If you do them all in one go, then the system message you get is only for the last point. Since you did 6 points at one time, you could have gotten 2 amazings and 4 greats on the first one, and then 5 greats and 1 amazing on the second one. That is why you can have a worse overall experimentation with the second try than the first. If you are going to do more than 1 point at a time, then you need to look at the percentage that you have. Each great add 7% and each amazing adds 8% to your experimentation totals, so doing 6 at a time can give you a range of 42%-48% increase, which can make the difference between what you got with your experimentations.


I hope this helps





Please drop any auction winnings at my vendor on Corellia. It is Abilof Weapons at -1803 2347 just east of the Kor Vella starport or the Fort Qui shuttleport.

This thread discussed the fact that apparently if you are experminting on multiple lines at the same time, and amazing result will only be applied to one of the lines.


As far as the difference in SAC,there are hidden decimals in there that may have edged you up or down.

WHOA.....is this really how it works? I was under the impression that an amazing result applied to all the points used in that try.

Thank you! That enlightens me a fair bit and I'll have to start paying more attention to my results, and stop using all my points at once

Seakringe this was how it worked before the CU, but I do believe it has changed since then to what Grooper descriebes. That is at least what I have been experiencing when trying to double cap. If I get 2 amazings (using 8 then 4 ppoints I double cap, if not I dont. If it worked like before the CU there would be times where I wouldnt double cap even with 2 amazings).


I think The reason for the different results is due to what grooper explained with the system message only applying to one line.
