Reclaim works great. All the RNG complaining is due to each individual's small sample size. If you manually tracked every action you took in game where you knew what the odds were, you'd find the RNG is spot on over long periods of time.

I've personally tracked (since I used to be an RNG whiner) my meld chances over what is now 1000s of meld attempts as well as harvesting odds for the supra/lucis/etc tools. I'm happy with the RNG. It works. It can be streaky when looking at short periods of time.
