i tuned 30 good pearls in the last 2 days, and got 6 over 100...one was 105, one was 107, with -5 to -7 FC
Impossible. I've tuned almost 100 crystals and pearls (all 'good') and have never had one go above 60 damage, -.17 speed, -6 FC.
What are you doing? Are you MLS? Please tell. You can send me a PM if there is some secret you know that the rest of us don't...
just because you had terrible luck Igot a 105 -0.13 -5 from a good pearl
Statistically, you will get 50% heads out of flipping a coin 100 times, but it does not mean, in reality, thatit will happen. You will never get 50-50 heads/tails split unless your sample size is HUGE. In the thousands or even tens of thousands you may get close but never exact.
In addition to the 120 damage pearl, which I consider about as perfect as can be expected for my sample size of around 50, I have 3 102 damage pearls ranging in FC from -3 to -6. I have some 60's damage pearls with -8 and -9 FC. I ignore speed since it seems to be broken or at least of minimal difference. It's all in how many samples you have, if you don't like your tunes, keep sampling. You will have to get more samples for "good" pearls and/or wait until if and when premiums are reintroduced.
I posted my tune not to claim I had a perfect tune, but to show you can get decent tunes. If you are going to insist on perfection, well, you are going to be disappointed with any statistical probability.There will always be someone who wouldn't be satisfied with any probability of perfect tunes less than 100%, and then it would make the rarity of such tunes irrelevant.
Do you seriously think that Tiggs is in any position to reveal the coding of the probability tables? Do you seriously think that even if she did that it wouldn't take something away from this game? If you want absolutes, a MMORPG is not the game for you. The mystery of tunes is part of the appeal of it.

u´ll never get a 120 0.3 -9 tune with a good pearl, as far as i know is, they never changed the hard caps on different quality pearls, so max of good should be 100 xxx.
Not tru I have a good pearl that tuned to 110 last week.
