I just really don't know what to say. Sometimes I need to vent. So here we go.

As a Master Doc, I like seeing what sorts of stats I can achieve on my buffs. Of course, the best way to do this is to pick up some Janta Blood, and carefully craft a couple of the things by hand. After three days of killing Jantas, and not finding any Janta Blood (mind you, I kept seeing other people in the group looting it, the lucky stiffs), I finally caved in and bought myself 350-400k worth. Eighteen jars. While I was at it, I went ahead and snatched up an Apron for my little +5, thinking that every little bit helps.

Shuttle back home (to a Research Centre no less) and sit down for some crafting. First attempt? Failure. Thought I was glad to get it out of the way. Went on to craft a somewhat decent buffpack (only 2651, but my highest yet). Second pack? Not a failure, but a couple of 'good successes'. Eh? I'm capable of getting 50 'great successes' in a row (okay, maybe not fifty) but now with Janta Blood and my apron, I'm getting failures and less than Greats in swift succession? Shrug it off, keep on crafting. In the end, after a couple more failures and less than greats, I'd wasted my eighteen jars of Janta Blood with only two buffpacks to show for it.

Keep in mind that I'm wearing an Apron, AND in a Research Centre. Oh, yeah, and I'm a Master Doctor (not the novice I felt like). I don't even know what to say. I'm beyond angry. It's this kind of crap that makes me wonder about the whole shebang. Not long before I drop Master Doctor for another Combat Profession. At least they work.

Feel free to share your losses and frustrations here as well. I'm certain I'm not alone.

Statistics get the best of all of us now and then. All I can say is you win some, you lose some. Maybe if you tried it again you'd get great successes every time.

Oh, believe you me, I'm a glutton for punishment. (That's why I'm going to be playing JTL. ) I'll be trying again, just more than likely not for a while. I need some time to /cry.

Oh, and your resource filter is 'kin ace! Thank you very much for putting it together.

hehe i had a similar experiance with looted blood i collected from my guild.

i ended up with only an action and health buff - not even that uber. this was with 16 bloods.

this made me realize that i really cant compeat with the pro crafters and i now buy buffs.

i feel for ya. the recomendation above regarding crafting food is a great help. but its late for me, my son (no vader icon)

its funny - a master doc does not really need uber janta buffs for himself, and he wont waste them on the public. so i never ended up using them! i used them on a few guildies - but then they said that they are not time matched. even thoguh i got the "oh wow what was that?"

jsut dont craft - it will make life more plesant.

I just use janta blood for poison/disease resists and stim B's for friends with novice medic when they pvp.

I spent too long collecting them and then ran into the same problem as yourself. Being a 10 pt doc, I felt at least the blood wouldbe a little more use this way, seeing as how I only really buff myself and friends and can use stim E's on myself or onthem.

Some days are terrible for crafting certain packs, I justgive upand try the next day, usually with much better results
