I read somewhere that if your primary attibute is a prime number then the RNG gets confused while doing some log function and it ends up giving a much less chance of success. Anyone have any statistics on skillups based on different primary attribute numbers? Would 216 (2*2*2*3*3*3) be better than 241 (prime)? This would be pretty tough to check but interesting it it proved true.

Hmmmm
If it were true, how would you prove it, unless you had access to the source code?
If you feel better without a prime number for a stat, go for it. I will not do combines in a forge unless I physcially abuse the forge first. My success rate is 70% when I abuse the forge before doing combines. It drops to 30% when I do not abuse it. I will not click combine unless I feel 'lucky'... I've made people sit there for 4 minutes, because I didn't feel 'lucky'. This was after I abused the forge, of course. Result? 3 of 3 on nightmare chain.
If you have a superstition that you believe in, why bother taking chances?
