I can't get a 100% today. Yesterday it wasn't too hard to get to 100% with decent resources and 10 exp points. That new experimentation worked out well for DE's. I guess it had to go.

Yes, it was hotfixed out this morning.

It worked out well any time you only wanted to experiment on a single line, but was dramatically worse if you wanted to experiment on more than one line.

I made a number of schematics, though, so that I'd still have access to the good stuff. I can make 100% Droid Storage Compartments, 100% Combat Modules, and 100% crafting tools (15.0!) of all types.

I had the opposite experience. I think it has to do with your server and resources, to be honest.

The best cond/OQ combination to spawn on mine lately iscopperlike 900+ cond, and 750+ OQ. We have had 1000cond, but it has crappy OQ. I tried lots of combinations of 950+ OQ and the 1000cond, and nothing worked as well as the combat modules as just the original 900+Cond/750+OQ copper.

In this case, I got slightly better results (about 3-4 points) than I got yesterday. I have 5K droid brains sitting in factories and made schematics yesterday, and the ones I'm using to run combat modules on is the one I created today.

The crafting changes would have been wonderful had they been implemented in beta, but changing such fundamental things would have done the opposite of what they were trying to accomplish - the economy would have gone deeper into the hole and not the other way around.

You probably did this, but just in case you didn't...

In order to get better-than-expected results yesterday I had to do the experimentation 1 point at a time and had to get at least 1 Amazing result while all of the rest of the results had to be at least Great.

All greats resulted in an item that was, as you experienced, slightly worse yesterday than today. There was something about an Amazing result during experimentation yesterday that unlocked additional potential.

As a concrete example, the Droid Storage Compartments that I was able to make at 100% yesterday are only 96% today. But they were only 94% yesterday if I did not experiment 1 point at a time and get at least 1 Amazing result.

Bah, I didn't even think to do this. I logged on, made a couple droids, ran 400 100% combat modules and logged off and went to bed. I wasn't even thinking of the storage compartment boosts. We will never see 100% one of those again.

(man, I hate the default color they are using in the forum texts now. Do they want me to go blind squinting to read it ? )

Probably trying to blind us so we can't see to complain!

When I made a 15.00 Crafting tool I made sure to make a stockpile of the schematics. 3 1000 sized of each Tool, 5 of each Repair kit. 100.0 Weapon Repair kits anyone?
