Recycler Efficiency Skill

Good Evening,

It appears that the Recycler Efficiency Skill is not correctly applying the buff to recycling: The tooltip indicates that you receive a 2%/lvl increase, however I have found the following to be actual:

• while using a 40% recycler at Bandit, with max Recycler Efficiency skill it indicates that the recycler efficiency has been changed to 44%
• while using a 50% recycler at Oxums, with max Recycler Efficiency skill it indicates that the recycler efficiency has been changed to 55%

Thanks.

Are you basing this on the UI value that the recycler shows? I believe this is client side the last time I checked. Even if the value of the entity is changed, the client will still show it's default value.

Maybe this will help:

Please forgive my horrible freehand circles

Yeah that's what I mentioned in my response before. The efficiency number you have circled on the recycler UI is set by the client, not the server, so we can't change the value with a plugin.

Here is a way you can confirm it's working:
- Respec your skill or unload the plugin.
- Recycler an item like burlap trousers and note how much you get back from it. Burlap trousers should give you 10 cloth or something back with 50% efficiency.
- Set the skill to 0.2 per level instead of 0.1 in the config. This is equal to 10% per level.
- Reload the plugin
- Make sure you max out the skill, and that it says you are getting a 50% bonus.
- Access the recycler from your picture (the one with 50%), and recycle the same item and compare the amounts you received.

Ok, thank you will try...the chat message is misleading though, as it says 55% instead of 60%.

Sorry I had to re-orientate myself with this one lol. It's multaplicative.
For example, if you have a 10% bonus in the skill, it increases the recyclers base efficiency by 10% of that value.
For example:
Recycler with 50% efficiency, and you have 10% on your skill. This would increase the 50% efficiency by 10%, which would be a total of 55%.

The percentage is applied to the recyclers number. If you wanted to bring a recycler from 50% to 100% efficiency, you would need to add a 100% total buff value to the skill (0.2 per level).

Ok, that makes sense, thanks for looking into this for me.

Cheers!
