparing yourself to others honing luck is not healthy either, you may get to 1540 slightly later than them but you will get there, then when you start to push Akkan, luck may be in your favour and youll beat them too it :D

the good thing about the LA system is, you are guaranteed to get it and get there, unlike others where you may need to wait for a specific drop them complete with others for it or gear can break and you gotta start again, LA you will always get there with the pity system. and you are only competing with yourself.

some will claim its built like this to make you swipe but thats not the case. its a game of slow progression

below is the honing calculator if you havent seen it, can help you plan roughly how much resources you will need to get from A to B, its usually on point to + or -10-20% depending on luck good or bad

Well true. Im just frustrated 154 fails from 1450-1503 is just too much. And as fresh start i cant Craft orehas yet and dont have gold to buy. Sadge. Im not mad anymore too. But it shoudnt be possible to have 100% less luck than others on same stage. 82 fails vs 154 its crushing difference

Sorry but you are trolling if i fail with 15% chance 20 times in row somethink is broken. Math is math. You cant have no luck all the time.

No u , That's the whole point of the game in case you missed it , RNG% chance by base being already low without even adding in consideration these are "Jump start" servers, its to drain you of materials to incentivize you to press F4 to access the ingame shop and buy their materials pack , ofc its not needed, just wait another week :)

xD just ask you math teacher what he/she think about failing 20 times in row when u have 15% chance for succed, no point to talk more
