    I had a long winded explanation of why you aren't supposed to add together independent probabilities but then I remembered I don't actually care.

    After his post right there I've lost care too.
    I'll take your word on that, even though I'm not seeing where you get that.

    1/20 * 1/20 * 3/2 = 3 in 800 = 0.00375 = .375% chance errrr hmmmm :S

    That would be -int probability * -int probability * two out of three spots needed to fill to get two -ints. I haven't done probabilities in a long while so I could still be rusty.

    I can just see the discussion that led to this....


    "This rank 9 sale is really popular in the U.S. we've brought in a huge profit this quarter."

    "but people are complaining that it's too game breaking"

    "well how about we introduce a way to reforge nirvana gear to be as powerful as rank 9? The necessary materials will only be available from packs of course."

    "That's great! But the people who already have rank 9 may complain..."

    "Not to worry! We'll just let them use the same materials to reforge their rank 9 into gear that's even more game breaking!"


    "...Brilliant."

    b:bye

    I died laughing! LMAO!

    There are exactly 3 distinct possibilities that give you 2 -ints

    -int / -int / ****
    -int / **** / -int
    **** / -int / -int

    The chance of the first possibility is .05 * .05 * .95 = .2375%
    The chances of the other two are the same = .2375%

    The total chance is P(first) + P(second) + P(third) = 3 * .2375 = .7125% = 1:140

    Since you'd probably be okay with 3 -ints as well, the chance would be about 1/138 (7.25 x 10^(-3)). Peanuts pretty much, but it's another 2 attempts which you don't need to do, on average :P

    Meh so you'll give up a touch in defense because you can't wear r9 / cube neck, but you'll gain.... *grumbles*

    5 APS G15 +12: 305,432 dps
    4 APS R9 +12: 302,373 dps
    4 APS R9R +12: 320,900 dps
    5 APS G16 Nirvy (manually entered in +12 stats) 334,905 dps

    PS Olbaze what's the formula for average DPS w/ wolf emblem.

    EDIT: Never mind, I found it.

    DPS = [(Min ATK + Max ATK) / 2] * [1 + (CRIT / 100) * (1 + W.E. / 100)] * ATK LVL * APS

    PS Olbaze what's the formula for average DPS w/ wolf emblem.

    I actually don't have a formula for it. Mostly because writing single-row syntax with fractions is ugly as hell, but also partly because I don't need one. I prefer a depth-based approach rather than width when it comes to formulae. That is, rather count each variable one at a time rather than all at the same time:
    Min + Max = Ans
    Ans / 2 = Avg
    Avg * (1+1.2*(crit%)) = DPH
    DPH * APS = DPS
    DPS * (1+Atk lvl/100) = Secondary DPS
    Secondary DPS * (1+SS/GoF) = Final DPS
    DPS = [(Min ATK + Max ATK) / 2] * [1 + (CRIT / 100) * (1 + W.E. / 100)] * ATK LVL * APS

    How ugly. You could just do a*b*c*d, that would make it less ugly.
    lol i said there was no interval

    Then where's the supposed "trade"? GoF adds 20% overall damage, you would need a total of 100 attack levels before the additional 40 for GoF to be superior. And that's really only an option with full R9. Not to mention that even G15 Nirvana out-does R9 in terms of DPS with ideal mods and with the G16 being obviously superior to that, there's no real question as to whether it'd be superior to non-recast R9 in an ideal or realistic setting.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    So I did some looking, and found the boss that drops the mats required for this... Not looking good for us anymore... 17-25K phys attack... 4.8m HP and 1.5K pdef. http://www.pwdatabase.com/cn/mob/34970

    The attack on him is higher than sonic oppressor, though much less HP and pdef... This still seems like for the average player, it might pose a problem.

    Ugly? Besides the crit being prettier the rest is * b * c... so I dunno lol.
