Knights of Tezoth

/ Well, you radishes. Only the knights of Deus fight like knights, true to their word. And some others were rolling a barrel at us. /

Maybe I should go invisible now too, and let Alex and Arandor gallop far away while they go after Axel and Nelia?

Well, generally yes, Bugurt assumes exactly that.

/ Yashchur, when will the Albus followers start acting like that? I've been waiting and waiting and I just can't wait /

So I've been fighting for the team and descending all this time, even though it's completely disadvantageous for me. A situation came up where I'm highly likely to catch a deadly shaft, I refuse to walk into it myself, and immediately got accusations from Ples that I don't give a damn about the team, am acting badly, and so on.

If the Prince had kept flying after me, then okay, I would have kept shooting and praying not to get a bleed. But no, he flew away, and I'm supposed to put my own ass on the line for a chance to deal 10 damage to his tank. Not 100, not 50, 10. And even then, I might have missed. Oh, yes, what a vile, despicable creature I am.

We will all be dealing that kind of damage. And we will be the ones getting hit. Without Stef's participation, he will live much longer. So your actions have an impact, yes. From your words it directly follows that until Tarantos is taken down (a gazillion turns), you won't fly over to us. By that time, the whole team might have kicked the bucket, but you'll have a battered Tarantos that you'll suddenly start shooting at.

You and the armor will be dealing micro-damage. But for me, it's a nail to the face — 17-57 + my own retribution 47-127. Total: 64-184 + chance of bleed. And a pretty high one, considering how RNG screws us here and has done so to me in the arena. And all this for a chance of 10-90 damage and a bleed (the second and third are unlikely).

You're playing with statistics in an interesting way, Nei. The chance of your retribution hitting is 38%. The crit chance is 13%. Combined, that's 5%, and that's if Ferlyuts's armor doesn't eat crits entirely. Next, the reflected attack needs to hit you. That's 42%. That comes out to 2%. And then the bleed has to proc. The probability of that is 50%. Total we get 1%. WOW, GUARANTEED TO BE SOLOED BY RETRIBUTION, 100% INFO. RNG has worked both for and against us.

Meanwhile, the chance to hit Tarantos is still 38%. The chance for a bleed is 43%. Total 16%. These are dry facts following from simple mathematical calculations, not an emotional "RNG hates me." It's not RNG that hates us, it's us who hate it. It feels no emotions and can't play favorites. I also believe in Yashchur's honesty.
