Gun Parts?

[Pi dArtois]

Curious, there is fail, and there is fail that makes the weapon reduce by 1. What stat/attribute stops that 1 reduction when you fail? Cause I don't mind failing, but DAMN it pisses in my cornflakes when it reduces the part by 1 >.>

That's a flat calculation - basically, it rolls on success/failure. If fail, then it rolls 50/50 to determine breakage

[Pi dArtois]

50/50? For real? That's balls >.> I mean, why have 20 crafting if you can't reduce that 50/50?

Couldn't higher skill or higher dexterity stop it from nerfing the weapons part? *cries*

[Mordechai]

the higher crafting keeps you from failing in the first place.....the 50/50 is just what your fail did, either you didnt make it any better, or you made it worse.

Didn't David say somewhere that he was planning a relic of some kind for weapon crafting or was that just my wishful thinking?

because really a relic to remove that 50/50 would be nice.

[Pi dArtois]

Or at least improve it!

What do Hellequin's failure chances look like? I'm trying to get a gauge on what I can hope for in some levels' time.

Well, his stats aren't maximum for the job, but he gets a 72% failure rate on quality 13 parts, trying to improve to 14. I have a system based on the law of averages that seems to work for me, but it still takes a couple of days just to get 1 quality 14 part.

There will be relics to further improve weapon crafting, yes.

[Mircea]

Not for guns, but weapon parts. Has anybody managed to find any sword blades/blunt heads over quality 10 on the ground yet? I never seem to manage and my 10 to 11 improvements come with a 62% fail chance right now so it's got me wondering if I'm just looking in the wrong place (catacombs) or if they just... Don't exist.

Yeah, there are up to Q13 blade parts lying around and I've collected a few.
