2nd Skill Activation Balancing
Translate
Balancing
In this patch, for the first time ever, we are making attempts to balance out 2nd Skill Activation Percent (abbreviated as 2nd Skill %). The balancing will be dependent on 4 factors: Game Mode type, Card type, Element type, and flat rate bonuses from bonus cards (SS'E', Premium Event).
- The maximum for 2nd Skill % is 80%.
Scaling Math
The 2nd Skill % will be changed based on the 6 factors listed:
- Game Mode type
- Card type
- Element type
- Card Type & PVP/PVE Type
- Element & PVP/PVE Type
- Flat rate bonuses from bonus cards (SS'E', Premium Event).
Formula
The calculation for what your 2nd Skill % would be for a certain mode would be as follows:
- ((Game Mode & Element Specific Rate x Game Mode Rate x Card Type Specific Rate x Game Mode Rate x Card Type Rate x Element Type Rate) x Card's 2nd Skill %) + Flat Rate Bonus
Example
For example, if you were playing Teamplay Mode with a Fire Axe that is 40% (which prior to this patch was 26%) 2nd Skill % and a Fire SS'E':
- Tournament Mode Multiplier: 0.63x (0.66x is our baseline since all card 2nd Skill %'s will have been increased by 1.5x)
- General Card Type (Axe) Multiplier: 1.0x
- General Element Type (Fire) Multiplier: 1.05
- Game Mode & Card Type (PVP Mode, Axe) Multiplier: 1.12
- Game Mode & Element Type (PVP Mode, Fire) Multiplier: 1.03
- SS'E' Flat Rate Bonus: +2%
- Following this formula: ((Game Mode & Element Specific Rate x Game Mode Rate x Card Type Specific Rate x Game Mode Rate x Card Type Rate x Element Type Rate) x Card's 2nd Skill %) + Flat Rate Bonus
- ((0.63 x 1.0 x 1.05 x 1.12 x 1.03) x 40%) + 2%) = 30.52%, then we round it -> 31%
