"On top of all that, you can use stimulators to forge things as well. They created Overall Stimulators and hat stimulators and so on now, so there�s a stimulator available if you choose to use one. stimulators DO, however, add a chance of failing to the item, which at default is 10%. The higher your Hands stat is (OMFG HANDS IS USED FOR SOMETHING), the lower the failure rate is, but this doesn�t lower the odds of the item coming out below. Since Hands is calculated from total Dex+Int+Luk, warriors and Infighters (who have mostly STR) are really screwed over by this. archers and gunslingers will have a harder time than Mages and Thieves, who will have their Hands at maximum. Stimulators can also be used in conjunction with graded jewels. Either way, I wouldn�t recommend using a stimulator, because the benefit of having it is outweighed by the odds of it ruining your item."

It means nothing as of this moment but what I hear is that you require the "Hands" for the Items by Alchemy skill that is suppose to be coming out in the next patch.

Begginners cant have this skill. Meaning they would stay beggers for lvl 50+ items for the rest of their lives, hence the name. Beg-Ginner. Im a priest, I am happy I can create items the most better than u all.

Chanor said: "Im a priest, I am happy I can create items the most better than u all." Sorry, what? the most better? And, people will just make items that give dex/int.... wait most people already have int gear, so they can just equip that when they want to make stuff.
