I rarely do combines for others outside of my guild. I've had a couple of bad experiences with failures and peoples reactions to them....so, I normally don't do combines for anyone unless I know them.
Late last year I did a combine for someone who supplied everything needed, I just had to click a GM BP – which succeeded. He dropped 100k in the trade window when I gave him my success. Extremely generous and I thought that was the biggest donation I would ever see.
Last night I was contacted by someone for a sting of combines, for some reason I felt obligated to help them. It could have been the pleasant conversation and their friendliness, I'm not sure - but I knew I had to do it.
Today, I was handed 30 Metallic Drake Scales to make GM armor for all the slots except a BP, no augs. I failed the arms 3 times, but salvaged the sheet on 2 of the 3 failures. I succeeded on the Gloves, Legs, Boots, Helm, Wrists x2 on the first try. An Excellent run!
I returned the successes and scales to the customer, and for my time….I was given the remaining 18 Metallic Drake Scales and a couple of K to cover the vendor expenses of the bricks.
I’m currently speechless.
