Math on sloting don't work

Postby quark73 » Mon Sep 01, 2014 12:37 am

today i make many trials with people with high thread and needle stats and also I tried to slot many items, always the percentage is more than 67 and many times is over 75%, real percentage don't match, on 10 trial i see only 3 times a success. How is it possible? the math don't work!

Its called luck, there was a chance to fail each time you got unlucky. ill show you this gear i made for an alt other day, everything had a chance of 68-75% the laces were 85% and all done in one sitting.

Just for the record, the laws of probability dictate that the actual chance of succeeding with m slottings out of n when the indicated chance is p is:

Which would mean that if your indicated chance was 75%, the probability of getting only 3 out of 10 was about 0.31%. A small, but certainly not impossible, chance. Consider yourself unlucky. :)
