    My math agrees with Ahmet's (aside from maybe not rounding very consistently?).

    I don't know anything specific about the other crit paragon, or how the two would interact.
  • AntoniusAntonius
    @Makarios @Cellorran Any chance we could get some specifics on the crucious (crit gambling) paragon? Is it an equal 50/50 chance to upgrade or fail on every single crit?

    Dps increases by level for all pendants w/ and w/o lucky trait (@Sena plx confirm :>):


    Huh. Neat.
  • CooperCooper
    What about level 99, lucky trait (not elixir), human bonus, and level 1/2/3 pendant?

  • AhmetAhmet Wherever I wanna be
    That's lucky trait, not elixir. My bad.
    Huh. Neat.
  • AhmetAhmet Wherever I wanna be
    For 99 looks like: 
    12.09% (human + lucky) 
    12.00%  (human + lucky + lvl1) 
    11.85% (human + lucky + lvl2) 
    11.63% (human + lucky + lvl3)
    Huh. Neat.

    And do we -really- get a 64x damage crit? Cause that's beautiful. If so, what's it called?
    Huh. Neat.

    Assuming Lucky trait is 1%:

    Looks the same to me.

    If anyone wants to calculate the paragon's DPS bonus for an arbitrary crit rate, the formula is (simplified): (2c+2c^2+4c^3+8c^4-16c^5)/(5+5c+10c^2+20c^3+40c^4+80c^5), with c being your crit chance.

    So with the UW battlefields, it looks like the explorer rankings took a pretty massive hit. I dropped two ranks, some of the people at the top dropped what looks like several, and there aren't any Achaean Ranger ranked people at all now.

    Will these areas still be there for exploration after the event is over, or will they be removed?

    - (Eleusian Ranger Techs): Savira says, "Most of the hard stuff seem to have this built in code like: If adventurer_hitting_me = "Sarathai" then send("terminate and selfdestruct")."
    - Makarios says, "Serve well and perish."
    - Xaden says, "Xaden confirmed scrub 2017."

    I'm definitely really curious if these are still going to count after the event. I definitely hope not, but I guess I better start trying to blackwind into battlefields while I can just in case.

    If they're anything like Kastalia/Keresis temples, you're in for a surprise :P

    They did uncount the Adryn mazes afterward. Teed off quite a number of people when Explorer ranks plummeted at the time.

    So THATS what those bloody mazes are.

    I missed that event. Was sooooooo confused when I saw those >.>

    Anyone know off-hand how much willpower a shaman's curse uses, and the speed of it (taking into account nimble)?

    Curses and Swiftcurses both take 10 willpower, casting Swiftcurse to restore charges takes 80, and Jinx takes none at all. Attuning Aelkesh makes Curse/Swiftcurse Bleed only take 4 willpower against denizens, and it makes Swiftcurse against denizens occasionally not consume any charges.

    Edit: Forgot balance times. These all include nimble
    Swiftcurse is 1 second with and restoring Swiftcurse charges is 2 seconds, reduced to 1 second if you have at least one charge remaining.

    Curse is about 1.6 seconds and Jinx is 2 seconds.

    Jeesh. Makes the 50 willpower per deadeyes bleed (at 1.8-1.9 balance) seem way too high, considering it only does about 2% damage without crits against the orcs/ogres in Dun.

    Any chance this could potentially be watched and mayhaps lowered if deemed too high, @Makarios? I know it's a bit early as of yet to be changing it already (the changes just went in!), but knowing you guys are watching it will motivate me to get out and hunt more.

    Those costs seem excessive. I remember the Shaman WP costs draining me to 0 after 30 minutes or less of hunting, although I think they have been lowered since then.

    Nah he logged in to explore the Garden. Was pretty metagamey tbh.

    After about 22 minutes hunting (Quartz Peak, Tsol'aa Village), I was down to 10558 out of 28725, and that's with level 1 willpower regen and an ox tattoo. I expect I could wipe out my willpower easily in 30-40 minutes of fairly easy-going bashing.

    I would have tested that to get a more certain time, but after only a couple of Tsol'aa...

    I'm apparently exhausted and typed out ox instead of megalith in the above. I have both active, though, so whatevs in the end, the issues still apply.

    Does anyone have any information or know where to find information concerning Tenith'oru on meropis? I've looked and asked around and even checked the wiki and all I get is "He is a tsol'teth upon meropis /end". Greeting him just gets me snarls or "leave and dont mention what you saw here" or "how did a filthy <race> get here".


    This mystery is really intriguing me...
