Default Re: Precision Math

Ok, so (10+1+8-3)/4=4 & the in-game display saying "Darkness-7" is... misleading.

A dwarf with Darkvision(50) follows that formula too:

Precision:10
Experience:1
(no mention of Utterdark, but it's there)


(10+1)/(4/2)=5.5 (rounded up = 6) & Current Precision shows 6.

However, the same dwarf with Darkvision(50) and Eye of Aiming:

Precision:10
Experience:+1
Magic Bonus:+8
Eye Loss:-3
(no mention of Utterdark, but it's there)


Wouldn't his precision be: (10+1+8-3)/(4/2)= 8?
Instead it's 10.

Edit: Ok, it seems experience isn't harmed by Utterdark, but then the above dwarf should have 9.
