if it says 25% you cant assume 1 out of 4 will succeed. instead imagine rolling a four sided dice each time and having to have it land on number 1. you could roll it 20 times and never land on number 1.

anyways i had really bad luck with x2 melding, yesterday i double melded 3/6 pieces though which is my biggest success. i got a lvl 3 ad 4 on helm 3 and 2 on cobalt arms and 3 and 3 on cobalt legs. It seems like i have better success when the materia are not the same but thats prob just luck.


tip:always meld the lower stat/grade materia first
