OK, I invented 3 of the lvl 750 pcs and 3 of the lvl 1000 pcs but I can't tell you the number of times I failed on invents for both components and set pieces. I ended my run with 3 failed Fiery Masks in a row with a few failed components to get there. I know some of that is just bad luck but I was using INV, Empower and Steamwork Cuirass to boost my Master Inventor to 100%. Success rate was stated as Very High but given the number of fails I seriously doubt that was possible. Either that or I have a big difference of opinion with the coders as to what Very High actually means. Even that wouldn't be so terrible if you didn't have to go chasing all those resources around so many different realms. Sorry if it seems like I'm ranting but my experience with this was not a quest for Christmas but rather a quest for April Fool's Day and I feel like the fool in a bad joke. I'm hearing similar stories from other people as well so perhaps the cows could look at making a few changes to this before it comes around again next year.

Screenshot everything!

I would agree with you about this event. The extraction rate on the resources was about 25% for me and the invent rate was around 50%. DEFINITELY less than the high and very high success invent rates the items are marked with. :(

Yup, I had pretty similar luck ... VERY HIGH and HIGH are, IMO, optimistic - I failed about 1/3 of all the invents I tried, including twice on the FIERY MASK. All I can say is, thank heavens for INVENTOR 2 saving my butt a few times :)

This is why we need a new Craftsmanship buff at level 1600 - Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the Master Crafter enhancement by +0.1% per point.

I didn't have much problems I made 30+ santork items had about 10-12 fails at one point I was making them faster than I could sell and I made one of each new set and had no fails.Also I was able to get all the items needed from going to just 2-3 different maps and only took a about 5-6k stam to hunt out everything.

A lot of the LE items lvl 1k+ take a ton of fsp to get perfect there were a few folks who spent a few hundred fsp trying to get perf I for one stopped trying the extra few stat points isn't worth the dots

fiery set has large range of stat, and that makes it very tough to get perfect. I spent 3fsp each and got excllent, happy enough with it. making 3set was pita though.

Or maybe let people figure things out for themselves, ingame. These guides & wiki's just take most of the fun out of the game IMO.

I used same but i got level 288 inv 1 running and had "extremely high chance of success" where i failed twice and many more when inventing upgraded sets. At least HCS could have said "above average chance of success" so i would know i would fail a lot.

Hi there Everyone!

Santork Claws and his Flamedeer have been defeated for another year. Santorks Grotto has also disappeared. This is not the end however. Santork will return next year during the festive season.

We hope everyone had fun!

I also used a distilled 250 pot for inv , i had a couple fails but nothing too extreme . I was happy with the event . It did seem that the lvl 1000 set could have better stats for the number of pieces involved . Also the lvl 150 santork dropped the best variety of crackers and other than the lvl 500 purple crackers i did all my farming there . The sets also retained good value throughout the event so id say the failure rate and number of resources was just right
