Info: Correction Equipment Methodology Skill Influence

[Aeolus]

Hello.

It seemed that the correctness of the effects of skills in the profession in the entropiawiki.com was maximally correct and tested. Especially in ancient professions. So it was. For 6 years of the game, I did not stumbled on errors in this section.
But the other day I noticed that the effect of the skill Equipment Methodology is incorrect. Instead of the 5% indicated there, the influence is 6% for all three involved professions (Metal Engineer, Electronics Engineer, Mechanical Engineer).
Since the total effects should be 100%, it means that some other skills also indicates inaccurate influence. It can only be a skill Industrialist, since the remaining skills are correct.
Industrialist is not open on me, so I can't check it out. If someone has a desire and the ability to check, please inform In this topic.

I have already corrected information in the entropiawiki.com, and indicated that the influence of industrialist is not verified.

I do not know if it is important for someone, but I decided to inform.
Alexander.

Thank you for the information mate. I am working on getting Industrialist myself so I can't help test it out yet.

Cheers

indeed, with 5% and 5% in eq meth and ind I am getting 67.3396 calculation, while game shows 67.3973
if adapting to 6% and 4%, calculation becomes 67.3969

I’ve not scrutinized this but chipping optimizer has always given me corrct info!

looks like 5% works fine?

That is my reference for skill effects…

its the same issue there as well, 5% and 5% is not the best good match for these profstandings, i have contacted jdegre to check this out

Cool, he is very good at the math of all this so hard to think he got it wrong.

thanks a lot, everyone, for the new info. i had missed this tread entirely (i have now seen that Smilgs sent me an email to draw my attention to this thread, but I also missed it it must have come during times of super heavy work load IRL).

I have updated the tools to reflect the new %'s in those professions.

@jak: thanks for your trust on my math abilities but unfortunately the maths are not so important here; what we really need is data, and (back then) there were not much data from avatars with those skills unlocked and with a high enough level to tell the difference between +-1% influence.
