Ranged AS?

[Edaarin]

Am I calculating something wrong? I'm using a 5x crossbow and 4x arrows, my bolt AS should be 375

144 ranks in ranged
144 ranks in ambush
144 ranks in percep
25 dexterity bonus

Figure in percep/ambush bonus is capped at 2x per level, so 142 ranks in each effectively.

So it should be 244 + (142 + 142 - 40)/4 + 25 base, right? And +45 for weapon? Comes out to 244 + 61 + 25 + 45 = 375, but for some reason it's only coming out to 365 for me.

I thought you only got bonuses for perception and ambush for ranks over 20. Would that do it? (I'm not doing anymore math today, stupid Physics)

[Zir]

(((Perception Ranks - 40) + (Ambush Ranks - 40))/4)

So 244 + (51) +25 + 45 = 365

Was pretty sure that it's after a combined 40 ranks that you started seeing +1 per every 2 ranks of both

I don't know how you guys do this. I train best I can but when it comes to decifering the math I wouldn't know if it was wrong or not. What is an easy formula to understand?

I know as vs ds and all that. I think :P
