Today I just realized that I hate crafting in Ryzom. It's too frustrating. When a guildie asks for a new set of such-and-such, I typically leave it for someone else in my guild to do, unless it's low level, because I don't want to deal with this:
As you can see, I applied scrolls before crafting because I was making my own set of jewelry that included some hard-to-obtain ingredients and wanted to minimize degrades. Naturally, my first craft was a degrade. It's like the game slapping me in the face and saying 'not today satan.' I know this is only one example and you'd likely want a thousand mixes to provide a good sample space for results. I simply don't have time for that.For Spirit of the Bark we obtain Atys Specialization.
In line with that little perk, I propose that Spirit of Creation obtain a small bump of +5% at master level - thusly from 85% -> 90%. Even when applying a +60 scroll, it will land at 96%. Still lower than 100%, which I know you would never ever allow in this game.
Pros: People may choose to craft more often if their chances were slightly improved with this small perk. It may also give people an incentive to obtain the title and achievement.
Of all the complaints I hear in this game, the one I hear most is degrades during crafting.
