Questions about force emission
« on: August 09, 2018, 02:10:45 am »
Hi guys, new player here. Have some questions about force emission:

1. Can FE critically hit or not?

2. Is it a melee attack or psi attack(thus affected by melee/psi feats)?

3. How to calculate the exact crit chance/crit dmg bonus of FE hits and mimicked hits (by Proxy)?

    For example. a punch with FE toggled on and then mimicked by Proxy (20% melee crit and 50% psi crit):

    i. punch and FE crit = 20% and will only be checked once
       
       the following mimicked hit will be treated as an independent psi attack and crit = 50%

    ii. punch and FE crit will be checked separately, and FE crit =20% (since triggered by a melee action) but dmg bonus = psi
       dmg bonus (since treated as a psi attack)
 
       the following mimicked hit will be treated as an independent action and crit = 50%

    iii. punch and FE crit will be checked separately, and FE crit =50% (an independent psi attack)
 
       the following mimicked hit will be treated as an independent psi attack and crit = 50%

    iv. punch and FE crit will be checked separately, and FE crit =50% (an independent psi attack)
 
       the following mimicked hit will automatically crit if FE crit (Copy the same result)

    Which one is correct? None?

4. How to calculate the psi cost reduction from different resources? I mean , say, a character wearing muffled headband (-10% psi cost) and have taken Force User (-1 cost of FE) and Psychosis (+20% Cost) and under Trance effect (+20% cost),
    so what is final cost of FE ?
   
    [5*(100%-10%+20%+20%)]-1   (Additive and Round towards zero), or
 
    [5*(100%*90%*120%*120%)]-1  (Multiplicative and Round towards zero), or

    [(5-1)*(100%-10%+20%+20%)] , or
   
    [(5-1)*(100%*90%*120%*120%)]?


Thank you so very much !!!
