    Something that does help is that we do have AB PERCENTAGES, and I'm about 95% sure it works even with a TF. 
    It does work with a TF, giving the percent of what you are actually at from the looks of it.
  • edited January 2017
    AB PERCENTAGES seems to be a bit weird, but from what I've noticed, the percent isn't affected by favours, while the rank is. So if you're at, say, Mythical 50% in a skill, and a favouring temporarily bumps that to Transcendent, the readout will show Transcendent 50% (As opposed to the percentage column being blank like normal with Trans). Likewise, if you're at Expert 68% and a favour boosts you to somewhere in Virtuoso, the readout will say Virtuoso 68%. (Even if you only have the skills of Virtuoso 33% from the favour boost).
    The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure pure reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!
  • the percent isn't affected by favours, while the rank is.

    This is false, afaik. Higher rank=Better boon.

    Mythical %33+x's favour can get you to trans while expert %33 + x's favour doesn't get you to virtuoso.

    I'm putting down X because, different divines have different lesson boons in their favors, which corelates with their seniority.

    That is not what Stratas said.  He is simply saying that one half of the text returned ignores the favour (the percent) and the other half respects it (the rank).  Not sure if that is the case since I have never tested it, but his post has nothing to do at all with how much a favour actually adjusts your skills.

    He is not talking about the actual Favour. He is talking about how AB Percentages displays its information.

    Ab Percentages shows your true %, but it doesn't show your true rank, instead it shows your favoured rank.
  • I must have misread it then, I don't know how AB percentages work anyways. I merely stated how favors function

  • All hail @Ianir !!!!

    :bowdown:
    Take great care of yourselves and each other.
  • I just want to offer a general apology to everyone who may be involved in a little issue recently. I know some people have been a bit hurt and upset and my default reaction was to dive in head first to try and fix things for everyone asap and make everyone happy again but I think I may have made things worse by poking my nose in trying to help when patience would have been the better option.

    This. With a shot of espresso. Maybe a straw and bottle of wine at my desk.

    Brandy is dandy, but liquor is quicker.
  • Okay but isn't Brandy a liquor?

    Distilled wine, so maybe
  • It is most definitely a spirit/liquor. That distillation is pretty much the definition.

    You sure? You fall into blissful sleep only to be startled awake moments after, being utterly confused as to what's going on? Plus you get more exhausted by trying not to fall asleep... doesn't sound like something I'd like to have.

    Sounds like a normal night's sleep to me...?

    yep, apart of the fact you only had 5 seconds of sleep before it kicks in, so instead of a nights rest... you get the idea. I think the better idea would be wtb supramortal irl. Eat and drink when you want and bye sleep.

    TIL I learned that I was orbiting about my first nature clue ( which I didn't solve in the two hours I was trying ) by a -single- room difference. Adrenaline or frustration did make me miss it... (building on Zoaka) :-(

  • Or just your Imperial and Hallifax history, sheesh.

    Sad I had to miss Knowledge, my second favorite event. Bad day to be stuck at a kid's birthday party. Hope everyone else had fun.
