The_Knight Report post Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) Hello, I have been working on alchemy for quite often the past 2 weeks. I feel like this really should be posted, it is not a flame. I have alch'ed quite a bit in the past 2 weeks: and I have noticed a change in the way I alch, in that I fail alot. For the past 2 weeks I have been failing more and more, and the reason I initially posted this was because my last HE load, I failed 1/5 HE in 5/6 fp's. Yet even worse, 2 days ago failing 3 FE in a row. I was failing less at lvl 60, and it has been downhill. I am now level 67, working towards the top, and I would like to see a change in my fails for the better. **Please, any alchers who might have experienced this please post comments** I have talked on channels about this problem and many have agreed with me. I know there has been some posts about this "Bug" before, and I would like to bring it before you once again. I would like to see myself become a better alchemist, but as I grow levels I only become worse. Best Regards, Knight Edited February 22, 2007 by The_Knight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atlantis Report post Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) With current alch of 102, here are approximate fail rates on the things I alch most Steel Bar 1/500 HE 1/150 LE 1/200 FE 1/75 Hydro Bar 1/142. Wolfram Bar 2/57. The last two numbers are exact. The others are averages. Yes, it doesn't make sense. Yes, it's been talked about before. That's just the way it is. #edit: added hydro & wolfram bar #edit2: The FEs are also really inconsistent, more than the others. Some days I make as many as 1k without failing, some days I fail 4 times in 50 ess. Edited February 22, 2007 by Atlantis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Luck is a bitch sometimes. People notice the FE failure smore because they usually make more FEs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
