Block Rate Testing (from Reddit)

Said testing.

I'm not good enough at math to make a whole lot of use out of his data, but maybe someone here feels like interpreting it. The graph looks reasonably linear to me and seems to roughly comply with the generally accepted theory that 10 block rate = 1% block chance.

What really confuses me is how Bulwark affects block rate, because I've seen a few tests now that came to conflicting conclusions about whether the effect is additive or multiplicative, and this guy's test so far has proven inconclusive. The block rate he gets is too high for Bulwark to be multiplicative but too low for it to be an additive 60% (which would totally fuck over shields with a block rate over ~350 based on this data).

I'm paranoid about downloading random files from the internet. Anybody wanna dump the raw testing data or upload it to google? Sample size is always my first concern when it comes to tests.

I find it interesting how the block rate of 124 yielded the highest Parry Chance and the 2nd highests of fraction parried. To me that just doesn't add up.

A sample size that's too low will usually result in data that contradicts itself or is too far from the norm.
