THF and DNC

[Byrth]

"oh you have TH! you're always wanted! BLAHBLAHBLAHHURP I dont even have THF leveled so i have no idea how useless and placebo TH is DERP DERP but i'll still act like its the best ability in the game HERP HERP"

It's kind of hard to avoid seeing this as directed at me, so here's the link that shows you're wrong:

TH definitely does matter. If you're doing an event for drops and choosing between a Ukon WAR and a THF, you should always choose the Thief. Killing half as quickly but getting more than twice as many drops ends up being a good deal. There are plenty of times on Dancer when I solo NMs where I don't need to Waltz at all and wish I had Thief leveled because I'd like to get drops.

Assuming they extended the mechanism proposed in that thread further, the odds of a drop with TH3 are:
n = (1 - Drop rate)
TH3 Drop rate = (1-n^4)

10% drop rate -> 35% drop rate.
30% drop rate -> 76% drop rate.
50% drop rate -> 94% drop rate.

Blue and TH is much better than just Blue. I wonder why? This doesn't even account for whatever TH+1 and the new proc system does.

Yeah, poor Thief. It's hard being one of the most useful jobs in the game.
