A few questions about mechanics and numbers

Parasaurolophus

I've been playing for several years and I still don't know:

657 Critical Chance, is how much in %?
1096 recourse, 129 dmg and 1487 penetration - is how much dmg in %.
What is the initial chance of applying status effects?
How is critical damage resistance calculated?

Nobody knows? Srsly?

Wish I could help out. But out of your questions the only one I can answer for you is Crit Chance; if I did my math correctly when I was rebuilding my main from a blank slate -

219 pnts of Crit Chance is equal to 1% Crit Chance.

So when a line of Crit Chance on armor sets says 657 Critical Chance that comes to 219 x 3. Making each 657 Critical Chance line adding 3% Crit Chance to the build.

If you haven't checked out the Unofficial Elder Scrolls wiki, I suggest you do. They have a build editor page that allows for theory crafting templates and there is available information on how these values are calculated.

To see the impact of stats on tooltip damage calculations, I recommend UESP. Here is an example for a bow skill and you can play around with max stats and weapon/spell damage or look at the actual formula to see their effects:

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's asking the community for assistance.

Thank you for your understanding
