    Does anyone else find crafting to be bullshit ??

    0/30 HQing Eremite Rings (This was a while ago, dont remember moon phaze)
    0/30 HQing Dragon Leggings (Like 4 months ago, lost about 6 mil over that crap.
    0/12 last night HQing Igquira Manillas (90% Full Moon Lightsday facing north...the week before a friend of mine went 4/12 on 100% Full Moon Lightsday facing North on Triumph Earrings)


    The Rings + leggings were on "supposed" HQ moon/day.



    its just fucking bullshit >.>

    personally...... i synth whenever i feel like it, but usually by days. For expensive things i go by moon phase unless people just ask me to synth, then i synth whenever.

    I think it was the first time they killed Taimat, /points at video

    On the side note, I had hell crafting for HQ yesterday. Was making Capes for GP and I only had a couple of the bastards go +1, which was freakin annoying ~.~

    Definitely luck; after over a month of not HQing much of note, I hit Sheikh Seraweels and Mahatma Cuffs about 24 hours apart. Neither with support, facing any random direction, on some crap moon and random day, just synthing cuz I wanted to.

    I saw you trying to sell those dragon leggings, regardless thats alot of money =/ lost on those things. I to think it's just luck moon phase what not etc etc i'm sure it plays a small role in the crafting however not as big as everyone thinks.

    i cook, so even though i dont make "big ticket" item i probably do more actual crafting than most.

    My experience is that moon phase, direction, day, time of day means fuck all.

    I have HQ sole sushi 6 times in a row, to going 5 stacks of materials w/o an HQ.

    The big mystery about crafting, is that there really is no mystery

    I know this may not fall under category of high level crafting, but I find it strange that right now with my Alchemy at 60, I can't desynth Gobby Masks worth a damn, while when I was only 5 levels over cap, I was able to HQ them fairly easy. This really confuses me.
