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
- Equipment & Game Mode Type
- Element & Game Mode Type
- Flat rate bonuses from bonus cards (SS'E', Premium Event).
The calculation for what your 2nd Skill % would be for a certain mode would be as follows:
- ((Game Mode Rate * Card Type * Element Type) * Card's 2nd Skill %) + Flat Rate Bonus
For example, if you were playing Teamplay Mode with a Water Sword that is 40% (which prior to this patch was 26%) 2nd Skill % and a Water SS'E':
- Teamplay Mode Multiplier: 0.66x (0.66x is our baseline since all card 2nd Skill %'s will have been increased by 1.5x)
- Card Type (Sword) Multiplier: 0.9x
- Element Type (Water) Multiplier: 0.9x
- SS'E' Flat Rate Bonus: +2%
- ((0.66 * 0.9 * 0.9) x 40%) + 2%) = 23.38% -> 23% (Rounded)
