Re: Grandmaster Assasins Vial - IMPOSSIBLE!
Took me 9 times. however, before the ninth i put 1 point into poison master 1 ( 3 aas 1-2 days exp) and made it first go after that, also havent failed a poison combine since so my advise to all is to put apoint into this first, if id dont it i would have saved myself 50k /cry

Its mainly luck. I made mine one firts try, with 252 effektive skill (240+geerlok).
Chances are 50/50, and i think poison mastery will add 10 percentage points and make it 60/40.

Wow, I guess I must be lucky. I got 250 skill, geerlok then got KEI and all of my shaman's wis gear and got it on the first try. Good luck all, it is well worth it.
KEI
KEI is key, I found the increase in int/wis greatly improves my chances of success. I get 50% chance of success on Mind Melts with KEI, but only 30% without. So if a 250 skill yields 50/50, I bet thats with a descent int or wis. I pumped mine up to 160 before my attempt (gear and buffs) and was successfull on first try.
Re: KEI
The only thing a high int / wis (or some other stat; Dex for Make Poison) affects is how often you get skill increases.
The only thing that affects how often you succeed with making things is your skill level. If it is 252 with mod items, you have done all you can to ensure success.
Re: KEI
Correct KEI does nothing to help, but if I failed 4 times, you becha I'm raid buffed to the gills with max status in every column including MR/CR/FR.
Oh and I failed first time while FIRING the damn Artisan Seal!!!

Re: KEI
Must share this with you, hopefully to make you feel better.
I spent LOTS of time raising my poison making, but for some reason it seemed stuck on 247. I have poison mastery 1, and had FOS on me. So before going to bed, I decided to go buy an artisan vial for heck of it. Put it in my mortar and pestle along with sealed vial and was about ready to log and by sheer mistake I pressed combine. Was about to curse, but then saw a GM vial on the cursor. My guild heard a lot of the curses after that (happy ones). So to sum it up, c3 was not on me, nor any wis gear. I had high skill, apothecary with poison mod, poison mastery1, and FOS. Got it on first try so you can too.

Re: KEI
C3 helps a lot, so does standing on your haed while clicking th combine. You really should try it
Once you have 252 modifies skill you are at around 50% success. Im 2 for 2 on my GM items

Re: KEI
I got mine on the third try. First try was 250 skill, +2% modifier and buffs. Second try was that and the make poison aa. I tried once more after that fail and got it!
I like the sitting down by some running water fingers and toes crossed method!
Re: KEI
Fourth time was the charm for me. 250 + 5% Geerlok with 280 Str/Dex and 145ish wis/int
/note to rogues still trying:
If you are using the summoned mortar & pestle, remove the GMAV before you destroy it to make room for your summoned bag \c; GM's can be very kind in returning it to you, but it takes 'em a while
