power-alex Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) So in one night we lost all our crit bonuses and affection crit bonuses and we have to now grind 250k influence for each companion - this is just too much trouble. Most of the skilll rendered useless by it. I was trying to get lvl 6 slicing parts to craft color crystals and out of like 20 attemts I got 0 purples Plus with kotfe removing some of the companions I fear to even improve infulence with my old ones in case I ever start kotfe. So far only one toon has done kotfe. Anyone gonna bother with influence? Edited October 26, 2015 by power-alex
OhrynKaloth Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 An influence 50 companion is giving you 25% of crit, if that's a loss for you ...
power-alex Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 to get to 50 influence is a huge undertaking for me. It used to take a couple of hours of gift farming with treasure hunting and you got 10k affection with all 5 companions. Now I've been playing all week and my lana is only like 22. rip the dream of being all around successful crafter/gatherer
Mithros Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 rip the dream of being all around successful crafter/gatherer Because in order to be "all around successful" you have to max influence within the week? I would say "RIP patience and a willingness to spend a little time working towards a goal".

For my Artificer, this is great, because Artifice has never had a historical crit bonus beyond the Legacy of Crafting and the +1 from Treek/HK-51. However, I haven't done any systematic tests of crafting rates, maybe I'll just stack up all my 10k/rank 10 companions with the stuff you make with grade 1 mats and see what actual crit rates I get.
