I'll agree that there's some room for interpretation there, so you're welcome to read it however you like, but I'm pretty sure that list of colors is in order. Mainly due to the word "progressively". If you were to ask an English major or English teacher, they'd probably tell you the same thing.
Either way, I certainly won't be subscribing to your beliefs without some data to back it up. On the other hand, I have no evidence to provide you in favor of my beliefs other than telling you that's just how I'm interpreting that paragraph. /shrug -
08-05-2012, 07:08 AMKiotelol. You can believe whatever you want. My information is directly from the Producer of Final Fantasy XIV. The fact that you wont take that at face value is annoying me enough that I'm actually not playing right now just so I can find his post..Quote:

Kiote must be on drugs for that interpretation.

Then show the source where he said that, 'cause I've never seen it. I'm perfectly willing to be wrong, but I'm not going to go along with just hearsay.

Although the quality increase can be left up to interpretation, the fact of the matter is that it's White > Yellow > Red > Flashing for success rates. Raldo is correct in that statement since it comes from an official post he has supplied.
Anything else you say can't be taken as truth until proven. The burden of proof lies with he who makes the claim. -

Seriously, it states plainly White > Yellow > Red > Rainbow for progressively worse success rates and has been that way since launch. Doing a TON of crafting for hamlet defense turn ins, this is also the order for lowest to greatest quality gains upon success. It's entirely obvious even from eyeballing it. The notion that the riskier colors would not have any kind of payoff is extremely stupid even for this game.
There is literally no other way to interpret this statement other than White > Yellow > Red > Rainbow for best to worst success rates.Quote:
