Ok im getting 30% more critical failures on final Krayt weapon combines at least then I did a week ago. I have been getting at least 30% more less than greater results. This is making me seriously upset. Everyone in the same boat?

From what I hear on the armorsmith boards, and from my experience in architecture, you are right. There seems to be some new code in that checks OQ and malleability on all combines and experiments, and is causing a lot more critical failures and experimental failures than before. What a happy joyous world we live in...

Im about to just stop doing custom weapons period. This is insane. It went from fine to bad to worse in the last month. I bet 80% of the premium craftspeople on the servers dont need the money anymore anyway. I certainly dont, this is just taking the fun completely out of it.

Better way would be just to make it very hard to get good tools by making rare parts go into them that were hard to find or something not nerf the whole profession.

It brings new meaning to the word "Master"

Some days I'd swear I was only holding the Novice skill box.

I noticed this also... I had to drop about 5 guns to make a schematic for a t21 with all great successes. Now my stores of polonium are severely diminished.

Between the house limit thing, the factory things, and this thing.. it is very frustrating to be a master WS.

yeah, that way it makes those uber loot pre-crafted drops more valuable. We get accused of stealing loot or at the minimum being a schwagg smith whereas pre-made uber loot has no change of failing on assembly.

Its a pain altoghether. Making a schematic takes longer. And for things that must be hand made such as krayts. It sucks. I put one together tonight and got four moderates. Still came out okay...its definetly more fun to get all greats though.

I officially have stopped taking custom weapon orders. I got tired of being the executor of destrution with high end krayt the people have spent weeks to afford or retrieve.

before the change 1 in 40 crits

after 2-3 weeks ago 1 in 20 crits

after 2-3 days ago 1 in10 crits

With 2 possible critical combines in a weapon with power im getting about 20% failure rate. Im willing to take the loss of my own materials but its to heartbreaking to watch the loss of others at this rate.

These are totally estimated figures based on several hundred combines a day. Im funding a more scientific examination with another WS willing to spend the time on my server. We are specifically testing the diff between a droid anda personal crafting station thinking (hoping)that the nerf source was on the station.
