Tin Man, this is a pretty common cycle for me. I grind and farm like crazy during events and then I have to step away for a bit. It’s all I can manage to complete daily quests. I’ll hop back in when the next event starts. For now? I’m having a blast playing Witcher 3 on Xbox. No grinding. Just open world adventures. ; )

The RNG on gear-crafting is a problem.

Ignorancy is very adecvat to what I post.
World is HUGE. There is many breeds with their culture and history. Many individuals that you like on both "sides". Planty of politics, strategy, back sides story's, magic that have "layers" Plurality and richnes and richnes in plurality haha. Nad still book after book is like puzzles. You want to see the hole picture. Steven Erikson is writing this saga since 99 if om not wrong. Sometimes comemdy (not to often), bravery, stupidnes, shallow, ddamatic, heroic, victory, death, life, sadness its purely epic journey!
Im in love with this world, story, characters.
Try to read first one. If you prefer lack of sleep to the book I want blame you

Totally feel so many peoples pain, 1000's upon 1000's of resources wasted along with 100mil+ gold in the pursuit of lv77 anything. Apparently creating a new hero yields a higher chance of higher levels. Not sure if there is any proof of this though.

I think after Adrian said that MF/DP put their thumb on the RNG's scale (the gambler's fallacy), I became a lot more cautious of dumping large amounts all at once. If I didn't get something decent in the first 10 rolls, I'd quit for a while. I definitely think the fix is in on crafting. Clearly MF/DP is trying to suck as much out of you as they think they can get, so there may be times when the RNG is kinder than others. Wait for those times IMO.Last edited by TerryDarc; 01-13-2020, 10:40 PM.FEYI FAJU BESE 4881

True, the three are green, blue and purple, but I think the odds are the same, just a lower cost. She's 888% extra gold unboosted.

Other than the admitted "gambler's fallacy" which should have been on your side except for my main point, ie. the RNG goes south every now and then. I'm advising figuring out when that is and just giving it a rest then. Try later.FEYI FAJU BESE 4881

Pretty sure there is a single RNG when you roll the dice for a green common cape or a Legendary 77 IM. Just much more expensive for the latter. Or are the stats on all the IM 77 capes you get inferior so you discard them?

I do not even try pursuing higher level gear outside of an event like ANB where I have to craft to just play.
After all these events and all this crafting? I have equipied one level 76 Integralas Mantle and one level 76 Ion Gun with both being Legendary. After those two pieces? Even the level 75 items that I have equipped are few and far between.
I am really not up to grinding for hundreds of hours to try crafting more to pursue gear that will be obsolete the next season.
My success with what I have is within the acceptable range and just live with what I have.
I am just back to grinding gold from The Gauntlet while I go through my work day.

Guess what? I do not have a single Legendary level 77 set or unique piece on any of the heroes. I just recently started getting some level 75s and a few level 76s. I was shocked this last ANB when I crafted a Epic level 77 Blackguard's Resolve that was perfect on several attributes.

Also, I've got blue/green ELR Mages for gold grubbing (who were no longer competitive) - these have been converted to blue/green gold-grubbers with several 77's, and as I mentioned to Anjaeka , the odds should be the same for getting bumped up in level from 71->77 for a green piece than for a Legendary, right? I think maybe I've crafted 20-30 greens or blues to get a 77 and a lot less than that for a Legendary b/c they are so expensive in terms of both gold and resources. I just don't have either to spend with a cranky RNG.
The 3 gold-grubbers coincidentally each have 3 77's equips. None has a piece < 74. Here's one...
If you craft 3 or 4 in a row whatever's and you don't get one or more bumps up, it's time to hang it up for the night.FEYI FAJU BESE 4881
