Maybe its just me but ....

Maybe its just me but has anyone else seen the super rare event favor of inovation? The one that is supposed to give a rare plus give you an instant pristine item is succesfully countered. Was talking about it on the crafting channel and it seems several other people havn't seen this event in what maybe a year. Is the chance for it just that small that most people may only see it once or twice in their crafting time or was something tweaked with all the crafting changes that have occured over time?

I've gotten it on 3 different characters since February, so it's still out there.  It's just really, really rare.

My husband and I both had this event happen to us this past weekend while on a crafting marathon.  We thought it was funny that we both got it on the same day.

I think it's rarer than the rarest drop from the rarest spawn... but some people get that multiple times and call it mundane, too.The RNG is Bristlebane's way of pranking us no matter where we are.

I have never seen it. 4 different crafters, 2 are 80 and two are 70+. Have seen the insight one fairly often.

<p>My Carpenter recieved (and promptly botched) a Favor of Innovation event several days ago (while working on a Rush Order, iirc). Also, my Jeweler (or my Sage - I don't recall which) successfully countered a Favor of Innovation event a month or two ago. They're in the machine <i>some</i>where - they're just, well, <b>rare</b>.</p>

I've never actually seen myself counter a Favor of Innovation, because I never see the words when I'm doing crafting and just the picture, so I've realized after the fact when I had a strange rare in my inventory after crafting that I had gotten a FoI.

I think I have gotten this maybe three times in four years.  I do recall once botching it because I was so surprised by it, LOL.

The first combine I did in May after returning from a long absence had one.  Of course, I missed it /sigh.
