Note though that claw increase the result from the block more often than MB even against av7 (that is causing a more prones and KOs)

Edit: Made a little table:

Code:
results with a successfull block against AV7 with:

         prone         stunned         KO              cas
nothing: 58.3% (7/12)  24.3% (35/144)  10.4% (5/48)    6.9% (5/72)

MB:      41.6% (5/12)  27.0% (13/48)   16.9% (73/432)  14.4% (31/216)

Claw:    27.8% (5/18)  42.1% (91/216)  18.1% (13/72)   12.0% (13/108)

There'd be an 83.3% (2+) chance of the monkey biting of your hand. Then there'd be a 55.6% (5+ with reroll) chance of the goblin getting away. A 33% (5+) chance of him fouling you back, a 41.7% (15/36) chance of him breaking your AV followed by a 16.7% (10+) chance of a casualty, again followed by a 16.7% (6) of you dying.

So, if you foul a goblin with 2 assists (who are negated by the swinging monkey) while swinging a monkey by the tail, there's a 1.7% chance of your dying.

Seems like good odds to me.

I guess it's just force of habit, at first I didn't realize it was you and when I did notice I thought "Oh my, the old avatar looked better".

Anyone know how to properly predict the casualty rate for MB? Against armor 7 I came up with this => ( ( ( (21/36) * (6/36) ) + ( (15/36) * (10/36) ) ) / 2) = 23/216 or .10648

Is this correct?

LOL. Apparently if you put an 8 and a ) you get a smiley with shades.


P(cas|MB and AV7)=P(cas|MB used on armor)+P(cas|MB use on injury roll)

so calculation 1: P(cas|MB used on armor)=P(rolling 7 on armor)*P(injury roll gives a cas) = 6/36 * 6/36=1/36

calculation 2:
P(cas|MB used on injury roll= P(rolling 8 or more on armor) *P(injury roll give a cas so 9 or more) = 15/36*10/36= 5/12 * 5/18=25/216

So now P(injury|MB and Av 7) = 1/36+25/216=31/216=14,35%


Changing the Av changes intermediary P(rolling x on armor). So it's not that difficult to change.

I made calculation for claw vs MB and claw is usually weaker as MB but the best choice IMo is to opt out for Claw + MB (RSC is costly for a double)

Anyway I feel ok with a stun so I prefer Claw. Whatever


nb: to MrMojo: usefull post or not? no??? still not?
