Why does the synth become more unstable when I use the wait command? It shouldn't make the orb go from yellow to flashing. It's just too luck based. And thats my crafting rant.
flashing isnt more unstable than yellow though, its just that it change compastibilithy type, but stabilithy also becomes higher.

yellow = bold / careful, this is an easier synth, but failing it makers it more unstable
red = anything, it gives great quality results, but it is a big chance for it blowing
white = standard, it fails almost never if youre in the right level range
flashing = rapid, a bit harder synth, success makes the orb more stable

in othrer words, flashing is often better than yellow

makers muse = bsm abilithy, makes standard easier
preserve = alch abiliothy, makes orb white for 2-5 rounds
