Anyone having any problems? I bought all skills except the retarded one for 150k lp and now I can't make even one damn bar. All of them turn back to cast iron. I know the distance is too small but hey, mb devs accidentally placed - instead of + and the chance gets smaller with each skill?
Btw, do these skills affect forge's slag/bloom chance? Kinda started getting 8 slag out of 9 bars all of a sudden.

Re: Wrought iron after patch.
Are those bars you've smelted since the patch? Or stockpile from before? I heard all cast from before patch isn't working so hot for wrought.

Re: Wrought iron after patch.
Some of them were from before but mostly after the patch. Skills indeed give more bars per ore but wrought seems the opposite lol.Sevenless wrote:Are those bars you've smelted since the patch? Or stockpile from before? I heard all cast from before patch isn't working so hot for wrought.
Prev Iron Ochre turning into bar chance was around 5-5.5%, now is more like 10-10.5% with Metal Working and Metallurgy.
I wonder, was it doubled or +5%? How will it affect Heavy Earth? 3% x 2 = 6% or 3% + 5% = 8%? 3% is just what it feels like, wasn't counting it unlike Ochre.

HE also feels roughly doubled, but I've not done enough smelts to really give you a solid number.LaserSaysPew wrote:Some of them were from before but mostly after the patch.

Re: Wrought iron after patch.
Lol, once again 8 slag and 1 cast iron from the bloom. I guess I'm done with wrought till I know whether it's a bug or a bad luck.
Also, what's up with that 150k lp cost? Does this skill make Iron Ochre yield 12% instead of 10%?
I actually expect it to make every ore into a bar, sometimes just randomly give you bars in your inventory and a free blowjob for that price.

Re: Wrought iron after patch.
my guess is the 150k will give you the ability to treat slag as cast bars when it comes to the furnace.

Really doubt anyone would save up that much LP at this phase of the world.LaserSaysPew wrote:I wonder if anyone already got it.Granger wrote:my guess is the 150k will give you the ability to treat slag as cast bars when it comes to the furnace.
Better factions might have it in 2-4 days though.

Re: Wrought iron after patch.
I am also having trouble.
1 wrought out of a batch of 15?
The slag to bloom ratio wasn't bad, but the amount of recycling I had to run through to be disappointed...

Enjoy my ass.
I'll stick to casts til I get confirmation that it's bugged.
