    OP is right here tho.

    In a craft that succeeds in 2 CSIIs, why should quick synth be a 50/50?

    At a minimum it should simulate pure basic synths with no mends. That's still a 99.63% success on a 4 attempt mat that clears in 2 basics, and quick somehow gimps that to 50%? This only exists to force you to sit there spamming 1 (or whatever CSII is bound to) and re-clicking manual craft. Why? How is this a good system in any way?

    Nobody is saying it should be doable naked. It just needs to use realistic success rates based on your actual stats and not some artificially inflated BS.

    Name a single recipe that this happens for, and what gear you use. My quick syntheses are at least 99.9% success rate for everything level 59 and down.

    While I was leveling, for example, in basic gear for that level, mythrite nuggets did that. I had to manually spam synths to avoid losing half of my mats. The formula really is that broken. I never trusted quick synth for anything that I wasn't severely over-leveled for again after that.

    I don't remember mythrite nuggets taking 1-2 CSII to complete while leveling. Once I was at least a level above them (and cedar lumber, and similar recipes), I quick synthed the crap out of them with engineering manuals, with a success rate well over 90%.

    I believe they are like 210 progress, in 2.X bis gear at level 50 you gained 80 progress per csii, as soon as you dinged 51 your CSII did 140ish.

    while levelling lol, it should fail in that case, you should have made level 50 items and not new items which give a lot of EXP.

    pre-50 I could easily quicksynth the component mats for my current level crafts with no problem. 50-60 everything went to shit and I abandoned quicksynth entirely. There's still no reason you shouldn't be able to quicksynth a stack of whatever you're using at the time, and I'm too nervous to try it on anything at my level now even as a 60. I'm pretty sure if I went to quicksynth chimerical felt, for example, it would still ruin a majority of my manes. Quicksynth is that broken.

    Just made some quick synths, results:
    Aurum Regis Nuggets: 7 HQ, 64 NQ, 0 Fail
    Hardsilver Nuggets: 7 HQ, 83 NQ, 0 Fail
    Hardsilver Ingots: 4 HQ, 88 NQ, 0 Fail

    I'm in 2 star gear, but results are the same as they were when I was doing them in sub-red scrip gear.
