What the hell is wrong with crafting ?

[TrystWildkey]

It's gotten to the point for me that unless I get it to 100%, I assume it's NOT going to hq.

And on the flip side of that, I seem to get more hq results from 15-20% than I do from 85-95%.

Mind boggling.

Most of the time, I really, really hate RNG, but to be fair, RNG started it

Why is it like this is the first game to ever include percentage probability?

Why doesn't anyone understand the difference between predicted probability and historical probability? What are they even teaching in schools these days?

The success and failure %s are way off for sure. I'm at the point where I'm going to begin taking manual data just to prove this.

I think good condition and excellent condition reduce the success chance by a lot. I also think the success chance is lower depending on the level of the item vs you. I don't think it's absolute.

I've noticed while mining that 90%+ fails at a consistently high rate.
The % rate given is not accurate.
I was told by my friends that this is Squeenix math and that anything less than 100% cannot be trusted.

I'm trying to level up my Alchemist there and on level 38 i'm trying to craft some potions for leves.

I was so happy when i got 95% quality, but it DIDN'T craft the HQ item !
Next one, i get 5% quality, i get the HQ one....

I don't get it, what is wrong with the craft ?

It strikes me that you have no idea how percentages and random chances work.

The RNG gods hate me too.

Hey, you haven't missed 4 gathers in a row at 98% yet so feel lucky.

[Karari]

The RNG is really bad in this game, I seem to get a series of bad or good luck (seen easiest when gathering). I failed a 5 in a row 99% success gather. Granted, that should happen every 1 in 10000000000 but it's still pretty outrageous when it happens to you.

How could it possibly be that "RNG is really bad in this game"??? That doesn't make any sense. It's random. You got unlucky. That doesn't reflect on the game in any way shape or form. It's not like the random number generate sits there and goes "Well we could put this 99 out there and he will get his HQ, but we think it's time to hate on the player a little bit. Lets throw that 2 out there instead." It doesn't work that way. It is completely random.
