AgentRgent Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) On my Necro/Dark MM on Excelsior (The Grey Ghoul) I have 4 sets of Unbreakable Guard (2 pieces) which should give me -2.5% Endurance Discounts each, but in my Combat Attributes it shows them as -2.43% discounts...and the total END discount doesn't match the sum of the discounts (showing 9.08% instead of the sum 9.72%) nor the correct 10%. Seems like some strange maths going on... Edited February 16, 2023 by AgentRgent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major_Decoy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) If I recall correctly, the bonuses are multiplicative and not additive. I mean, the math still doesn't work that way, but it does explain some of the weirdness. I remembered how it works. It is additive, but on the denominator, just like recharge reduction. Endurance cost = 1/ (1+ endurance reduction) So 1/ (1+.025+.025+.025+.025) = 1/1.1 = .9090909... which is a reduction of 9.09% (I suspect that the 8 is something of a rounding issue) Edited February 16, 2023 by Major_Decoy edited to correct information 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major_Decoy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Oh, and that also conveniently explains the -2.43% too! 1/1.025 = .97560... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well almost.. last I checked -0.024390243902439 should round to -2.44.. but because it's truncating instead of rounding it's losing a not insignificant amount of the discount. 😞 Edited February 16, 2023 by AgentRgent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arc-Mage Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Everything in the game rounds down. It always has. Being constantly offended doesn't mean you're right, it just means you're too narcissistic to tolerate opinions different than your own. With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.
