I just nailed 3 protects in a row What are the chances of

>>29408059
Like 11.

1/3 * 1/9 I remember.

>>29408059
It's 100% the first time and then half each consecutive time so 1*1/2*1/4=1/8 or 12.5%

>>29408059
First has a 100% chance of success
Second has 50%
Third has 25%

1*.5*.25=.125, so a 12.5% chance, or 1/8. Not that crazy.

>>29408079
If it cuts itself in thirds instead of halves then that'd be right, so 1 in 27. Still not absurd.

>>29408059
You have a 100% to succeed on t1, 33.3% on t2, and 11.1% on t3, so about a 3.6% chance

>>29408119
You sis the math wrong. 1/8 is the probability of just the successful third one. see >>29408161

>>29408161
Protect has a 1/3 success rate from its previous attempt, starting at 100

basic math is hard guys

100% chance of you being a huge faggot for even trying to land three Protects.

>>29408312
Fuck off pomf

>>29408059
3.7%

>>29408312
>>29408249
Ah OK, so 1/27th, or 3.7%

>>29408324
Can confirm, the math checks out.

Up to gen V it was 0.125
now it's just 0.037
