Noble's Tunic best synth time?

From: Momo Guest Posted: 2005-04-30 10:20:45	Reply Quote
What is the optimal time to craft a Noble's Tunic? I don't care about getting an HQ, I just want to reduce the chance of a break. Earthsday, Full Moon? Lightsday, Full Moon? I had a chart on this, but I seem to have lost it... Thanks~

Well I talked to a level 99 Clothcrafter and they said Earthsday/Fullmoon would be the lowest chance of failure. Does anyone have one of those charts that lists the likelyhood of HQ/success based on day/moonphase? The link I used to have is long broken and I didn't save the picture.

any time, any moonphase. nobody has ever conclusively proved anything about break rates w.r.t. moon/day.

I wasn't asking for exact percentages, and accurate likelyhood charts DO exist. If you don't believe moonphase and day effects these things you have either never crafted in your life, or have never talked to any veteran crafters. [mod edit: Let's keep it clean]

Disputing my crafting experience is -- to put it mildly -- laughable. I don't want to turn these boards into a flamewar location (thats what KI and Alla are for :-P) so I'll keep on topic: Can you link one of these "accurate" charts which supports its findings with hard data? Or, are all these charts accepted with little or no foundation in hard data?

LOL. You're probably the only "crafter" I've ever talked to that believes day/moonphase has no effect on results. Hard data? You don't need it when you observe that you're breaking multiple level 16 bolt synths on darksday at 95 woodworking. This isn't superstition, it's simple observation and experience. If you're expecting exact percentages ripped from game files you're never going to get it. These are conclusions arrived at through experience, just as you claimed that a skillcap was wrong in another thread based on having synthed it 9 times (/laugh again).

Since it is so obvious I am wrong, it should be easy to find one of these charts, right? It should be easy to find the raw data they used to come to their conclusions, and also instructions on how to repeat their experiments.

However, you fail to provide any of this evidence, which should be extremely easy to gather since I am so obviously wrong. Instead you choose to attack me. This tells me that you have no evidence.
