73975, Mummufying: base chance: 3, lol/doh/facepalm
Posted by Necro on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I don't call for discussion, just stumbled on a funny and very interesting thnig, that really breaks all math that in that topic: http://forums.carrionfields.com/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=6&topic_id=63896&mesg_id=63896&page=

And this is what shreds this theory on pieces:

Thu Nov 22 07:50:07 2018 at level 47 (233 hrs):
Base chance: 3, Roll: 16, Result: Death!
<PK: 17-7>

Lol, how is it even possible with 233 hours? It's relatively good amout of hours for becoming. I have one idea, but I'm afraid that if I'll post it, toppic will get locked and I'll get mocked :) So I'll refrain from posting it and maybe I'll hide it somewhere in the game!

Chance is, counter-intuitively, determined when the quest is started, not handed in. So 3% chance was based on this:

Sat Oct 20 06:56:25 2018 at level 47 (148 hrs):
Zanitjah began the quest to become a Mummy <PK: 8-3>

Apparently he ticked basically zero of the boxes at that stage. Sucks to be Zanitjah.
73977, No, I don't think so

It's not logical, nope. Chance is counted when the process is started (at least I've been told that many years ago, IC by Conservator). But even 148 hours is not enough to "earn" 3% base chance. There is something else, and I think (again) know what! In other words, it's not enough to live for 350+ hours and you'll chance will be 90% (see Saam's timeline).
73978, Gosh!

I can't imagine what you are *possibly* alluding to or why you specifically would be doing it!
73980, ?

Doing what?
73979, It used to be.

I think that got fixed to re-calculating on finish as well now.

Someone else can slap me if I'm wrong.
