Ability Range: Difference between revisions

Rem (talk | contribs)
m The wording was not correct, it stated to Multiply the remainders, when it should be differences. Remainders is for division problems and would mean a totally different equation.
Rephrase calculation section to call it 'diminishing returns' instead of 'multiplicative' and to clarify the way it diminishes

Multiple sources of Ability Range stack with diminishing returns, rather than multiplicatively or additively. Additional sources of Ability Range contribute less the closer the effective bonus gets to 100%, and the effective bonus can never actually reach 100%.


=== Calculating Ability Range ===
<math>\text{Effective Ability Range bonus} = 1 - (1 - R_1) \times (1 - R_2) \dots</math>
Multiple sources of Ability Range stack '''multiplicatively''', not additively:
 
<math>\text{Total Ability Range} = 1 - (1 - R_1) \times (1 - R_2) \dots</math>


'''Example:'''
'''Example:'''
With '''35%''' from {{ItemIcon|Greater Expansion}} and '''10%''' from {{ItemIcon|Divine Barrier}}:
With '''35%''' from {{ItemIcon|Greater Expansion}} and '''10%''' from {{ItemIcon|Divine Barrier}}:
# Convert percentages to decimals: 0.35 and 0.10.
# Convert percentages to decimals: 0.35 and 0.10.
# Subtract from 1: (1 - 0.35) = '''0.65''' and (1 - 0.10) = '''0.90'''.
# Take the complement with 1: (1 - 0.35) = '''0.65''' and (1 - 0.10) = '''0.90'''.
# Multiply the differences: 0.65 × 0.90 = '''0.585'''.
# Multiply the complements: 0.65 × 0.90 = '''0.585'''.
# Subtract from 1: 1 - 0.585 = '''0.415'''.
# Take the complement with 1: 1 - 0.585 = '''0.415'''.
# Total Ability Range bonus is approximately '''41.5%''', not 45%.
# Effective Ability Range bonus is approximately '''41.5%''', not 45%.
