AidenPryde Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I've crafted roughly 30 of these: http://www.torhead.com/item/c2IKZ6E/battlemaster-vindicators-headgear My companion has +5 Synthweaving Critical and she is also at 10,000 (MAX) affection. I have not gotten an augment slot on any of them. However other Battlemaster Vindicator pieces I have gotten an augment slot after 2, 3, or 10 crafts... It is becoming extremely expensive to do these. Has anyone successfully crafted this item with an augment slot? Am I unlucky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollowson Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) Am having trouble crit crafting aswell, as off yesterday, crafted around 30 pieces aswell without a single augment slotted gear piece, maybe something changed or maybe thre is a new bug of some sort, or just our luck ran out . In my case it's about the warhero force master leg and feet piece. Edited April 28, 2012 by Hollowson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husofanten Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Random = Random... sometimes you just have bad luck. Even with a 50/50% chance of red and black, there are sometimes streaks with 15 times black when you play roulette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venomlash Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 The chance of 15 red in a row is 1/32768 I know, never tell me the odds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidenPryde Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Well I crafted 10 more, so around 40 crafted in total. Not spending anymore time on this. More than likely a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karenai Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Why on earth would you want that ugly piece of armour? Most things I make crit in 10 or less tries. But I had War Hero pieces which I had to make more then 50 of to get one with augments. Random is random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelodicSixNine Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Sadly it's totally normal. I had luck recently and I got my augemented armor after... 7th try, but the next day I crafted around 20 and still counting. Bioware said they will try to do something with losing streaks, because they are not fun. No ETA tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MystbladeWA Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Dont see why they should do anything about it tbh. Provided the system they say is random IS truly random and the modifiers they provide us (Companions bonus's/Affection) make the statistical changes they say they should then it should be left alone. A slight bump the the return of mats when you RE would be nice tho, just to take the edge of the financial strain one of these losing streaks can impose.

Crommi Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm beginning to get convinced that there's some difference in crit chance between different items (not just based on color/difficulty)... here's my two recent orders I filled up for my guildmates who ordered a sets of augmented pvp gear: Battlemaster Stalker (light armour) -Number of items crafted for one augmented version. 5 boots 4 hats 32 gloves 20 dresses 10 robes War Hero Weaponmaster (medium armour) -Number of items crafted for one augmented version. 1 gloves 1 leggings 3 chestpieces 8 boots All the crafting was done using Kira, who has +5% crit for Synthweaving and another +5% crit from max affection. Sure, random is random but it's like a lottery and cost of a single augmented item can vary from 5000 to 150.000 or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
