I just got master artisan, and used a +15 tool, +43 station, and high Conductivity resources, the best I can get is +13.something, I also noticed I have 1 experimentation point remaining but can't use it b/c all the boxes are filled...How do you make +15 tools?

Yep.


I use a Polysteel copper with a CD rating of somewhere near 990, and best I can make is 14.9 or so.

Yes, you do need 1000 con metal to make +15s.


If you're getting +13s, then they most probably about 93-96% when u experiment. Which should equate to you using metal with conductivity of 930 to 960. It's a pretty direct relationship.


I believe there was a period a while ago when the game was bugged or something when u could experiment them up to 15, but that ended


Using high end crafting tools/stations helps u get better crafting results, such as 'a great success' or whatever, but doesn't effect the end value you can achieve.

Actually you could only make them for one day. "Crafting Day" They roled in a patch that had crafting changes on it but the up roar over the changes convinced them to not bring it live but.... it was already in the patch they were bring out, so for one day we could see the Artisan changes and play around with them and see if they were as scary as everyone was thinking they were. The next day they patched the changes out. Truthfully I'm not all that sure what all the changes involved(I was only new to the whole crafting thing then) but I was smart enough to run off extra schematics(used 998 conductive copper to get the +15's, also made perfect 100% repair tools. Of course I've yet to sell a single clothing one :smileysurprisedand keep the resources in the bank so i could sell them from time to time. The darn things sell anywhere from 10k -25k each.

I think MTaffin is correct, as far as I know it was only possible to make 100% of any stat on any item on that one day.

This may be incorrect, but every item I have ever seen with 100% was made on that day.

True. It was a great patch for artisans, and one line experimentors. For mutiple lines, it was horror reborn. Some of the best armor we've seen, came as a result of using one line 100% layers, with multi-line segs and final combine. It was taking the best of both worlds and combining. Hams on armor under that system would have become so high that even buffing might have had trouble getting it on. We would have had higher resists than now, but unwearable. Or really incredible hams, with no resists. It would really have increased the gap that 12 pointers represent.


For artisan , it was a blessing. I made a schematic for BER5 personal minerals. I made a few BER 5 chems ( I have 2 left I use personally). I also made a single BER 10 wind ( I use it because it provides enough power to run my 4 heavies and 3 factories, with acouple k power a week left over!). The advantage of that system meant that quality of a resource wasn't as important. You could use lesser resources and still madeperfect powerups. People were using 960 con coppers and still getting +15 crafting tools, 100% repair tools.

Just an FYI, it is still possible to craft +15 crafting tools... I made some more just recently using 1000 CD copper.

OK, just for reference, a human has an extra experimentation point to use so that helps a ton. It's still possible to make the 15 rating tools with and without the 1k cd copper we had on Brian back in November. I've personally seen a guy make one on the spot with 990ish resources. The trick is to make sure that the high rated stuff fills the slots it's only needed for and use resources without a cd rating in the rest.
