This needs to change!

Math is power! But in all seriousness, orophin is right. It means there is a 14% chance each time you do it, not you will absolutely succees 14 times for every 100 attempts. Think about it as rolling a 100 sided die each time and you only can succeed if your roll is 87 or above.

Ok for the last time, yes we understand how the percentages work. That's not what I'm getting at. There needs to be a fundamental change system here, the game shouldn't be telling players "if you want to socket that one materia, you better come with 15 because 14 are likely going to fail" Like I said, Tera had a system where with each failure the success rate increased by a small amount, and when you succeed it reset to the default rate. It worked well and wasn't game breaking, it gave players incentive to keep trying rather than just give up.
