New 50% crafting hammer bug

[Geomaticus]

With the new 50% crafting hammer, and maxing out the multiplier to 8x, the crafting chances for a special item is over 100%, as shown in image below. No crafting pact was used. The math would be worse had it been on.
Perhaps the math should be corrected since the chance should not go over 100%.

HEhe, thats ok, you cant accumulate percentages, you should now that

That's not quite the way to stack percentages...

If I understand correctly, it works like this. The game throws a 1000-sided dice (since there are fraction percentages as well). If it comes less than 145 you get an Epic. If not, the game rolls again. If this roll comes less than 290, it's a legendary. If not, the game rolls a third time. This time if it comes less than 580 it's a rare. If not, it's a normal.

That is exactly how it works or so was explained to me a long time ago by knowledgeable authority That's why I dont see a problem with what is the sum of those percentages, cause it doesnt show the TOTAL chance to get a special item

Cool, thanks for clearing that up!
