If there are other mitigating factors, it's almost guaranteed to break early (even at just 8% per tick it goes up to 81% to break early)
That sounds like some Hillbilly math. A 65% chance would be crazy stuff. There would not be a Caster playing on the whole damn server. We would all slit our wrists. I know there are checks, but lots of resists to level 1 mobs as a level 60 is bull shit. They screwed up and lets not sugarcoat it. Not everyone one here has a total mind block on how the game was years ago. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If every check there is a 5% chance to break, and there is 20 checks to break in 2 minutes, then the chances of it breaking early is 100 - the chances of it never breaking, or .95^20, or 100-35.8485922, or 64.151%.
