That's does sound odd, but it has happened to me also. Not much, and I didn't pay much notice to the event. One question? Did you lose any of the materials on failure? Just wondering...
I have had it happen on creating soulforges and you do lose ingredients -- not the relic fragment though. I've had it happen at least 2-3 times, and wondered how and why.
Yes, I did othewise I guess I wouldn't have even bothered to mention it.
I didn't use that button. I'm always making a certain number, and the number changes so I use that every time.
At least one of my failures was not using the make last button. I used the "make now" button.

Not true!
You DO loose relic fragments at times if failing even at 100%!
Yep, same here - my experience so far:
- 41 Soulforges created
- 22 unsuccessful attempts which made me losing 9 Relics and about half of the wood / ingots.
(my displayed success chance is 93.7%)
I know, in a mathematical view, this is not very convincing due to the few attempts made; nevertheless, with these numbers above, I suspect the success chance simply remains @ 50% ignoring the bonus of any equipped talisman.
Well actually, what I said was true. I was only saying that I had not lost a relic fragment in the two fails.
The only time I ever saw that happen was when you try to cast twice because of recall lag.
It's just so demoralizing when you fail something that says 100%. I can't explain it.Yep, same here - my experience so far:

Just because your skill is at 100% does not mean you will succeed 100% of the time. Look at the menu and see what your chances of exceptional are. I am a legendary bard and I fail on certain higher level monsters. It's part of the game. Sorry.
41 successful + 22 Unsuccessful = 63Yep, same here - my experience so far:

41/63 = 65% success rate. Not nearly 93.7 but also not 50/50.
63 trials is a fairly good number to get within +-5-10%. What is your chance without your tally?
Odd, given that they were discussing this pre-release, and had mentioned they would look into ways to not make the imbuing failure process so painful. I'm going to guess they decided that it could continue to be painful. :/- 22 unsuccessful attempts which made me losing 9 Relics and about half of the wood / ingots.
Do you think this is possible with other spells? I'm fairly certain I fizzled a pain spike on a 100 necro yesterday...
