Only the DPS and item stats matter.


Each item has a "budget" that goes into its stats and bonuses (e.g.,"+12 Str", "+100 combat rating", etc). Epics have a bigger budget compared to blues, which...

Cool :thumbsup:

Thanks! I guess I don't have to re-feat to take it out, I'll just let Precise Attacks stay feated then.

Yes, it would have been better to use a different word, but that was already the word I used in my initial post, and there was just this nitpick about semantics, which I then tried to unmuddle, and...

For your comment "unrelated to anything you suggest":
I think you did not understand the context of my conversation with user Kurt. We were not talking of ping. He commented on the difficulty that...

In the context of discussing effects to a company, we have to adhere to the strict definitions because it is what makes a difference to the company.

Correct.

All statistical models produce probabilities, not guarantees, and the reliability of the probabilites themselves depend on the quality of data and the fitness of the model used. There is...

There is no confusion here. Instead, we are disagreeing on mere semantics.

Therefore, let's come to an understanding of "meaning" so we have something solid upon which to base a debate.

I've seen a lot of your vids, btw. Thanks for making them, they were very informative :)


What's your opinion about Precise Attacks / armor penetration? Too little to be useful? I think it...

You over-simplified the scenario (or perhaps your understanding of the situation is really over-simplified, or perhaps your emotions about the current event is clouding your normally astute...

We are in complete agreement.

And indeed, I was not "commanding" people not to complain. Rather, I was informing them (in case they were mistaken in their assumptions) that the change is...

Yes, this seems like a difficult challenge. However, this and even more complicated scenarios are routinely dealt with by quantitative methods. Statisticians solved problems like these long ago, and...

1.) Yes, people are quitting. No one is saying "nobody is quitting". In any given period (day/week/month/quarter/year), there are always old people quitting and new people joining. What's important...

Yeah, I realized it was too harsh after seeing moderator Grizzly had to clean it up.

(By the way, Griz, you have my gratitude that you did not simply edit out the entire post (which would have...

That's a fair point, and one that may need clarification on my side.

First:
1.) Making a decision based on facts ("data-driven" decision-making) is the industry standard in almost all industries,...

Is Precise Attacks (armor penetration) not worth feating compared to iron skin or stone skin? I haven't tested its contribution to DPS yet. Is it minimal / inconsequential?
