Confusing card description

[Teot]

Thanks all. It's all in the numbers =D

[Former-GM-Vanadis]

and since Ragnarok only measures durations in seconds

Not quite, almost everything internally is using miliseconds, I can't think of any part that uses seconds. Seconds are way too long to work with from a programmers point of view.

+1 to Vanadis

...especially when trying to use dc motors as servomotors >_>

[Dynamic Thrust]

Well, I was referring to durations(except counter-attacks), but yes, you're right. So what's with the card description?

[Général_Argos]

the last part means 0.1% chance to get 50% cast reduction and 30 flee for 5 seconds.

Looking back in a thread never hurt ;F

[Dynamic Thrust]

Umm, I meant why does it say an hour on the card. I read her post.

Call it a translation error, or an idea that got changed at the last minute. In essence, a goof up.

More like eA just didn't change the item description. Happened with Spiritual Ring where they accidentially gave 1 bonus dex instead of 2 (although item descriptions says "2.") There are many other hats with improper effects too, like peco hairband, atroce's sword which we recently fixed. There are still a lot more lingering around out there though probably =(

OMG GM Ayu isn't ignoring me
hehe

thank you vanadis for clearing up the confusion about the 5000 number, it is indeed in milliseconds as seconds would be absurd to any programmer (being a programmer myself, these things are essential to know =) though it would really be fun if it were done in nanoseconds >.> =P but 500,000,000 is just too big a number to work with )
