I have a +3 want of lightning and an unupgraded staff, and according to the wiki, I should end up with a +2 staff, but it says I’ll only get a level 1 staff. Why? I tried this on a different run, and it actually gave me an unupgraded staff, it’s not just the prompt being wrong. I’m playing the latest version of Shattered Pixel Dungeon.

You can find a +1 natural in most runs, use that to upgrade your staff.

Then you get a guarranteed +1 from wandmaker, take that to the troll blacksmith and upgrade it to +2.

Then imbue for a +3 staff and SoU dump to +18.

You need RNG for higher staff. A +3 wand from wandmaker is 5% chance and you can use that with a natural wand of the same type to get a +20 staff. If you find two of the same type you get a +21 staff but that’s pretty rare.

What is “RNG”?

Random number generation

In ShPD, it means the chances of a weapon or item being dropped, things being upgraded, or how the levels are generated
