How many clicks you do

[Alfadur]

Hello all.

I'm giving my first steps crafting tools and weapons.
And my question is very simple:

Imagine you have a specific blueprint with maxed COS.
If someone asks you to craft that item, how many clicks you do?

I ask this because it happened to me to click 6 times and no item returned.
yet another 6 times and got 6 items.
So I'm starting to feel that I should target not to craft one item,
but an amount of clicks in order to have an average return, selling the request item and stocking the rest.

PS: Sorry for my bad english, if this not understandable I might try put other words.

I always do a certain amount of clicks, ie 1k clicks although depends a bit on what i'm crafting. But i always try to craft for atleast one hour due to how loot works in eu.

Although, if you know how the system works and if you can know when it's good to craft you can craft a lot smaller batches.

When skilling with equipments I do about 1K click runs or less depens what I craft and do I have ores / enmatter or other stuff to do that.

Attachments, click max 20 per run.
Weapons click max 50 per run
Tools just for skill if i have stuff to craft.

Textures, 250-1.000 click depens amount of stuff that i can use.

Amazingly the poll results are pretty even, leading me to no conclusion

Cheers you two for the answers, like Legion said I've heard that crafting for a full hour is the best choice. Which means that crafting upon request is a no no.

Yet would like to know more opinions.

i do specific crafting on request, and i have found that in most cases it is a success on the first click. Just make sure you have had other stuff in between each 3 click runs, preferably at a loss.

But yeah, i usually do 3 clicks. Someone asked me to make a set of explorer for them.

Arms: 1st click success
Feet: 1st click success
Face: 1st click success
Thighs: 1st click success
Shins: 1st click success
so i have loads of stuff left over
Harness:.....10 fails in a row

coincidentally, after that i made another set of armor and i had exactly the same result on a different armor (but still lvII)

I usually do 3 clicks for maxed bps and more for not maxed, as success rate is 40% it in theory should have a success then, but not guarenteed

Indeed, max success rate is around 40% so the more clicks the more it will "even" out to that 40%
