Thread: As anyone noticed how bad crafting got with 18?
Possibly all the crap I go through, getting all the bestequipment, food, skill tapes, etc,I can and trying to makeevery experimentation pointas good as it could be actually did help? Maybe it was broken when you tried it last time, and the fixes are what your vetching about now? You're the 'expert crafter' here, why are you complaining about failing while I don'tget what you're talking about?
You've got me wondering...

Hrmm did ya read the whole thread? I have many crafters (I own 8 accounts total) I have one toon that is a complete FS Crafter, I have almost every 12point suit for each profession, I use the best resources my server has ever spawned, I also use foods, the best crafting tools and station's and with ina research center. The purpose of the thread was to discuss if anyone else notice that after pub 18 there were alot more failures. On a side note I got the same result from a 10point crafter using the worst stuff. So how about u st fu and read the damn thread. It is 100% possible u did not have this problem. It could be that I craft alot more handcrafted items then u.
FS experimentation +20, never had anything less than a great success in shipwright, weaponsmith or armorsmith. Been this way for me since I got FS experimentation months ago.

Gosh, really? 8 characters? You must have better ability to make real life cash than spell. Or parents who have that ability.
I wasn'tnot trying to be nasty. I didn't call you an incompetent, did I? I just suggested that it wasn't the same for me and you're now trying to pull status on me? This is a video game. The more you play, the less respect I have for you. Eight characters and a full FS crafting tree on one of themdon't impress me in the slightest.
Go find an English teacher and quit trolling the forums.
I don't do a whole lot of crafting, so I don't know if this is normal or not.

I made 4 Elite Shields last night. I was using Pyollian Cake and Bespin Port. On the assemblies, I got all Great Successes (with the stats coming out exactly the same). I put 5 points in Front HP and 5 in Back HP (at the same time, so 1 Exp try only). All of them resulted in the "Great Success" message, but they had vastly different outcomes. The first one took both front and back HP to over 3.5K. The others were all different, ranging from 3.1K to 3.5K.

It's normal, yes. This happens because you're experimenting 2 stats at the same time, and the success message you get is a combination of the two rolls. You most likely got an amazing on 1 shield bank and a failure on the other one, or something like that.
This also happens when you experiment 2 stats with the same line, like when you're crafting a Lightsaber and experiment in both SAC and FC using experimentation points only in efficiency.
I crafted 4 shields. Experimented on 2 lines per shield. That's 8 expermimentation rolls. Of those 8, there was 1 definite failure, and maybe 4 great successes and 3 good successes. For someone using Bespin Port, the great successes seem little low given my limited experience.
Then again, I could be wrong. It could just be that reading this thread yesterday before doing my crafting made me pay attention a little more.

update today..
just sit down and started to craft mark I reactor overchargers
the first 4 came out nice. i could max on energy generation and 1 point on mass reduction. 5th with a moderate succes and 6th with a good sucess :/
this is a joke considering we handcraft all parts :/

Yeah that was pretty much my point. And when u use some very rare resources, and BAM get a failure on the last point when u have no choice but to hand craft, it stings worse then a saber poking u in the eye.
