| A GUIDE TO MAGICIAN'S MAGICAL ACCURACY Hello Basil, Welcome to my guide to Mage's magical accuracy. This guide is just a repost of the guide I wrote before at basil, which died . Since I saw misconceptions started arising again about magical accuracy, I decided to resurrect my guide. WHAT'S ACCURACY WHY DO I NEED IT? Accuracy is an important stat of the character that determines whether you can hit a particular monster or not. Although a mage can readily see his/her accuracy, by pressing S, it actually represents physical accuracy that other weapon attack classes use. A mage however uses magical accuracy that is based on his/ her INT and LUK stats. IS THERE REALLY A MAGICAL ACCURACY FORMULA OUT THERE? Yes, indeed there's a formula for calculating magical accuracy. Thanks to Thikket and Nekonecat of Sleepywood who worked hard towards finding magical accuracy of a mage. They ended up with a formula that calculates a mage�s accuracy tentatively. Till this point this is the most accurate formula for calculating a Mage�s accuracy. Magical Accuracy = (trunc(int)+trunk(luk))/10. Now how the hit rate on the monster is calculated as follows. Thanks to Thikket and Nekonecat again. Let x = (trunc(INT/10) + trunc(LUK/10))/(Avoid+1)*(1+0.0415*D), where D is the level difference between the player and the monster. Then hitrate% = -2.5795x^2 + 5.2343x - 1.6749. Myths and Facts about Magical Accuracy All these myths was collected from various threads that used to circle around Basil. Myth #1 Mages don�t need accuracy. Fact Mages do need accuracy, but in the magical form. Myth #2 If mage's need accuracy why the state of darkness doesn't affect them? Fact Like said before, mages need accuracy in the magical form. The state of darkness only affects the physical accuracy and not the magical accuracy. Myth # 3 Luk doesn�t have any role in magical accuracy. Fact Int and Luk, both are responsible in deciding mage's magical accuracy. The level difference and the monsters avoid ability decides when you can hit it. Myth #4 1 int = 1m.acc Fact Again, Int and Luk, both are responsible in deciding mage's magical accuracy. INT or LUK is not the sole factor. Also there is not an exact amount how int and luk adds up to accuracy. Myth #5 The more your level difference is, luk affects the most in magical accuracy. Fact INT and LUK both affect magical accuracy in the exact same way at all situations. Myth #6 Lukless have less accuracy than a normal luk mage. Fact This seemingly true misconception is sometimes right and sometimes wrong and can be attributed towards a players funding. Cases where it's right A luckless mage who is completely unfunded at level 71 has 368 int and 4 luk. So his magical accuracy turns out to be 36. A regular luk mage who is completely unfunded at level 71 has 310 int and 70 luk. So her magical accuracy turns out to be 38. Cases where it�s wrong A funded regular luk mage who has around 337 int and 77 luk So her magical accuracy turns out to be 40 A funded |
