Crafting Char Lev Vs Item Lev

I have been doing a lot of crafting io was looking for some input on item lev vs char lev and how to make the best craft.....here what i ahve read so far on other sites...the item lev+clvl x .4 gives you a rought craft lev. but now does the lev of the jewel matter to the craft or whats on the items.. in some cases i have seen or what i thought to a direct link to the object properties like resistance and mf or ias but does anyone have any imput on this are there any master crafters out there

The jewel has no effect on it, I know that much.

It's all right here man.

If you're too lazy to sort thru it, here's what's important.

At ilvls 1-30, there's a 40% chance of 1 affix and a 20% chance each of 2, 3 or 4 affixes.
At ilvls 31-50, there's a 60% chance of 2 affixes and a 20% chance each of 3 or 4 affixes.
At ilvls 51-70, there's an 80% chance of 3 affixes and a 20% chance of 4 affixes.
At ilvls 71+, there's a 100% chance of 4 affixes.

The ilvl of a Crafted Item is equal to half the level of the crafting character (rounded down) plus half the ilvl of the input item (rounded down). Put another way: ilvl = int(.5 * clvl) + int(.5 * ilvl)

It's also worth noting that the ilvl, the quality and the properties of the jewel are completely irrelevant and don't affect the outcome at all.

Thanks voll i ahd read that and about 3 other theorys..The one thing i can say is that the last items i crafted it seemed the higher jewel did better maybe it just a cowinky dinky. but the higher lev jewel got my 2 to barb skill on a ammy with leech and life and the lower lev on got me crap

That's from the source. It's not a theory, that is taken directly from Battle.net.
