Stealth penalties and scaling
« on: April 14, 2021, 07:57:28 pm »
Is the exact formula by which armor penalty impacts stealth known? I searched for some concrete resource on this, but having found none I attempted today to try and figure out how much stealth a piece of armor needs to give to overcome the minuses from its own armor penalty, but the observations I made suggested that the amount of stealth that armor penalizes increases the more effective stealth you have outside of that given by the armor piece (i.e. stealth penalties arent constant with the armor penalty). Before potentially frying my brain trying to discern the exact function from the small amount of information I have, I wanted to check here first to see whether anything about this has been posted before, here or anywhere else.

It might be like this?
effective stealth = (stealth from skill, agi + armor modifiers) * (1.0 - armor penalty)
