Production will always fail at the step involving the material you have the lowest quantity of.

(I.e. I make arrows and have less thread than boards, then it is most likely that I will fail (and waste) thread rather than boards).

That's not superstition, that's murphys law.

Didn't read that line, but still, I'd rather find it strange if it were the ather way around.

I find it strange that it isn't 50:50 but perhaps you got the thought in your mind "damn I have to do this good I dont have much of these" so you fail because you're stressed more.

Thing is... if a human has such thoughts, sure it might stress him, but how... and why does it work in Illarion aswell... (asumed the script only checks the availability of the required amount of materials and not their total too... or... do they?) O.o

I'm pretty sure in the script the chances are distributed evenly. But murphys law supersedes mathematics.

when fighting with proccing weapons, shift click the sword to let off the proc. for better efficiency, shift click sword, then enemy. for life leech proc, shift click weapon, then self.

You're going to remember the events which confirm expectations, and not those which deny them. The 'you' involved is irrespective of the fact that the event 'happens' to your PC.

For the rare chance that you skill-up with the bluestones so you waste less diamonds
