    You can overtrain in many things. Overtraining leads to exhaustion and overanalyzing, which in the end could be more detrimental in the long run. I think it only effects you if you don't stand up every now and then though. Ie: eat food every .5 hours and you should be fine.

    Crafting seems like it's... not the profession for you.

    no kidding

    those of us who have gotten tons of 50 crafts already have been through all this

    we didnt rage, we endured, and we kept going

    everyone will have their bad days, the odds can not always be in your favor

    failure IS an option

    where you may succeed 50 times in a row on a hard synth, it is possible to do the exact opposite and fail a bunch of times in a row on an easy one


    those are just the odds, and like it or not, the odds of doing this are part of crafting

    Look at the moon phase as well. Half moon I fail synthesis like I was a level 1 synthesizing and item level 30 or higher.

    moon phase has no effect on crafting, this has been confirmed in the past by developers around launch and nothing has been changed to it "yet"

    I can't prove it, but it's extremely odd that every time I see the moon phase not half moon I hardly fail. Then as soon as the half moon shows up, I fail so bad it's pathetic.

    Would you have a link to the page where developers said it doesn't affect crafts?

    it was said long before we had forums even, and since nothing has been said since, its easy to assume that it holds the same as it has since launch, that moon phases/weather etc etc do not affect crafting at all "yet"
    there was mention of it being a possibility in the distant future but that was the end of what was said

    also, based on my own testing back then, and even today, ive never seen any difference in crafting based on any factor other then random luck and my level vs the recipe level(since theyve added 51+ recipes i can once again do recipes higher then me since im all 50, and this still holds true even with them)

    One thing to note though, some recipes, especialy some older ones that are now dated were akwardly harder then their level made them seem, anyone remember trying to do canvas cloth or cotton yarn back in the day? how it would fail easily with guild support(which was required for it) even when you were 10 levels above it? regardless of what day it was, what moon it was, or anything?

    If you believe it works, it works, regardless of all evidence to the contrary.

    That sucks. I use fulfillment rapid twice or until i get 60 or so progress. Then I i careful til done or until i have 88ish progress or are about 20 something durability left then I preserve and use standard and I get decent quality and low failure rates. Even using that system there are still times where fails happen. It is frustrating but like others say one must endure or take a break.
