IMO its probalby random tho there are caps on how high the different qualitys can go. premium beeing the only one able to go 50 -9 and vise versa

It seems the higher level my jedi goes the better tunes im getting. I seem to remember a post here somewhere talking about total force pool having something to do with it. My tunes average has definetly gotten better with skill though. Maybe a coincidence.

Tuning is random, although it works similary to slicing it seems. In that depending on the skill level of slicing, or in case of crystal tuning the quality of the crystal, will set the maximum and minimum values for whatever ultimately calculates the stats.

i agree whole heartedly gaffacus....i surely hope there is more to it than my theory. but alas it is just a theory. any clue as to the real reason would only mean we have competent customer service. we only pay a monthly fee to enjoy something and yet we are given no directions what so ever...is par for the course

i by no means think that i know everything, but have looted a lot of crystals in my day and more recently premium pearls from krayts. what i can tell you is my theory...
over the past few weeks i have tuned around 12 premium pearls, 6 premium elder looted crystals, and 25-30 various other crystals from janta/mokk and fs guys on dant.
i am a knight with master ls...do not think this should matter but it may. my theory is that the chance of premiums tuning to a great tune (i rank great tune as 40-50 dmg -9 fc) are greater than that of a fair or any other quality rating tuning to great.
flawless 85-90% chance
premium 80-85% chance
select 60-70% chance
quality 20-30% chance
good 10-20% chance
fair and poor 1-5% chance
these are not exact testing but due to the "randomness" of great tunes i would be inclined to say these are close. with that being said i have a collection of 18 great tuned pearls/crystals. of those 18, 14 were from premium pearls, 2 from premium crystals, 1 from a good crystal, from a mokk shaman, and finally 1 from a fair looted from a janta. i tune every crystal i get just in the case that i get a great tune.
just my 2 cents
I have tuned about 30 quality and had none with Force Cost better than -7 ...
Not sure if this is correct cahn-a-licious....
I'll agree its for sure random - but mabye there is more to it than that......
