Critical Fail Combines are Amazing

[Jimjam]

Maybe they wanted to let people suffer, maybe the guy who made the quest either didn't care or didn't remember about the no fail flag (or perhaps the flag wasn't flaggable for whatever reason). Certainly an interesting point upon which to muse.

I failed the shawl 6th shawl 6 times between 163-168 tailoring. There's like a sub 1% probability of this happening. I did most of it during double drop rate christmas week so it wasn't too bad but still time consuming with how rare the siren hair and wolf whiskers are. I still need a swordfish tooth to finish 7th but I tried SG at 58 and it just wasn't gonna work.

I'm still mad AF at the whole tailoring thing, from 158 you basically have to craft 262 othmir fur caps or 335 wyvern masks unless you're a few select races... and you only have 5% chance to successfully combine until you're 200+. And most of the gear made is garbage anyway or there are much cheaper alternatives out there. I guess if you're one of the first 250 tailors early velious it may be worth it but at this point not so much.

If I'm ever guilded I'd still do spirit of grazicor for the ring because I apparently like suffering.
