I'm new to FF14 and sorry if this info is somewhere, but I couldn't find it.

I have crafted 100's of items over 50 levels of different jobs and it seems the same for all. The % chance for 'basic synthesis' says 90% but it is not at all, the average after 100's items says it's more like 70% or less. The % chance for 'basic touch' says 70% but it is 50% or less.

I'm crafting items with 'basic synthesis' with a 90% chance of success and item after item after item it constantly fails way way more than 90%. Over 100's of items it's the same! And 'basic touch' works only half the time, no more.

Am i missing something?? I pray it's not something obvious... Thanks in advance for any help or info, it's driving me crazy! <3
