[quote][i]Quote from: Sheeny[/i] Specifically, there are 3 tiers of HQ chance. Being 10.1 levels above the recipe cap offers Tier 1 HQ. It's a 10% chance to HQ. 30.1 levels above the cap offers Tier 2, 30%. 50.1 levels above the cap offers Tier 3, 50%. So HQ'ing rocks (20 cap) needs a goldsmithing skill of 30.1 or higher to break Tier 1 and be able to HQ about 10% of your synths. You must break a Tier to get the HQ bonus. Being 20 or 25 or even 30.0 is the same and you'll have about a 1% chance to HQ (no Tier). Guild equipment (with +1 to your craft) and Advanced Synthesis Support (temporary +3 to your craft) DO count for breaking Tiers. Being 29 with +3 Advanced Support will break the 30.1 and put you into Tier 1 HQ. As for recipes that have HQ1/2/3 results like your rocks? There's no definitive answer. The higher you are the more HQ's will come out as HQ2 or HQ3 but it's not down to a science as the HQ Tiers have been found to be. Warning on rocks: Black and White rocks have the same HQ1 result as NQ. Black Rock NQ: Onyx HQ1: Onyx HQ2: Painite HQ3: Deathstone Many new goldsmithers get confused when they HQ1 a Black/White rock and get the same NQ result when they clearly saw the HQ animation.[/quote]
