Tsillah Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Heya. Say I got a critchance of 25%, and I trow a hot skill with 4 ticks. How much % chance is there for the skill to proc atleast one Critical heal? And please trow me the formula, because I really forgot it mathematics....well, calculus in this case. Every time you use it there's a chance of 1 in 4 that the crit triggers. On average it means it crits every four times, but it doesn't mean that it will crit once every four tries.

Arakasii Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 There is a 75% chance your tick will NOT crit. So there is a .75^4 chance none of your ticks will crit. 1-.75^4 chance that at least one tick will crit (about 68%). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malice_Nihilim Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Flip a coin (50% chance), sometimes you will get heads 25 times in a row, but assuming an infinite flips, it comes to 50% chance. Random number generators are 'random'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtroll Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) Thanks, ended up at 86,27% Is that correct? EDIT Sorry 68.35%, did one tick to many. (75x75)/100=56,25 (56,25x75)/100 = 42,1875 (42,18x75)/100 = 31.64 100 - 31,64 = 68,36 Seems right, my free noble sacrifice procs about that rate (without the buff), thanks for the help.

Xtroll Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) Sorry for the duble post, But if I got my logic stright (Well it could happen). For a Jedi Sage healer. With the Conveyance (+25% crit) and Resplendence (free force if crit) talents for force regen purposes, im looking at a "Soft cap" at 25% crit?... Wrong forum I know, But I started here Edited January 26, 2012 by Xtroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
