  • Failing over 50% on trivial brewed items

    Since I have been brewing ( about 2 months) I have consistently failed 50 % or more on Beer-based batter and Beer braising sauce. Both of these are trivial to me since my skill is 95 and has been since I started making them.

    Today I got 36 beer braising sauces from 80 tries. The cost of sugar is killing me.

    When I try to petition I get an error after I "search" for articles on "brewing".


    Is anyone else having this problem?

    You might want to try to raise your brewing a little higher. Its insanely easy and at 136, I'm only failing like once per couple of stacks.

      Thanks Akishka,

      I raised my brewing to 134 and have since had great success.

      I'm still annoyed that trivial isn't really trivial with brewing whereas with baking I am very successful with recipes way over my skill level, go figure.


      Thanks again,

        I got mine up so high because I was failing heady kiolas so often, well above trivial, so I know the feeling. Glad its better for you!

          Don't think of trivial as what normal people would consider the definition as. Remember, this is SONY we're dealing with. Trivial levels should really just say skill level. because even then, there's a large room for error. I mean think about it, they say you must be 200 or more points above the triv level just to get a 95% reduction in fails... There's ALWAYS a 5% failrate... now, normal people would think... Gee, I have a 250 skill (252 modified) WITH trophy, you'd THINK something with a trivial of anything under .. say 100.. should become NOFAIL... again, who ever said SONY was normal??
          Now, I'm not Sony bashing, just saying they don't think like the rest of us. it's now a week after release of OOW and I know some people who are still getting the "do you want to download OOW?" message

            I'm happy to hear you're having a lot more successes.

            One thing about "trivial." Trivial does not mean that an item is easy to make. It just means that you can no longer raise your skill from making that item. At the low end of the skill levels, you have about a 66% chance to make an item that is trivial exactly equal to your skill level (assuming no geerlok.) It gradually increases until you hit 95% somewhere around 175.

              Thanks for all the good information. I wish I had come here before I spent so much time and money on Beer batter, lol.

              I have so much to learn.
