Game Mechanics: Feign Death Success Rate

[Nirgon]

Hopefully the loonie bin has a classic EverQuest ward

It will be nice to have the company

So a 19 monk with 100 FD skill has max chance to succeed an FD? Or is it skill and level based check?

I seem to recall failing FD a ton as a monk pre-30ish. Perhap I didn't skill it up fast enough though. It's been a long while.

[Haynar]

No level checks. However, if mob is less than level 35. All successful flops clear all aggro.

It skills up slooooooow.

Yea I'd forgotten about the under 35 memblur thing. Was finding it very weird that FD on my necro was blurring every time.

I look forward to harder pulls in the future on him.

Is the 35 memblur thing working on mez, too? Because it should.

Dont know about that at all. Never knew it should.

[Daldaen]

Mmm I dunno if that's at work or if Mesmerize is just stupidly OP. But I haven't really had to remez a mob several times unless someone was sitting near it or if my charmed pet was fighting near it to get the mob to memblur.

Thought I'd had the same experience against mobs higher than 35 though.

[Potus]

Here's the casters realm stuff on memblur

I seem to remember it being level 35 not level 30, but oh well.

my table was wrong. had 1 too many .65 per line. but if you changed the second fd change to 50% the actual probability to be forgotten changes

1= 0.35 (1-.65)
2= 0.67 (1-.65*.5)

so you have a 67% chance to effect a mem blur if you fd twice

Your first table was correct result wise. The total chance of being remembered would be this, based on number of flops.

1 = 65
2 = 42.3
3 = 27.5
4 = 17.9
5 = 11.6
6 = 7.5
7 = 4.9
8 = 3.2
9 = 2.1

That deviates already at 2 attempts, where they said it would have a 50% chance.

So I went with increasing rate of success, following repeat failures. Overall it works out to be pretty similar.
