Grinding, am I just unlucky or what?

[Zalinian]

Got 3 luck today and decided to grind some weps. Using a A+6 Grinder went to grind a 9* wep, and the stupid NPC broke it on 2/10 Grind.......

still a "very high" synth Ive gotten several a ranks to 10/10 and usually only use a+10 on the last 3 or 4 grinds

[Zalinian]

i can't get anything past 3 or 4 grind, even with 3 luck and high grinders..... it says chances of success are very high, but its like they very low.

haha, I know the feeling, sometimes I just cant seem to grind ANYTHING, I had a weapon break on the second grind four times in a row before. Sometimes random just gets the better of luck

[Zalinian]

been breaking everything so far, can't get anything past 3 or 4......... "very high chance of success" what is sega's definition of very high? To me very high chance means like 90-95%+

[HFlowen]

I used to have a chart, probably bookmarked on another computer.

Anyway, very high ranges from like 70 to 90 percent. Also, better grinders >>>>>> photon luck.

[Zalinian]

Yea I think I'm done breaking things tonight. Gonna wait till i get tons of 8-10 grinders then do it again.

Ah yes, the Holy Light. "May the Holy Light Guide You". I've heard that many times from the woman at the counter at GUARDIANS Colony 5th Floor.

Your sign is too big >.<

[ShuttleXpC]

No, luck has nothing to do with. The people who programmed this game suck at math, plain and simple. I've grinded a TON of A rank weapons, all with lvl 3 luck and the appropriate leveled grinders (aka Very high on every possible synth to get to +5). One day I grinded exactly 32 A rank weapons, ranging from guns to wands for my various jobs. I had 196 or so grinds succeed (counting the ones after fails that broke my weapons down) and I had 63 fails (some were failing on +2 grinds lol). Tell me how that is even possible when every single one of the synths was very high which the success range is in the 75-89% range.

I can explain it in a few words. Learn to add SEGA.

[EMPYREAN]

well its a part of the game.some times it breaks after the 2nd uppgrade, other times att the 9th(thats probably the worst) its all pure luck.

[ShuttleXpC]

There is no such thing as luck in a game involving real life numbers. Its a based %, SEGA cant just create a luck generator >.>;

Either something is screwy with their grind success rates, or they need to learn to add. Either way something is broken with the grind system.

BTW, I usually only grind to +5 anyways. The additional attack/PP from most weapons upgrades totally negates the fact how much money and good weapons you will waste getting there. +5 is a nice number =p. Especially considering a 50% weapon is hard to come by.

[Silver_Wyrm]

Its called random. seriously. However I am interested in exact % of Very High and High, because I failt hem often enough its annoying, very high should be 90%+ ( I dont care if they change it so we see "high" more often to reflect that) but seeing what your real chances are would be nice

[SkyCrusader]

I broke my Gudda Skeala first grind with a s+7 http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[pikachief]

my friend with 3* luck broke his tuma going fromm 1-2!

its like around 99.87 or something success rate too and its the second time he's done it XD

[DragonStorm]

Geez stupid mouse. lol anyways the rates are: Read closely

Very High=90%
High=70%
fifty/fifty=50%
low=30%
very low=10%

There ya have it.
