Updates for tooltip on P.P.M. Enhancements...

[Some Random User]

This is really two suggestions.

• I've noticed newbies and returning players from before their introduction both keep asking the same thing about P.P.M. effect Enhancements. Can we include a newbie-friendly line in the existing P.P.M. paragraph that says the following? "This enhancement adds an extra effect to a power. The effect has a chance to happen whenever you successfully activate the power, such as when you initially start a Toggle power."
• We already have hover-over tooltips that say how much an Enhancement benefits us. I realize the tooltip on the Enhancement can't know what you're going to slot the Enhancement into. Can we add a line that only appears after the Enhancement is slotted? If so, we could have a line that shows the calculated % chance per activation for that slotted power, and instead show a calculated frequency on Auto powers.

The bolded part already happens. If a proc says it will go off X times per minute, it'll go off, on average, X times per minute in an auto power.

Right, but that's misleading to someone who hasn't delved into the numbers.

 

P.P.M. has the dubious distinction of being three things:

1. Because of the late introduction when on live, new to many returning players.
2. One of the only Enhancement effects that doesn't have an accurate number in the tooltips.
3. The sort of complicated formula that scares players off.

I'm interested in cleaning up the tooltips so they're intuitive.
