HQ question

[Knightmare]

I wasn't sure where else to ask but I was wondering how the HQ tiers worked for things that have multiple HQ levels like a goldsmithing colored stone synth that has up to HQ4.

HQ4 doesn't exist (I'm assuming you mean 71 over?). The max is HQ3 and 50% HQ.

For desynths, no idea, I hate them.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but your HQ Tier does not effect which HQ result you receive. But from my personal experiences, I would agree with Aurik in this thread, viewtopic.php?f=12&t=22233&hilit=hq3, (which i found with a quick search), that the ratio of HQ1:HQ2:HQ3 results is 12:3:1.

That, thread over.

that the ratio of HQ1:HQ2:HQ3 results is 12:3:1.

I really, really wish I could agree with those numbers. My goldsmithing mule cuts 50-70 colored stones at a time, and I count myself very lucky to get one single HQ3 (two sets out of three I get zero HQ3 stones -- so that's about 1 in 150-200 synths that I get a HQ3). Level 20-ish synth, she's 93+3.

Darned mithra must be broken. I think I need to beat her more.

Personally cut thousands of stones, I can only agree with those numbers.
