Star Force 100% success rate?

This weekend we get Hot Weekend Benefits. One of the perks includes "receive a 100% success rate when Star Force enhancing equips with 5/10/12 stars". I find this quite misleading as I tried star forcing my 5 star tyrant and failed. I ended up spending a lot of mesos trying to fix my tyrant. What's your thoughts?

    Lol, I had a feeling that something like this was gonna happen. I wish Nexon had been more specific, since it looks like 12 to 13; for example, should be 100%.

    I'm pretty sure it'll be 4 to 5; 9 to 10, and 11 to 12 that are 100%.

    I actually happened to failed at 5 and 4 stars. Maybe they meant 100% chance of star bonus?

    It is 100% to go 5->6, 10->11, and 12->13.
    The star force dialog box even shows the success chance as 100.

    However, it does not work on Tyrants. They should have clarified that in the update notes and event notice.

    Not surprising. Makes me glad I didn't attempt it yet.

    I'm highly convinced they somehow screwed up Star Force with this because I've actually failed getting 1 Star Force and 2 Star Force MULTIPLE TIMES this morning.

    Think of it this way: you won't be disappointed by any of this stuff when you expect it from Nexon.

    I don't understand the way this event works. They claim that the event works on both Saturday and Sunday, while Cassandra says only Saturday. Starforce bonus: I didn't experience it at all. None from 1 star to 10. IA reset: It worked only on Saturday.
