phalczen Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I have probably RE'd about 20 of these in the past two days (spending easily 2+ million, thank goodness for being able to solo heroic 2's on belsavis now), and no schematic learned. Obviously the schematic could be learned at one point recently since the ones I used were all crafted by other players, but I am wondering if they were all made pre-2.0.1. Has anyone else experienced this run of bad luck, the probability of which is 0.0000000000001%?
-Nengtaka Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) I have not been able to get the schematic from REing either. Edited May 2, 2013 by -Nengtaka Wrong crystal
Ciryandir Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I've had a similar run of bad luck with R/E'ing Cyan and Blue-Black Hawkeye color crystals. I've r/e'd a dozen or so over the last couple weeks with no success.
Docmal Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I learned this schematic with no problems. Are you doing the trick where you put the crafted crystal into a weapon then remove it? This is the only way you can learn a crafted one.

Has anyone else experienced this run of bad luck, the probability of which is 0.0000000000001%? Actually, the chance of RE'ing 20 without learning a schematic is a little over 1%, so while it's very unlikely it is possible (if 100 players are trying to learn that schematic, one of them may have to be that unlucky bastard). That's the unfortunate truth of the RE'ing system.
AdmiralSchaal Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I REd it and got it on my first try so then I bought like 10 purple hawkeyes and didn't get anything. Lucky and unlucky at the same time.
Cupelixx Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I had that happen with Purple Hawkeye, got it on the 14th RE. Black-Purple Hawkeye on the other hand, I got in one try. It's just luck.

That's the unfortunate truth of the RE'ing system. Yes, you are correct, it's .8 ^ 20 not .2 ^ 20. Thanks, it doesn't seem quite as bad now, I'm just slightly unlucky not impossibly unlucky.
