If any modifiers do exist, they are tiny, otherwise you would be able to observe clear and noticeable differences between people with different stats. And in my casual observation, I've never seen any.

Crazy thought. It might also have something to do with the fact that only a small number of people actually post here and we've all already made our feelings known.

Bumping wont get you replies. Particularly when it's already on the front page.

All this time I still don't see anything that needs addressing. SE provided us all the answers. There is no secret modifiers to TH proc chance. If you truly believe that there is, then test for them. It's not hard to do and even if there is an RNG modifier, you can still confirm whether or not a modifier exists at all. "it's too hard" is not an excuse.

But I don't see it as necessary. As far as we can tell from what SE has already told us, the only modifier is the difference between your TH level and the TH level you are trying to reach. Please, for everyone's sanity, stop just assuming that secret unknown modifiers must exist just because they exist for something else. I'm not trying to attack you here. But if you want to make these arguments, you need SOMETHING to back them up.

Also: Let's just pretend you're right for a moment: How is discovering that XYZ thing increases proc rate by 1% going to suddenly make THF more relevant? TH is TH, people will take it if they can get it. Tell FFXI players everywhere why they should care about this.
SE's answers would tell us if we can prevent TH proc rate from decaying by increasing TH+ in gear by 1 for every TH proc we receive, above TH8. (i.e. Wear TH+5 to proc TH9 -> Wear TH+6, to proc TH+10, wear TH+7 to proc TH+11, etc.) OR Does simply wearing TH+11/12 cover all bases for TH proc rate decay?
