Description

I was spellcrafting on Albion a lvl 51 100% small shield. This allows me to max overcharge at 37.5 out of 32 points. While making the gems I got lucky with my spellcrafting and made 2 100% gems and 2 99% gems. This would normally result in a 0% chance to blow up and over 40% chance to succeed on the spellcrafting. I accidentally imbued 3 of the gems for 21 out of 32 points. I still had one 100% gem left and when I attempted to spellcraft the item it verified that the item was a 37 out of 32 points, but it said I only had a 17% chance to succeed in my imbue and that I had a 36% chance to blow up. Old school daoc I could apply the 4 gems at any time and as long as the quality was correct the same formula would result.

Reproduction Steps

1. Have a lgm albion spell crafter
2. Have a 100% item to be spellcrafted. and 4 gems of at least 99% quality that make for a 5 point overcharge. this should result in 0% chance to blow up.
3. Only imbue 3 of the gems, then attempt to imbue the 4th and notice your chance to succeed has gone down and your chance to blow up has gone high.

Intended Behavior

Allow the spellcrafted items to remember gem quality so that items can be imbued to full overcharge with the same risk as long as a gem slot is still open.

Evidence

It shouldn't matter when the gems are imbued, as long as the quality is there and the spellcrafting slot is open I should retain the same chances at success.
