    Quick synthesis success/failure rate adjusted

    Forgive me if this has been asked; I did a quick search and didn't find anything.

    Before 2.1, quick-synthesis seemed to have ~ 1-2% failure rate for me. Now it seems to be approaching 10% (certainly above 5%). This hasn't just been on a couple of efforts either; it's fairly consistent... Does anyone know if the failure rates were actually increased, and if so, if this was intentional?

    I don't bother with QS at all as it was pathetic in it's original state and if they've nerfed it even more it's beyond usable now anyway ...

    Yes, After I found out it could fail, I have never used it since. Success rate should be 100%, since done manual its impossible to fail a synth, once you have steady hands or careful synth, if you just focus on completing it. That said I macro craft a lot.

    I use it on low end stuff like the roof tiles.

    I also added in the grind tax when I gathered. I needed 1x99 straw and 2x99 Potters clay so I gathered 20 and 40 extra of each.

    Last night fleece was super cheap, and woolen yarn was at least 4x material cost. Also, I need a few more levels on Wvr, and I can easily make HQ Wool Cloth from one NQ and one HQ Woolen Yarn. Guess what I did while I was taking my dogs for a walk??? 99 QS yarn... 3 or 4 failures, almost 20k profits.
