Some crafted items have a quality level, which affects their stats and is determined by the crafter's relevant skill.
When an item requiring a quality is finished, the quality is randomly determined using a standard distribution with a standard deviation of 1.25 quality levels and a mean of approximately one quality level per three skill levels. (Note that while every skill level typically increases the mean by one-third of a quality level, the jumps from levels 16 to 17 and 19 to 20 are twice as large as all others.) Template:Clr
The following table shows the probabilities per skill level. You can read the blocks in each row as the answer to the question "if I make ten items at that skill level, what assortment of quality levels will I typically get?"
