Numbers arn't right

ok, when I activate a power, for instance, Sprint....(just for example)...and I right click the icon for it under the health bar, it says I gain +24.51 mph and +4.40 ft. However, when I look in combat attributes, it says sprint only gives me +10.19 mph, and +0.40 ft. Why is there a such a difference in numbers... Am I really getting the +24.51 mph or the +10.19 mph..... And if this is messed up, then are other powers messed up. There is no section in the combat attributes for accuracy, just accuracy bonus. However, according to the set bonuses, I have 4 sets that give me 9% on one and 15% on each of the other 3 sets. But my accuracy bonus on combat Attributes are "Ultimate Accuracy Bonus +0.45x", and "Large Accuracy Bonus +0.18x", for a total of 1.63x. Whats going on?

The number shown in Combat Attributes is right. The little popup info from under the status bar hasn't been accurate for a long time. People have been complaining about it for a while. Just ignore it for now.

As for your set bonuses.. you don't get 9% accuracy, you get a bonus of 9% of your base accuracy. Base Accuracy is 1.00x, so your bonus would only be 0.09x. It looks like you have 2 of those Large bonuses, not just 1, so that's giving you a bonus of 0.18x. A 15% bonus is 0.15x, so 3 Ultimates are combining to give you 0.45x.

1.00 + 0.18 + 0.45 = 1.63

The icons under the health bar report only the buff number from that power, and in the case of flight, is completely wrong.

See here:

Travel Power Status Icons

When you right click a travel power icon under your health bar the 'real numbers' that display are not necessarily understandable or reflect your actual Speed. However, the 'real numbers' concerning travel powers that display under the Combat Attributes and Monitor windows are correct. Here's a breakdown of the numbers shown by the travel icons:
  • Sprint: The Running Speed shown is the base running speed plus the buff the Sprint power is adding. It does not include other RunSpeed buffs the character may have.
  • SuperSpeed: The Running Speed shown is the base running speed plus the buff the SuperSpeed power is adding. It does not include other RunSpeed buffs the character may have. Since this may be over the RunSpeed cap, it can be a much higher speed than what you are actually running.
  • Flight: The Flying Speed shown includes the base flying speed an extra three times, making that number ridiculously high. This happens more than likely because, internally, there are an extra three buffs/debuffs to flying speed which normally cancel each other out and each one is adding in the base FlySpeed to the final buff equation.
  • Hover: The Flying Speed shown includes the base flying speed an extra two times, making that number ridiculously high. This happens more than likely because, internally, there are an extra two buffs/debuffs to flying speed equation.

Base RunSpeed is 14.32 mph. The buff to RunSpeed from Sprint is 10.19 mph. Thus, the Sprint icon under the health bar shows 24.51 (14.32 + 10.19).

Base JumpHeight is 4 ft. Sprint is giving you a JumpHeight buff of .4 ft. Thus the icon shows 4.4 ft.

Well, 3 sets at 15% does equal 45% (.45). However, if you do have 4 sets of 9% (.09), then that should be a bonus of 36% and not 18%. So, that's screwy. Were you exemplared at the time and two of those sets lost thier bonuses because you were more than three levels under the level of the IOs in the set?

You're base Accuracy modifier is 1 (100%). You multiply that by your chance ToHit (I'm simplifying things a bit). So, the game gives you a 75% chance to hit an even-level minion (with no other buffs or debuffs in play). You multiply that by 1 (100%), and your final chance to hit is 75% (.75 x 1.0).

With your IO Set Accuracy buffs, you Accuracy is now 1.63. Which means that your chance to hit an even level minion is now .75 x 1.63 = 1.22 or 122%. Of course, the game clamps that down to a maximum 95% to hit.

I think he meant it this way..
I have 4 sets that give me Accuracy:
9% bonus from one Large set
15% bonus from 3 Ultimates.

But I agree with you, he doesn't have just 1 of those, because a bonus of 0.18 reflects 2 Large sets of 9% each. He might have just missed the extra one on his Set Bonus /info.
