I posted this in the monk forum but I thought maybe some Rogues would be interested in this or could offer some input.

I wrote a script that keeps track of how many of opening (tier 1) jab tier up. I've been running it against zombies (23) from 18 to 24, and thought I'd pass along the results and maybe get some feedback from other open UAC users. So each result at averaged from at least 300 opening jabs. Aimed jabs were all to the head. I'm 1x ambushing and somewhere around 1.5x CM. I haven't been able to figure out how to capture and store the end-rolls from these jabs. If someone wants to give me a magic lich line, I'd be appreciative. Then someone who's good with the maths might be able to look a little deeper into these numbers.

20:
unaimed - 60.02%
aimed -64.42%

21:
unaimed - 60.02%
aimed - 65.28%

22:
unaimed - 70.88%
aimed - 70.29%

23:
unaimed - 70.66%
aimed - 74.44%

24:
unaimed - 80.93%
aimed - 80.00%

Some observations: I tried to pay particular attention to what happened when I had an and eye hand or arm injury. It seems injuries have to impact the chance to tier up, though I didn't often hunt with any level 2 wounds so I can't speak to that. Knocking over the zombie with Force Projection (1207) also didn't seem to make any difference. As you can see, whatever mechanic controlling jabs seems to change in 5% increments. Probably the most interesting thing I noticed was that the rank 4 jab critical to the head (Minor strike to head puts the [target] momentarily off-balance) tiered up more than the rank 3 or the rank 5 critical.

Questions: Does the jab tier based merely on the end-roll or is there a level component? Why do aimed jabs tier more often, but not consistently? Would aiming at another body part tier more often?

Any ideas or impressions?

Well it has been stated that there is a level component to tier up chances and your data definitely supports it. Also seems to be just a 5% increments for aimed jabs and not unaimed, you'd think they'd have the same chances.

Yeah or at least be consistent. I'd like to keep the 5% bonus on aimed jabs if i could figure out where it went.
