Capped Success Rate = Officially [Stinks]

[tuis]

The order:
1 GM chain BP + aug
1 GM chain legs + aug
1 GM chain helm + aug
1 GM chain boots + aug
Should take 14 scales right?

Making bricks:
6-combine attempt...failed, 2 recovered
rest successful

BP take 1 - full failure
BP take 2 - full failure
Helm - success
Boots - success
Boot aug - success
Helm aug - success
*get more scales/hides*
BP take 3 - full fail
BP take 4 - success
BP aug take 1 - full fail
BP aug take 2 - success
*get more scales/hides*
Legs take 1 - success
Legs aug take 1 - full fail
Legs aug take 2 - fail, scale recovered
Legs aug take 3 - success

So, 14 scales and 2 hides poofed...**** near 500k...most of it was the other guy's money, but it friggin hurts to be the one wasting it. I threw in a couple of my own scales and ores as comps, though. Ended up using over double what the order should've taken. Just pisses me off. I understand the stuff is supposed to be "hard" to make, but control it using the trivial skill level and not some hardcoded YOU WILL FAIL a quarter of the time but you wont know when. Look at my sig...not 100% perfect but **** close. Hell I dont fail near as much on my Halfling and he's at 260 skill.

Back to work...

You had bad run. I failed over 20 hides on my own set. Leg and chest have 60% hard cap and even wiyth salvage aa, I only salvaged 2 hides out of the entire attempt. The hard cap stinks.

[Denidil]

terminology which refers to minority groups used as a negative = bad, mkkay?

[tuis]

Get over it.

[Rawckett]

I remember the fellow doing my High Elf BP failed twice before suceeding the 3rd time. He did the aug no problem though =). The BP and aug should have taken 4 MDS, but I think it ended up taking me 9 MDS. He didn't charge me for the combine once he finally suceeded though, as we had originally negotiated a 25k price to do the combine, as he felt bad for the the previous failures and lost MDSs

[Ngreth Thergn]

Get over it.

No.

Last warning.

I will not put up with bigotry of any sort other than discrimination against bigots. I just wish Bigotry was in a minority, and not as pervasive as it is.

I am very serious about this.

Normally I would let Verdandi handle this, but this is an exception.

These boards are NOT directly tied to SOE, and my actions here have nothing to do with SOE. My personal money is involved here, the loss I claimed on taxes last year is proof that i do not do this site to make money, and that SOE has nothing to do with it.

As long as my money is going into this site I will not tolerate that word being used on these boards. If you cannot help spewing bigotry then get off these boards. I am not asking you to apologise, I am just telling you that it will not be tolerated here.

[Diani]

Thank you Ngreth for keeping these boards clean

and an even bigger thank you for having this website and boards in the first place

[KyrosKrane]

The message had a very different word in the place of [stinks].

[Ngreth Thergn]

Closing this thread anyway since it has managed to diverge from the original topic.

If some-one wants to bring up the original rant (without the bigotry) they are of course allowed within our rules.
