Hi guys, I'm just wondering what the trivial combine success rate is supposed to be please? Is it constant or variable depending on the recipe and/or post trivial skill level? I'm asking because after 111 leather padding combines at 32 tailoring skill, I got a success rate of 70.27%, and I also failed 5x in a row (evidence below, apologies for the low contrast).
Darchon made an interactive spreadsheet. https://www.takproject.net/forums/index.php?threads/tak-tradeskill-calculator.6216/#post-93883
At low skill levels specifically, being higher skill than the trivial of the combine does not grant you maximum success chance. You have to skill up a ways beyond the trivial to reach that. This flips at the higher end. A person with maximum skill of 252 modified, can do combines up to 278 trivial and retain 95% success rate. In your case, 32 skill for 31 trivial combine the success rate is 67%. So with your 70% you beat the average. If you wanted to reach maximum success rate of 95%, you need a skill of 60, nearly double the trivial level.
