HW Plot Part: Sophie's lab (Split #6)

[Daguiar]

Oh help help please help! *waves white flag*

I've gotten to the round with the 23g Spectral Essence and the 10g Anti-Gravitic Goo, and I've got those made. But I can't figure out how to make my third composite, which looks like this:

Quantity: 12 grams
Relevant property: Power
Target value: +66 +/- 2
Relevant property: Divination
Target value: +104 +/- 2

or my daughter's third composite, which looks very similar:

Quantity: 12 grams
Relevant property: Power
Target value: +65 +/- 2
Relevant property: Divination
Target value: +102 +/- 2

(yes, I'm helping her with the math -- she's 9!!)

I can't find a distribution like ours on any of the petpages that I've seen linked, and I can't figure out the way to figure this out... Is there an algorithm? Some structured way to solve it? I've been banging my head against it long enough that I'm cranky and snappish, and I'm two splits back trying to read posts on this thread, so forgive me if I'm asking something that everyone already knows. Please help!!

I hate this so much. -_- I've got a combination somewhat similar to beanmommy's so I was happy when she brought it up, EXCEPT for one problem: my combination is only SIMILAR, not exact.

Composite #3:

Quantity: 12 grams
Relevant property: Divination
Target value: +69 +/- 2
Relevant property: Power
Target value: +104 +/- 2

I don't understand the whole process one bit so even though I tried the process in a different way (if you could call it different), I totally didn't understand how it went. Can someone help me out? Please?

Follow this steps

1. Take your smallest number and multiply by 4.
2. Using 3 grams of wool, raise the stats you need to the above number.
3. Take your highest number and multiply by 4.
4. Subtract your number you got in 1. from your number in 3.
5. Using 3 grams of Jurpleberries, raise the stat of your highest number to the number you got in 4.
6. Add 3 grams of two other substances to which you have done nothing to.

EDIT: If you still need help just PM and I will help ya

If you're still stuck, I think this may help.
3g Babaa Wool, crush until Divination is +276.
3g Crushed Jurpleberries, dry until Power is +140.
3g some other random thing
3g some other random thing

If you miss the stat, start again or use more (instead of 3g, use 10g) so it will be slower. After that, split it.
*Hope* that helps.

I've got a question about the 4th mixture... For the Spectral Essence, do we do the exact same as we did for the 3rd mixture? or do we have to manipulate the numbers to get whatever value it requests... Is it still a spectral essence if I don't max out the components?

[ggagahc]

Thank you, guys! ^_^ Daguiar put it very nice and simple so I sort of understand it. Thanks, too, jirachiex201, for helping me simplify all that. ^_^ You guys are awesome. Now to see if I can actually get it...

[jirachiex201]

23g SPECTRAL ESSENCE:
20g Bloodfern Loam: soaked and crushed (both to max)
1g Bloodfern Loam: soaked and crushed (both to max), then dessicated until Conjuring=274
2g Leafy Slorgblossom: soaked, crushed, desiccated (all to max)

This worked for me, however trying the normal way with 7g, 7g, and 7g two times did not work. The stats were right, too though.

The Curse of the Platinum Mist!!! WHY WE CAN`T FIND IIIIIIIT!!! Seems like it`s going to take a long long looooong time to appear...

[laurenb]

I wonder how points are going to be scored for this part...

[ggagahc]

Yay! It worked! Now I've got Platinum Mist to worry about. Joy.

Now that I've seen that I feel so stupid for not having thought of it. And I was a math major in college, too.

[jirachiex201]

Here's to stop boredom for a few seconds while waiting for ingredients to max:
lol, my sister had a funny thought:
How can you crush "Crushed Jurpleberries" if it is already crushed?

[Crimson13x]

I wonder how points are going to be scored for this part...

Hopefully enough to compensate for the sanity I have lost and the migraine I have gained. LOL

[enchantress159]

any news on platium mist?

[missnk]

Yay! Finally finshed everything except for that darned Psionic Singularity. GrrrR. *goes off to experiment* Hmph

[Officer 1BDI]

Aww, I was hoping someone would have found Platinum Mist by the time I got back from dinner. Well, at least one of them was found.

[laurenb]

if you're experimenting, don't bother with 1 g combination of any three ingredients with Burn and Crush for all of them. They don't work.
