Voltixdark Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 I have built a character where I have calculated that my total recharge percentage is not showing up properly. I have used Mids designer, but that program is filled with bugs and does not always show the full correct stats. The AT is a Scrapper - Ninjutsu/Martial Arts Powers with Luck of Gambler sets total are 8 which equal 60%. Other powers with miscellaneous sets with recharge bonus in them total 28.75%. Total should be 88.75%, but I am getting 57.5%. I have a attached my Mids file. Gababunto - Scrapper (Martial Arts).mxdFetching info...
Blackfeather Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 The wall you're hitting up against is called the "Rule of 5" - the set bonuses of enhancements can only be received a maximum of five times. After five LotG recharge bonuses, no more will count. You can confirm this by selecting "View Active Sets" in Mids.

I never knew that before, and I've had this game since 2007. Thanks for that important piece of information! Also if that is the case, my reharge then should be 66.25%. LotG is the only set that I have slotted over 5 times besides ToD set. Another thing.. with the "rule of 5", does that also apply to other stats besides recharge? There does not seem to be a limit there say for Melee defense or resistance besides the caps for the AT's.
Blackfeather Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 To clarify, you can only receive the effects of a specific set bonus a maximum of five times. E.g. 10% bonus recharge from the purple sets.

Expand Generally, no - it should only apply between a single set; purples are the exception to that, to my knowledge. If you want to confirm though, the "View Active Sets" button in Mids can help point out what bonuses that you're overslotting.

Either way though, in Mids my cap for recharge is 66.25 yet still i am stuck with 57.5 in game. So that is a bug. I am not sure what is wrong.
Blackfeather Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 What numbers and set bonuses show up in your Combat Attributes window?
Burk Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 What set a bonus comes from doesn't matter, only the numbers. This means you can have 5 recharge bonues of 10%, 5 of 8.75%, 5 of 7.5%, etc. Do note that the luck of the gambler special enhancement is not a set bonus, so while you can have only 5 of them, they do not clash with the other 7.5% recharge set bonuses. I don't know why Mids is giving you a different amount. Given that the difference between expected and actual is 8.75%, that looks like you're not getting credit for the 6-slotted preventative medicine in kuji-in sha. The only other bonuses you have are 5%s and a 10%, so those don't look like they could be the problem. 1 From Champion (Hero) and Infinity (Villain), currently playing on Everlasting.

Expand My bad, I fixed the issue. I had the wrong setup in mids which was not reflecting what I actually built in game. I mixed one of the healing sets with another. It is reflecting correctly. Thank you for setting me straight. Sometimes you need another set off eyes to set you right! 😛 1
