My opinion is correct. Yes, that is only my opinion, but as we just established: it is correct. Therefor it is my opinion that we will be using from now on. Who cares if it's relevant to anything at the moment, it is correct in a bubble, and that makes me feel good and nothing else matters. Why? because I said so, and that is my opinion, and as was just established: my opinion is correct and is what will be used from now on.

Just wanted to ask about that RP and sneak scalar on the ranged power--is that correct, having the scalar outside the (1+RP/100)? I assumed that "150% RP scaling" meant (1+1.5 x RP/100) but have never tried testing.
You are correct, it should be inside. Same scaling for anything that isnt 100%, the formla for that component is 1+(multiplier x RP/100)

You just copy-pasted something that didn't apply properly to the question at hand, as such the not-your-math was incorrect in the context of DDO.
It is my math. No one says the combine plowed the field; the farmer did. And it is correct within the context of DDO to which I was replying. As we have seen in this thread, DDO has an (overly) complex damage model where break points are elusive to define. My model will continue to evolve and democratize the path to understanding where those are.

Why do I have 522 ddo build files
Everyone agreed my math was correct.

We have already established that my math is correct.
No, your math is wrong lmao. Been saying it the whole time. Your inputs did not produce the correct output = bad math.

If you hire a guy to plow your fields nobody would say you did it. The farmer did all the work, with nothing from you.

Also to continue this analogy: the farmer didn't actually plow the field, and everyone who drives by sees it; but when we tell you that the farmer didn't plow the field you insist that he must have, because he's a farmer and farmers always do their job correctly.

And the math was not correct within the context of DDO to which you were replying - your conclusions and statements you promoted as fact (based on the AI's work) were mathematically, testably, and anecdotally incorrect.

That's the whole reason I got into this debate - the conclusions you drew when evaluating RP & DS with regards to imbue builds were obviously incorrect.

I like math and do lots of it for DDO (and I'm certainly not perfect) but I can show my work, and check your work, and I'm not the only one able to do so.

Understanding the Need to Be Right​

Cognitive Distortions​

Some individuals have a strong need to always be right, which can lead to cognitive distortions. This means they may struggle to accept that they can be wrong. They often feel compelled to prove their correctness, even in trivial matters. This mindset can cause anxiety and stress, as they may feel personally attacked when their views are challenged.

The Illusion of Information Adequacy​

People often believe they have all the necessary information to support their position, even when they do not. This phenomenon, known as the "illusion of information adequacy," leads to overconfidence in their beliefs. They may not consider that additional information could change their perspective.
