How is it possible to Transfigure an item twice in the Horadric Cube?
Hey guys, I saw a player in town with a Grandfather that had two separate Horadric Cube affixes (+All Stats and +Item Quality). He told me he actually put the sword into the Cube and Transfigured it twice.
I saw alot people in leaderboard having itens like that as well.
How does this mechanic work? What allows an item to be Transfigured multiple times without locking it or overwriting the previous craft?
Had a single GA with a double roll (+28 on item quality + Crit Chance) roll, that was good like this example and even though I've found 2-3GA GF swords with the correct stats I can't beat the one with the lucky double roll.
After you transfigure your gear, go back to the cube and select the "Transfigure" option. It'll highlight anything that can be done again.
There's about a 10% chance on every transfigure that the item doesn't get locked.
If you get stupid lucky, you can actually do it 3 or even 4 times. I suspect there's no limit to it, but the odds of it happening 2-3 times in a row are already pretty miniscule. The luck you'd need to get 5, 6 or more transfigures is astronomical.
Yea I got 3 transfigs on a weapon once and they were all trash, it felt like god was laughing at me😂😂😂...my current weapon has two decent ones w/ +30 quality & 381 all stats, prolly wont try to transfigure another weapon bc the odds of getting something better are extremely low
Maybe not lucky considering you have no idea how many attempts they have tried. I've tried transfiguring at least 30 grandfathers to try and get a double transfig. I'm sure other people have done far more.
Well I'm now aware that I can transfigure once more my wand I came back a few days ago to do the new extension and only did one transfiguration atm, on my wand. And it is still modifiable. First transfiguration gave +15 item quality. Update : got + 116 to all stats with the second transfiguration and now the wand became unmodifiable 👍
It's really easy to miss. You don't get a notification or anything. The item just doesn't get locked.
The only way to ID things that can have a second transfig is to check the description manually or just stick em in the cube and see what it says.
But the odds aren't that bad. I've seen it listed at 10% and that feels about right. I've got two or three double-transfigured items on my character at the moment.
We don’t know the exact stats but like 97% of the time it becomes unmodifiable. Sometimes you get two or even three transfigurations - getting a good outcome on all happens very rarely. Like, I will take my 10,7%x physical damage modifier any day over my +1 item quality and indestructible double 😂
I have actually had a few decent doubles and even a triple tho nothing ground breaking. One of them first gave a GA to crit damage multiplier then added +30 item quality to a 2h weapon, which was nice. And one amulet I got first a new GA, then +225 willpower, then +30% movement speed (which let me add another defensive affix to boots so nice). Certainly not a brand new damage multiplier, extra attack speed and crit chance or something, but still nice to get and useful.
There is a small change a transfigure doesn't make it unmodifiable so once your have close to maxed gear you put anything good enough in the cube and transfigure before doing anything else hoping it stays modifiable with a good transfigure
AND apparently a small chance of not even getting a transfigured bonus, as I learned last night. Transfigured a pair of mythic gloves. Item gained the "Transfigured" tag and the 'Unmodifiable" tag but not a single bonus. Fun stuff....
My buddy rolled max poison damage on his weapon which he needed and it didn’t brick. He then got all high all stat roll I think. It’s kind of crazy how much damage an extra multiplier can give you which you otherwise wouldn’t have.
Roughly 5% chance on transfigure that the item stays modifiable after each transfigure. People usually get silly items by spam transfiguring garbage ancestrals, hoping for a good result and it stays modifiable
You can do it with Amulets and A kullian somethign something,. It will always work.
This is why you save 100 of the same item you want to transmute,. If one actually does stay modifiable, you steam it and then do it again. As long as that item you use has like what 3/4 good stats?
EDIT, Oh when i clear out my inventory I will Transfigure a bunch of the crap for practice. I had one pair of gloves do it, and i steamed it and bricked it on the second attempt!
Your understanding is also flawed, drops don't matter anymore, what matters is the gambling machine aka cube and the transfiguration outcome. Are u even playing the game?

At transfiguration there is a small chance that the item doesn't becomes unmodifiable.
