When i played live, there was a new rule which affected the gem quailty. It came in and suddenly anty quality gem could be used to OC crafted items. Before the patch, you had to use 99% quality to get 5.5 points of overcharge in a masterpiece item

Can anyone please tell me or link me something on how quality affects crafting on Uthgard? Do I need to get masterpiece items and 99% gems for 5.5 point OC?

Do many people craft on this server?

cheers

hoonius

On Uthgard crafters are used to use 99% or MP Gems.
If there are all Gems 99% you have a chance of boom at 1% with +5.5 imbue points.
You see the chance of scing the items if u put all gems in the window.

And on Mid there are some crafters available

99% quali item 5.5 imbue
2x 99% quali 2x 98% quali
or
3x 99% quali and 1x 98 quali gem
and everything will be fine

one mp and 3x99% and no chance to blow ;p

Thanks Guys

Now to find me some crafters :¬)

thanks for the replies

Don't forget the Quality of the item is important just as the level is.
So 5.5 points dont work on lvl 40 or lvl 51 item with 98% Quality.

I never had a Item that exploded with 1% chance ^^

whats your secret ? xD

Luck ^^

Did quite a lot of testing to understand the Uthgard system.

@ Aragorn, You are wrong. Your system works on live but not on Uthgard.

For spellcrafting an 99% item (lvl doesn't matter) you need one MP gem and 3 99% to make a 5,5 overcharge without any risk. With 4 99 gems, there is 1% risk. Yes, I have blown up parts with this 1% :p

For MP parts 4 99% gems is safe.

i never said that theres no risk but its a realy low chance i NEVER destroyed an item with a chance of 1-4% ^^

I wish I had your luck, Aragorn lol. I've had 99% items explode with all 99% gems several times. Twice in the same day even.

It may also help to know that, unlike the live servers, on Uthgard it's pretty much impossible to do 5.5 points of overcharge if your skill in Spellcrafting is under 1000.
