Reversion Success Rates

Thrieya - Lost City wrote: »

Since there appears to be no clear info on how it's calculated anywhere I can look, does anyone know how the success rate of our Reversion skills are determined? The skill descriptions just mention a range of percentages and then say the success rate is dependant on the caster's and target's Soulforce, so how does that work?

Spital Reversion

Mark an enemy player's current location, causing
the target to return to that location in 6 seconds.
Success rate when both player and target are the same level
is approximately 60%, with a minimum success rate of
40% to a maximum rate of 80%, dependent on both players' Soulforce.

Tactical Reversion

Mark an enemy player's current location, causing
the target to return to that location in 6 seconds.
The success rate when you and the target are the same level
is approximately 80%, with a minimum success rate of 60%
and a maximum success rate of 100%.
This is dependent on you and your target's Soulforce.

The success of it its like your damage with your weapon has a range.

are people incapable of reading!?

Mr_Lapp your reply is not a reply.

ontopic i have no idea how it works

guesses:

80 + .2 [(your soulforce - enemy soulforce) /max soulforce]

Most People don't usually, and yes your right my reply wasn't much of a reply I do apologize.

I do believe that both 80, and Advance 100 version two different calc's for how it work. I'm try to see if I can find it.

that would be my guess too. I don't see any reason to make it nonlinear for something this simple.

Your probably right Mooooooooo.

I have the level 80 versions of these skills (life reversion and spatial reversion). My experience is life reversion works about half the time, but spatial reversion never, ever, ever, ever works. ever.

I have cast spatial reversion tons of times in pk, TW, NW, and theater of blood and I have never seen it succeed. I had someone testing skills with me shortly after I got them and I spent probably half an hour in pk casting spatial reversion over and over every time it cooled down. I tried it about 10 times in TW this past weekend with no successes. I am tempted to believe this skill just plain doesn't work.

so you are saying it is working as it's described.

b:lipcurl I can do colors too.

Yes I can read. I tried using the skill as described ad nauseam with zero success. So, given the inaccuracy of the descriptions of some other skills, I tried it in other situations, also with zero success.

The level 80 skills only work on the World Map...

tactical only works on the world map (and not in safe zone), mortal works everywhere I believe.

wait wait what I thought Tactical worked on the NW battle map! b:cry What defines "World map" here?

on another note I wasted so much Chi trying to cast Spatial in NW before I finally realised it would never work because the NW battle map wasn't the world map.

someone else told me tactical worked in NW too, I tried it a few times and failed every time.. iunno.. lol

on topic you are absolutely right, every wiz here can prob confirm that spatial/tactical reversion never ever works, even when used in the situations where its not actually going to fail 100% of the time, even in world PK the skill ALWAYS fails, yup skill is broken.
