How much do Clerics need CHA?

[zelld52]

Charisma is super-important for cleric if you plan on using the Pacify line at all. Charisma doesn't affect the chance of being successful, but it does affect the chance of aggro on a resist.

The formula for rolls to check for crit resist are (apparently):

MobRoll = (((MobMR + MobLevel) / 3) / MobMaxMR) + (RandomFloat(-0.1, 0.1))

CasterRoll = (((CasterCha + CasterLevel / 3) / CasterMaxCha) + (RandomFloat(-0.1, 0.1))

So with 50 charisma, at level 30 - You get + 0.105 added to your roll between -0.1 and 0.1. If that number is lower than the mob roll, you get aggro.

With 150 charisma, at level 30 - You get + 0.235 added to your roll between -0.1 and 0.1. Much higher chance of beating the mob roll on a resist.
