Hi Guys! I’ve been reading a few skill/stat guides/threads for Thief/Assassin class and noticed that there’s a debate on whether maxing out Mark of Genocide or leaving it at level 1. Few says to max it and other players (ignorant players if you ask me) even say your a “noob” for not maxing it. Others says its good at level one. so lets do the math shall we.
First, lets look into the skill:
Mark of Genocide (Buff):
Description: Increases Critical Rate of all Party and Attack Squad members by:
Level 1: 0.4% for 30 mins
Level 5: 2.0% for 30 mins
Description: Increases Critical Rate of all Party and Attack Squad members by:
Level 1: 0.4% for 30 mins
Level 5: 2.0% for 30 mins
Now we may have two different versions of computing this depending on the person reading and understanding the Description of the skill. 1st interpretation may be that it adds as is, example will be 10% (your critical rate) + 0.4% (MoG Buff). the other one is that, it will add the percentage of your critical rate to your current critical rate. example: 10% (your critical rate) + [10*0.004] (MoG Buff). the second one will yield a lower result as you can see now. but we will include that in our analysis later, just for the heck of it. haha!
