Thread: Hand crafting, how do you do it?

How do you not put your fist through the wall while experimenting? I have horrible luck and I've lost a lot of time and stuff to failures and the like, but man it just sucks spending an hour making runs of separate health enhanced segments to have it all come down to being ruined by one bad experimentation roll.

I got almost done with an R.I.S. right bracer while waiting for my factories to run...6556 K/E, 5444 elemental, +50 health, 4 sockets...critical failure on condition. Oh well, I guess it's a good candidate for an ADK.

Ive just lose 12 +20 Ns shards, because of a factory bug with stacked layors, I am now crafting +350 enhanced RIS and one dude has ordered 1 x ris and 2 x bh all with full heatlh on.

They way this works for factory runs is insame, remove the serial code and allow us to wack as many janta hides into a factory.

I basically just did the same thing,same stats asyours , +50 health , the whole bit.....2 critical fails on condition !!!!


I just spent 2 mil last night to get +25 assembly so I could avoid this, I even had py cake and port in me too.


I fully expect the once in a while failure even with +25 assembly, but not 2 in a row. I am 12 pt. , so I had enough points to recover from 1 failure but not 2.

get force experimentation as well. I almost never had a failure (like once every month or two) after I got that

Bonuses to experimentation make a huge difference as well. I have +25 to experimentation and only one box of FS experimentation. That's enough so that I never crit fail and rarely have less than a great success. I don't get too many amazings, however. That seems to be where the FS branch helps out.

more amazings=less failures and less "good" combines

I finally finished my +350 RIS suit, ended up with the one crappy piece, but since it's 4 sockets I'm sure it'd be a good ADK piece.

I haven't had the adrenaline rush, pure excitement, and sheer terror in this game since random BH attacks back when I played my Jedi still.

I ended up with 88k condition, I assume that will go up a bit if I had 12pts and could do some condition on the cores, right?

The cores will help a bit, but concentrate more on getting better Chron Alum and Talus Fiber.

I like how you make it sound like we stop at the 7/11 to pick one up. (shakes head)

Ah, okay, I'll look into that. I noticed I had two pts left over.

I think I did all right for my first full suit of armor ever. The new system was a bit daunting at first but now it seems simple. I got 6556K/E resists and 5444 base so I don't think I'll bother trying to do better. I ended up with 20 total sockets and +350 health so it's more of a trophy thing for me.

I have seen people get glowing in one day before (noob quests and kash badges count now), and it is not hard to do in a week as a casual gamer (if you have the profession masteries). After you are glowing get a freind to babysit you while you wait for sith (after the old man), then go to village. If you hand craft, the village boxes will come over time, just take a trip here or there as you cap out armor xp.
