Title: Questions on Acu rating and Abs effectiveness Post by: plug on June 09, 2009, 09:45:42 PM I have couple of questions.
Questions on Acu rating: 1. What is the calculation on the CP's "Target Tracker" on weapon's accuracy rating? If the combination of my weapon + computer has already given a 70% acu rating, and I have 10% on the CP's "Target Tracker" Will the calculation be: A. 70% + 10% = 80% or B. 70% * 1.1 = 77% 2. Is 99% the absolute maximum for acu rating? What if the combination of my weapon plus computer has already a 99% acu rating, and my CP's "Target Tracker" has 10% Will the final acu rating still be only 99% ? 3. Has anyone come up with a chart listing a more effective combo of the weapon acu rating + computer acu rating? Question on Abs rating: 1. According to the formula by Chronos, the absorb rate is calculated by A * [1/(100%-Y%)] If my ship has 1 billion hitpoints, and the abs rating is 60%, what is the total effective hitpoints? Is it 1 Billion + 1 Billion * 1 / (100%-60%) = 1 Billion + 2.5 Billion = 3.5 Billion or Is it 1 Billion * 1 / (100%-60%) which gives 2.5 Billion? Which calculation is correct. 2. If my ship's shield has 60% absorption rate, and my CP's "Shield Master" has 10%, what would my ship's total abosorption rate be? Is it 60% + 10% = 70%? Or Is it 60% * 1.1 = 66%? 3. TNTTony said that the max shield is 80%. Does that take into account the CP's "Shield Master"? What if my ship has 60% shield, and my CP's "Shield Master" has 40%, would the max shield still be limited to 80% ? I also include a list of how much the weapon's own accuracy rating cost, in cr.

I'll tell you why:
A ship is either destroyed, or not. There is no middle ground. So the point that matters is only when the total, effective damage equals your total health (plus defence). Basically, if you have a health (plus effective defence) of H and an absorb of A%, and the enemy inflicts D damage, then the only significant point is when D becomes high enough to satisfy H = D * (100% - A%) To figure out effective a ships effective health, just divide by (100% - A%), and we get H / (100% - A%) = D So that is how much raw damage such a ship can sustain. P.S. Shield can never reach a hundred, so it is probably capped at 80% after all the bonuses (bonii?) are applied.
