Either the item or one of the gems must be 100%.

Well, you should actually feel very lucky if you explode on 1% chance. Imagine, an MP has a chance of 2% to occur, exploding on 1% is like getting 2 MP in a row. =)

your Evocation level is also taken into consideration, every 50 points you get lower chances of explosion.

I got more often 2mps in a row than explode ;)

But statistics work quite correctly, you only have to consider that each try (even a failed attempt) counts.

Once I imbued three sets in a row, after roughly 110 attempts without explosion (rather unlucky still, one item took 17 tries before imbuing even at 30% success rate :gaga: ) I warned my customer that a 1% explosion chance ist statistically likely...3 tries later we ate dirt... statistics is a ****** :D

Chance to get 2 MPs in a row is 0.04%. Chance of exploding at 1% is 25x higher 8)
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

Maths! Gotta love it. This made my day Blue.

But too many people see 1% or 2% and thing their number or tries matter. Sadly they don't understand statistics. Each try is independent. And for the record, having a MP item wont save it from BOOM even with all 99% gems. And knowing DAoC is hard mode, I won't be shocked if the nominal "0%" is more like 0.8% and not absolute zero.

In fact it does...

...item 99% - all gems 99% - 2% BOOM probability...
...item 100% - all gems 99% - 0% BOOM probability...

at least the game says so! :D

The game says 1% for 4x 99% gems on a 99% item.

and it's the same as 1x 100% 2x 99%, 1x 98%
or 2x 100%, 2x 98%
And so on...

But as hotpockets says, the game shows an integer value, not sure if decimals are taken into account.

Right 1% for the 99% item, but it was the MPs we were after...so no worries about the MPs, they're kind of indestructable as far as 99% gems are concerned. :D

Well, I've been insanely lucky today, I exploded two times.
Both with 99% gems on 99% gear.

Does that 1% boom chance gets lower past 1050 evocation?

I keep getting told by different people that if you use MP items you can't blow up with MP gems OR Having one MP gem will save your item from blowing up. I am not sure if this is just rumors they hear because I haven't seen numbers on it. DAoC loves everything in hard mode so as I said previously, I won't she shocked if the "0%" it shows you is not absolute zero. Having blown up plenty of things with all 99% gems and the fact it is DAoC, I have a feeling it this protective safety net is not there.
