Notes

Success = [(skill base% + 1/2 ranks) * mob resistance] + (affinity boost/2) + effect boost

  • Stats have been proven to do either nothing, or close to nothing to affect the final landing chance.
    • Example: All the stats at your personal character stats window.
  • Affinity Bonuses affects the landing rate.
    • Example: Any Soul Stone/Tarot that adds towards death-based damage (Phantom, Chernobog, Inugami, Arahabaki if CHAOS) will contribute to the chance the aliment type, Stone, will land on an enemy.
  • Any weapon that has an affinity boost will also add to the chance.
  • However, modding a weapon will not affect the landing rate.
    • Example: Adding +15% death on slot 3 of a weapon.
  • Success in landing a status aliment or hex may also be increased by gears.
