Hello together,

I just had a really strange experience : I was crafting three Heavy Mineral Minings. Top components, top resources, everything fine. Then on the final build while experimenting the best i got was "good success" plus several "moderate" success. Result: 2x BER 12, 1 BER 11. Now i had a strong suspicion ... For testing i crafted a medium mineral harvester. Both on the component and the final build i got two "amazing success" and rest was "great success".

Now you ask what was the difference (besides heavy and medium) ... ? During the experimenation on the heavies i had my sword equiped ...
Can this really affect the experimentation ?? If yes it was a pricy lession ...

Ok, many thanks for your help and input :-)





MMORPGs are about immerson, not conquest. FPSs are about conquest, not immersion.
Powergamers want a FPS, but want an audience to admire them while they do it. That is why they flock to MMORPGs. l00k 4tz me, im d4 l33tz dud3z.

I have had similiar issues, with nothing in hand. I have a theory that when you start getting failures, the system piles a few in a row, like on some furniture the other day, not even the top end stuff.. I crit failed 4 times in a row on the same combine.

The rates of great success versus lower experimentresults like good success is essentially just a random event. I've not really seen any correlation to the product complexity either.


But its always possible you'll get a string of bad luck at some point. I think thats probably what you encountered. Poor results do sometimes seem to come in little spurts though.
