Diminishing returns for potency

UltimateZeus

At one point is it not really worthwhile increasing your potency more?

e.g. My B2 I only use for arena and is sitting at 90% potency. Is this overkill and should I rather replace some potency with more protection / health?

I believe there's always a 15% chance minimum of resisting. Hence potency beyond decreasing the chance to 15% is wasted (depends on the opponent's tenacity as well, and also factor in chances for tenacity up/down in your calculations)

UltimateZeus

So if I have 75% potency, in theory, anyone with 60% tenacity or less results in wasted potency ... ie. I might as well just have 55% potency if the opponents have 40% tenacity as a maximum?

Waqui

I don't know how the calculations are exactly, but I guess (GUESS) that if the opponent has 40% tenacity you will need 55% potency or higher, to land anything. All potency above 125% will be wasted.

I might be wrong. Ust using æogic

Well here's another way to ask:

Is:

MAX(potency - tenacity, 15) = the resistance chance
OR
MAX(potency - tenacity, 15) = the chance to inflict the debuff

?
