    what am i doing wrong

    OK so i got my guilt tapestry today

    making me clothcraft 99 +3 +3 which should make me t2 on things 74 and under and t1 on 94 and under with synth support


    so i baught a ton of mats and made tons of stuff here is my record

    T1 rainbow capes 0/45 with 3 breaks errant slops 0/6 with 1 break

    t2 Prince slops 0/6 with 1 break and jesters cape 1/13 no breaks


    this is terrible for what teir they are making me wonder if i did something wrong because i should have HQ'ed something i would think

    Re: what am i doing wrong

    yeah it just seems really bad ive always had back luck once i broke a nobles then 5 verms all in a row when they were t1 and t2 which i didnt think could happen. I would ajust thought bad luck if it was just the 0/50+ on t1 but the t2 being 1/21 is just unherad of when they are all in a row i thought maybe i had to do something different the the tapestry other then hang it in my mog house..... this is so frustrating. i spent so mcuh gil and time to get that thing and it has no payoff other then me waisting more gil


    on top of this luck my all time record for good t1's are

    nobles 1/37 (pure shit) and black cloak 1/112(even worse)

    and t0 is easily 0/400+ total counting blessed gear and cursed mitts/slacks/dalmatica's and 1 errant cape

    seems im doomed to have bad luck with crafting

    It happens. I've gone 0/90+ on Mahatma Slops, 0/10 on tier 3 synths, and broke 4/9 Vermies and 4/10 Nobles in a week. My overall t1 rate is about 4.5% out of almost 800 synths since I hit 99.

    However, Ive also made 3 Cursed Mitts -1, Kyudogi +1, Dalm -1, and Mahatma Cape(plus at least 1 of every other big CC synth). It'll come around in time. I had absolutely terrible luck for the longest time, but it comes around(and then bites you in the ass again). It's all a balance.

    And you don't have any furnishing in your mog house that has a stronger elemental strength than the Tapestry? You actually have Moghancement: Clothcraft?

    Re: what am i doing wrong

    end of day one with 99+3+3 clothcraft


    prince slops NQ: 6 HQ :1 Break:3 Jesters cape NQ:12 HQ:1 Red Cape NQ:10 HQ:4 Vermillion cloak NQ:2 HQ:0

    Rainbow Cape NQ:42 HQ:0 Break : 3 Errant SLops NQ: 15 Break: 1

    the only place i didnt have the shitties luck was with red capes which are shit profit anyway lol. Should i just wait till everything sells then have another big day where i go though all my gil or should i craft as things sell... Any other clothcrafters out there have any words on the errant body i finally have gold 50 and was thinking of giving it a try maybe 12 at a time which is 750k cost and sells back at around 480k. about 2 million loss per 100 synths. HQ sells for 4 million on my server.

    Don't know how many times I've posted this, but 3/100 on Tier2 Amemet Mantles says crafting sucks dick.





    (and is 100% luck based)
