Crafting & Fracturing really rare items is a very negative experience and could be solved differently

@Pri

This needs to be fixed, unsure what in the coding makes end game items fracture 4-5x more than items pre-level 90 but that needs to be looked at.

Absolutely nothing. Just RNG.

Crafting feels kinda bugged

I appreciate that you are giving feedback on the way it feels. That’s valuable feedback. It isn’t bugged but I totally hear you that it feels that way. This is something that we are working to remedy and have a prototype that we have been testing but it isn’t quite right. So, finding that 80% of items fracture by 60% success rate actually makes a lot of sense if you do the math behind it. Let’s say an item starts at 95% success rate and goes down by 5% each time you craft. I know that’s not qu…

Craft Fake % succes

This. Mike has also talked on several occasions about how we’re psychologically inclined to weigh the failures more heavily than the successes, which gives the impression that the percentages are off when they’re actually just fine. I know there have been times when I was like “this is busted” but then I get a good run, and just have to remember that it all evens out in the end.

Conclusion after a long break

Keep up the good work, but please don’t change the crafting too much, or just don’t implement % to apply random affix… Blockquote
