Thread: Does Resource Quality really matter?
Since Tailors no longer have experimentation (not that it worked anyways), I was wondering if resource quality really does effect how well our clothing comes out now?
I just got my tailor to Master, and she's having a heck of a time getting 4 sockets on the simpilest of items (like leather gloves lol, yet has little problem on higher level stuff,so I was wondering if it was a resource issue, or just a fluke?
Is there a point, other than personal preference, to use higher quality materials if they do not effect the clothing?
watch out when making clothing that is complexity +20ish, esp. b.e clothing. u will crit and sometimes you will come out with less than 4 sockets.
however it's all very random. i once used inert petro of OQ 120 on 5 tactical skinsuits and didn't crit once, altho 2 came out 3 socket. the next day i critted twice in a row.
there's a handfull of different types of clothing that are hard to get 4 sockets in. Leather gloves are a pain for me as well, takes me 5 or more tries typically to get 4 sockets for leather gloves.
I have a suspician that they work off artisan, or something... who knows, they're bugged whatever it is cause I can produce master clothing all day and get 9 out of 10 4 socketed but making leather gloves I get 1's, 2's, 3's, and 1 in 5 to 1 in 10 4's.
Anything down in artisian definately uses your artisian skill - and many tailors give up those points by the time they hit master.
I've suspected for awhile the things that give general crafting up in the tailor tree may also be using artisan skill - I know they've changed a few of those - not checked in awhile any that might be left.
Well I'd agree that leather gloves come out so bad based on Artisan Skill, but I am a master artisan as well, and I still can't make a silly pair of 4 socket leather gloves.. lol it's frustrating! Yet I can make Master Tailor items with 4 socks no problem at all..
My main concern tho..is does resource quality truly have an effect on our products? I want to say no, from my personal experience..but wanted a consensus from other tailors as well...
Thanks again ![]()
Personally, I don't believe resource quality makes a difference without experimentation.
