Some PROC changes coming

I24 Proc Chance = (Enhanced Recharge + Activation Time) * (Current PPM * 1.25) / 60*(1 + .75*(.15*Radius - 0.011*Radius*(360-Arc)/30))

Radius is zero, so...

I24 Proc Chance = (Enhanced Recharge + Activation Time) * (Current PPM * 1.25) / 60

If you have "maxed" slotted recharge, such as from an ATO set, this comes out to...

(7.5+1.2) * 4 * 1.25 / 60 = 72.5% chance

That's for the non-Superior version. For the Superior it becomes...

(7.5+1.2) * 5 * 1.25 / 60 = 90% chance

Mmm, 72.5% chance is not bad of a nerf I guess. I can see the reason behind it.

It gives us more reason to get Superior version then. :P

And again, since you can' stack Guile's duration, if you don't proc in your first attack chain, your next one should proc and you get a re-hide proc. With high enough +recharge and full set of ATO in Assassin Strike, you can easily use AS before 10s duration. Overall, I don't think it would affect Stalker's proc much. Other procs, however... that's too long of a thread for me to read. I'll just wait and see. I can see the pros and cons on each side as people made a specific build already and with the new change, they may need to respec/re-plan.

If those people bought the cash items thinking that they are simply going to be "superior", then that's the wrong reason to even buy them.

I just don't think this company would push out cash items that are going to be much better than the items you get in-game. A game company that does that usually gets a pretty bad rep. I can understand being "a little bit" better but not at the ratio we are seeing now.

I think those cash sets are for people who don't have the time to grind them. It's a great time saver if you can afford. I don't think they were ever meant to be "better". Some of the % seems way better than the old IOs and you know the dev is going to balance them in the future.
