    Yep the entire sequence happened to a friend of mine (fail at 96, succeed at 5 right after)
    Haha yeah, it happened to me as well.

    I guess we tend to give bad luck moments more relevance than good luck moments.

    so has no one else noticed the odd number verses the % ? There have been times when I had the HQ % total be 215 / 425 and yet the % is only 15% XD lolzwhut?

    Oh and for the mining thing I've had 3 out of 4 failures on a 98% two different times now

    ya it's infuriating. I'm having computer issues so the last weekish the only thing i've been able to do is log in for a little here and there and do gathering/crafting. Really annoying to fail at super high %.

    Working as intended.. if 50% quality gave 50% HQ rate, then i would make 9/10 items HQ xD

    Quality gains versus HQ rate is not linear, yeah. I think it's a quadratic function? Either way, the further in the end you are the higher it it gets

    Not necessarily quadratic, it only needs to curve one way. It could just be a simple slope equation that varies with the max quality of each item as a variable that defines the curve.
