A short Amp craft question...

A while I ago, I did what you mention, try to gather as many mats as possible to test for combinations. The net result is that your packers/GH/room will become a mess with things like "fine kirosta mandible", making things harder e.g. if you want to craft something from the packers. I'd suggest get an alt, buy him a guild hall and spend your recipee test sessions there

What happened to the Phadrea's Tears craft hall? Anyone remember that? I got a ton of mats for it but never heard anything back from anyone?

Oh, it already is! my apartment is about 70% full, and contains only amp crafting mats, of various shapes sizes and descriptions - however I know that there are still many things I miss.

I use the guildhouse for everything else - there's more space there and it means that the only other person in my mini-guild can grab anything she needs.

hmm, after playing around a little I managed 86/86 90/86 for only excellent and below materials (OE speed/power heal speed/power respectively).
These are pre-craft stats by the way - true stats would be higher.

This was only a very short play around, but it's something.

Arc: I didn't quite have enough excellent yelk shrooms on hand to try your excellent recipie - what pre-craft stats do you end up with using yours?

EDIT: fixed stats, I had copied values from the wrong screen shot - idiot!

It was maximized for heal, stats were in precraft window

63/63 Ele
63/45 OA
63/63 DA
96/96 Heal

Should be easy enough to figure out with 'elemental power' or 'healing power' stats. What I'd really like to know is if stats like 'speed' or 'adversary parry modifier' have a hidden fractional component. (I've seen some people claim it does ofcourse, but none convincingly enough. )

I think it's pretty safe to say the dodge/parry modifiers on armor have no hidden fractional component, or one would notice the add-up when wearing 5 pieces. So if the power stats on amps do have it, then we know some stats do and some stats don't. So which do and which don't?

Perhaps stats that affect a value on a Homins skill sheet have no fractional value, but stats that are only on the weapon and used only for the combat calculations do have fractional values?
It would seem a logical theory to me, but I have currently no real evidence to back it up.

Just a shameless bump. So anyone with 100/100 in ele and heal yet?

your recipe boosted is the best ele/heal amps so far , 115/116 ele and 116/116 heal

[mirrorgate]

Not 100/100 for me yet yet but here's my closest so far:

Ele 99/99
OA 82/82
Heal 99/99
DA 95/82

They were also made to have a decent Sap Load too (965) so if I sacrifice the Sap Load I might be able to do better. I'll give it a go.
