Started to make 4 RIS parts last night 2 biceps and bracers, seemed to take an age for the primas layors to run, worked out at around 1 hour per core.

Managed to get 2 RIS biceps made before I logged but I somehow managed to get 3 Critical failures in the crafting process I wasted a segment with a health bonus on, then a +50 health bonus core failed, and get this crafted a piece of +50 health enhanced RIS and blow me another critical failure, all this in a research city, +25 Assemble clothing and an insperation buff.

Was fuming and had to give up for the night shall finish the other two pieces tonight.

That's just awful. Sounds like you needs some bespin port for insurance on the next go around.

Well it was a mad day yesturday logged in to check mails and was gunna play wow all day, then had 5 tells at the same time all wanting something so i crafted 2 full suits of Bh armor, some Bh armor parts and then some ubese helmets, and not one critical failure. i basically spent the whole of yesturday crafting, a lot of hand made bits for the health bonus, managed to find 15 +15 health scales in a house too so im happy.

for some reason whenever I do RIS it seems I average a critical failure that drops me to 0% once every 4th piece. I pretty much refuse to make RIS anymore because of this. All my other armor usually turns out fine tho.

i've done ALOT of hand crafting, lots of custom orders - and i've found i have less crit fails without the insp buff. i see more amazings, but also more crit fails with the buff - so i do not use it anymore. i crafted 8 suits of RIS in one setting last night (trying to get a set with max sockets) and only had a crit fail on 1 piece.

more testing is needed before id stand behind it 100%, but i feel something is screwy with the insp buff and crit fails.

I wonder if perhaps the insperation buff gives a 10% chance of amazings, and a 10% better chance of critical failures. If this is the case it would make sense. And that is also a very simple error to make when programing in the inspiration buffs. If Caile could talk to the dev's about this it would be awesome. Should be easy to check into as well if this is the case.

All I know is when I craft in health enhancers I get WAY more goods and failures. I tried making a run of a stack of 11 krayt scales and by the time I got a result with two great successes I had 3 scales left.

Then I go craft without enhancers and go over a dozen experimentations without anything below great.

I'm wondering if something is up with experimentation difficulty and enhancers.
