Mod Calibration disappointing

80% bad rolls 20% very good ones for me

So far mod calibration has been a total waste of time. I know RNG is a big factor, but in almost every case I’ve attempted to make a mod “better” the system generates a result that is worse than the previous occasion. I’m just wondering if this is the experience others or having or if I’ve just had extremely bad luck so far.

I find this hard to believe, unless you've only done a few and gotten unlucky.

I've had a few get worse stats, most have been better even if not what I was looking for.

I feel like I'm landing speed much more then 25% of the time so I'm happy. I also have nothing to back this statement up so I'll probably be complaining on the forum when I get 3 defense rolls in a row.

I actually saw this button today and thought .............'Oh yeah, I'd totally forgotten about it. I wonder if anybody is using it?' Low and behold here's a topic!!! I tried a few times when it first came out and I thought it was a wash out. Maybe I should be using it then,looking at this thread!

You will when you’ll unlock Jabba and get free components from Smuggler’s run 2

You are likely discussing the most expensive gamble in the game. There is nothing that will have more confirmation bias than this. Imagine all the screams about "working as intended" if omicrons had only a 25% chance to put it on the character you wanted, 75 % on other toons you didn't pick; even worse there could be by-lines in the kit that may not be present sometimes.

People would be freaking out. That's parallel to calibration in the game.

Mod calibration is free and unnecessary at this point. Use it and enjoy the times it helps and don’t care about the times it doesn’t. Mods you are likely calibrating are beyond good enough in pve modes and unlikely to make a bit of difference in pvp because of datacrons.

Your parallel is debatable: mods always had rng, gear never had rng.

Free, yes.

Unnecessary, I guess if you don't care about your mods.

I stand by statement. Mods are almost pointless in the dc era in pvp. Do I still work them? of course I do. It’ll change when dodge goes away but right now dodge % is far more determinative than mods.
