If only other % based aspects so simple with the games fickle RNG system. What's that? You have a success chance of 95% (or 5% fail chance for glass-half-empty pov) to gather? We'll have you fail 5/6 gathering attempts in a row, that should be about even. What's that? You have a success chance of 45% to meld an equip? We'll have you fail around 5 or 6 times, that should be about right. 7% success chance to meld? Pfft, we'll you might as well expect to fail at least 30 or 40 times... the 5% fail chance for gathering that you managed to fail 5/6 times in a row? That's old news!

Obviously this damn crafting/gathering RNG system drives me insane.
