So, I can begin to imagine the effects that habanero juice would have while making it's exit.

    There would be no sitting. There would be no squatting. There would be flailing and crying and screaming.
    I actually got a bottle of this crap a few years back from a friend of mine who is a "Gourmet Foods Distributor".

    I put a few drops in a pot of soup I was making and ruined it. I then proceeded to sabotage peoples food at work for a while until someone vomited, so I threw it out. Good stuff.

    I'm leaning towards "drink a half-gallon of sriracha and chocolate syrup and fernet branca" but I feel there must be something both better and worse out there.

    Creamcheese, green olives, mustard, mushed bananas, and Teryaki-sauce, mix it up and serve on ritz/salteen crackers. Thats my thought.

    What on earth did you expect when you made a thread specifically about Red Mage? Honestly...

    How do you figure -40 evasion is +20% hit rate. That calculation only works when the target is the same level as the player. For every level the target is above the attacker, we get a -4 accuracy penalty as well, so -40 evasion on a level 120 target hardly affects their evasion.

    Umm ......

    -40 evasion is exactly +20% hit rate until you hit the cap @95%.

    The accuracy formula is linear. 2 acc = +1% hit rate. 2 evd = -1% hit rate. When acc and evd are equal then you have a 75% base hit rate. For each level the monster is above you it gets another +4 evasion bonus for LCF.

    This if your at 60% hit rate, and some lands Gravity II on the monster you now have 80% hit rate until it wears. Of course 60% hit rate .... yeah.

    It's -2% Hit rate per dLvl, rather than Accuracy.

    -40 Eva is always +20% Hit rate when hit rate is unbounded, but it has a reduced/null effect when your hit rate is already at/past either the upper or lower bounds.

    Example: Going from 90% hit rate to 95% (upper bound), or going from 20% hit rate to 25% hit rate (original Acc check bringing hit rate below lower bound).

    In practice? You're usually at the upper bound these days anyways if your gear isn't trash tbfh.

    Ref: Hit Rate (%) = 75 + floor( (Accuracy - Evasion)÷2 ) - 2×(dLVL)

    I know I shouldn't of hit show post but I had to see how you'd try to make this into an arguement.

    What I posted, just for clarity.

    -40 evasion is exactly +20% hit rate until you hit the cap @95%.
    +4 evasion = -4 accuracy = +2% evasion rate = -2% hit rate

    Their all the exact same.

    Talk about semantics .....
