"GUARANTEED" Gain System : what a joke !!
This is the story....
Training up Cartography, skill at 96.0, using the "so-called" "Guaranteed Gain System to have secure 0.1 gains after the required time has lapsed.
Total skills of the characters are 296.0 since it is a new character, well below the 350.0 indicated by theTable at https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/technical/skill-gain-systems/ .
NOTE, Since the UO Wiki page does not load, I am also providing the Table link at https://www.uoguide.com/Guaranteed_Gain_System
Looking at the Table, total skills below 350.0 and skill being worked between 95.0 and 99.9 has a time lapse of 5.6 hours or, 5 hours and 36 minutes (0.6 of 60 minutes).
NOTE, at 96.0 Cartography skill I do am decoding Cache Treasure Maps which the Ball of Knowledge indicates as having OPTIMAL success rate.
Well, last Gain I had was at 7.00 time, I try again at 13.00 which is 6 hours later, well ABOVE the 5 hours and 36 minutes indicated by the Guaranteed Gain System Table to have to lapse before another "Guaranteed" Gain, and guess what ?
I went through 29 Cache Tattered Treasure Maps to decode (all I had) and got NO GAINS, zero, nothing, nada....
So much for this "GUARANTEED" Gain System....
@Kyronix, PLEASE, do you mind looking into this ?
In my book, GUARANTEED means just that : G-U-A-R-A-N-T-E-E-D.
Does not mean likely, possibly, probably, it just means GUARANTEED !!
The required time has lapsed, the gain HAS TO SHOW UP with no delays !!! This is what "Guaranteed" Gain System means, to my understanding.
Thanks.
