Weak hits.

Hi,  i'm  hoping  that  a  mod  can  confirm  the  percentage  chance  to  get  a  weak  hit.  It  is  documented  to  be  35%.  Do  i  have  that  right  and  also  are  there  any  conditions  (  i.e  stats  )  that  can  affect  this  chance.  I  have  jun  run  Ogryn  tribes  crypt  and  i  have  a  few  negative  affinty  enemies  in  there  and  i  got  weak  hit  after  weak  hit,  sometimes  4-5  in  a  row.  At  a  35%  chance  this  seems  very  unlikely  but  it  happens  often.  Septimus  has  a  30%  chance  to  extend  debuffs  and  that  is  only  a  5%  chance  difference  but  there  is  no  way  he  extends  debuffs  as  often  as  i  get  a  weak  hit.  Has  the  weak  hit  %  chance  been  changed?

I can confirm there's a 35% chance of weak hit against weak affinity. It hasn't been changed (and I highly doubt it will). Usually we tend to notice things more often when we're paying attention to them, so they seem like they happen more often. No matter if you have 100% of Crit. Chance, you'll always have a  35% against different affinty in more than 1/3 of the times.

Maybe this video will help you shed some light on how all that affinity, weak/strong hits work

Hmm, strange but my observations are very similar lately. Tayrel seems to have a 45% chance actually to get a normal hit, as pure math shows he has Weak Hits between 55-60% against Fire Knight boss (Force affinity).

Usually, 10/17-18 hits are weak :(

Anyone else can add her/his observation on this matter?

Are you sure you really observed weak hits and not normal hits? Weak hits have the text "Weak" written above the damage number, both in white. Normal hits show the damage number in red, critical hits in yellow.

I just ask, because in the last thread about this topic here in the forum the threadstarter confused weak and normal hits, here.

Well, all debuffs failed because of weak hits, so I had paid close attention to them. I changed the speed of the battle to x1 and started counting. And I counted a lot of whites. More than 1 per 3 hits.

It doesn't feel like 35% at all.

I've rolled less than 10 on a 20-sided die at least 50 times in a row.  That didn't feel right at all.  I've rolled 100% on percentile dice 3 times in a row.  That's when it felt right.
