I found one in my inventory, and it gives a 100% chance of Masterwork. Problem is, I can't remember where I got it from. Anyone know?

I got mine near the end of Here Lies the Abyss.

If you help the fade spirits while you're in the fade during the quest they'll give you the Essence of Perfection.

Thank you, that must've been it.

I wasted mine on making Sera ( whose Cockney accent I barely understand) a masterwork bow. Had I known, I would have made better armor for my mage.

Too bad master-crafting is so bad. 

For example. A dual wield dagger with 10% chance to hidden strike is much better than +10% damage.
A mage only has TWO master-craft slots, waste one of them for 10% stat bonus?

I cant think of a single scenario where master-craft is superior to masterwork material instead like +3 guard on hit etc.

.. for rogues master crafting is better. 10% boost o your rntire weapon stats, do remember all your abilities work of your weapon damage. So full 10% boost to it ins invaluable.

I would disagree with this. The +10% damage is constant where the hidden strike will only happen 10% of the time and when it does happen there's no guarantee that the enemy your fighting isn't incredibly weak already. (Thus wasting the hidden strike and theoretically having to wait 9 more times before getting another). Where as +10% to stats is constant, which I would argue will stack up to overall more damage over time.

And does the +10% only apply to damage? It says +10% to stats so I was thinking it was an overall boost to all stats. Which is IMO far better than a 10% chance to cast any ability.

I am finding it hard to beat stacking +3 to guard on hit though. That's an awesome ability.

I agree with Someonestolemyname.  the 10% to stats I find its pretty pathetic compared to some of the abilities. Perhaps on a dual wield rogue, since they can have 3 masterwork, one spot might be ok, but the 10% chance for that or others like chain lightning for groups is immensely OP.  Their quick strikes makes the opportunity to proc happen  so often.   I mean at 10% extra damage, it would take 40 hits to do the same amount of damage as a proc from hidden blades.   And within 40 hits, chances are youll proc about 4 times.

Hold on a tic. You barely understand The Ever So Posh Sera's Utterly Brilliant Cockney Accent? That's right barmy innit? Not only do I understand it easily I absofreakinglutely am enthralled by it. Charmed down to me knickers I am.

I am an Aussie with an extremely thick bushman accent.. think croc dundee.. and I could understand her just fine.. cockney accent and all. Though I have seen a lot of yanks hate her for it because it is not the accent they typically associate brits with even though it is probably one of the most common accents in london.. let alone england.

[Gaz83]

The terminology may be cockney, but the accent sure as hell isn't.  Not even remotely. 

 

To me, it sounds East Midlands-ish. Nottingham, perhaps. 

 

Any idea who the voice actress is, and where she hails from?

so is there any way of getting another, a console command or something? I used mine before I learned about the inventory trick

Effectively, it's a difference between 10% of your dps and 10% of damage dealt by a hidden blades attack. Given the hidden blades damage is quite strong, I'd guesstimate that's in favour of the proc, overall.

'potentially wasting damage' and such is muddling the waters without any real need for it, imo. Similarly you don't control when your attack crits on a target who is already low enough on health, making that extra damage 'wasted' as well.

Not far off, then. Her accent isn't overly thick though, which explains confusion.

I don't think so.
Items like this is something Bioware don't throw at you in bunddles. It's one of a kind. Remember how the rest of the game is all about 1% here, and 1% there - maybe, perhaps, could be...

No, but I think I have found out how you can make the mastercraft work in a way.

The chance for successfully gain the 10% extra to stats is higher if you use different materials in your slot.
Always using dragon tooth or hardwood will not give you the 40% as they indicate. I've tried to make a bow and armor countless times with no effect. Realoading a save unendless will probably just reset your mastercraft chances to your last point. I think the mastercraft isn't quite random as it indicates. I think it follows a certain ready coded plan. Like success on the first, the fourth, then at number 13 and 19 etc. I don't think there is a calculator running in the background like a wheel of fortune. You have to hit the extact point that matches this ready coded plan.

The first time you use a certain crafting element will almost always grant you succes for mastercraft. That's how it has been for me at least.
If I use all my dragon tooth only the first is a success. So, I use tems with lower chance as 10% chance. And it seems to work out. I have the idea that by using the lower chance elements I hit the hot spots in the ready coded plan.

I gotta say this:

as dual dagger rogue having one perfectly masterworked at 500 damage is <333

now if you want the other to max at 466~ with a  masterwork ability cool

but running 500/500 33+ dex and 33+ cun daggers is so fun. 

 

 

you spike so hard as an assassin 

 

it's beautiful carnage

 

leave hidden blade masterworks to mages with energy barrage [12 chances/120% chance to proc]

 

also if you do that math the on hit 1% health is better than the 5 guard if your hp is greater than 500 as a rogue

 

at 500 health your max guard is 125

with the healing you get 5 hp 

[Chugster]

so, are there any other 10% stat boost masterwork items, with 50% or 60% chances? I got the 10% boost on a T3 battlemage robe (using dragon scales, almost 300 armor)  right before  i got the Keeper Robe schematic and i cant seem to get the boost on the Keeper Robe with the Dragon Teeth .

 

What can i do to ensure i get the boost on the keeper robes to give them the same armor as the battlemage robe...270 armor is ok but it bugs me that the uglier robe has better armor

No, I haven't seen any above 40% (with the exception of Essence of perfection).
You have 10, 20, 30 and 40%.

If you want a Keeper Robe with 10% higher stats I suggest you try this:

Farm a lot of hardwood from the Still Ruins. They have 40% chance. You get 3 each time you open the chest.
Now go to your weapon forge. Chose some mastercraft items you don't want to use anyway. The cheapest in your schematic list. Use crafting materials you have loads of and craft along. Make a new savegame just in case.
When you have crafted a couple of items with hardwood in the mastercraft slot save you game and go for the real thing (the Keeper Robe). If it doesn't work then you craft another cheap item and try the Keeper Robe once again. It will be a success sooner or later.

Yeah, I know, it's boring visiting The Still Ruins all the time, but....
