    It doesn't matter what the secret math is behind the scenes. Obviously there is a penalty of some sort that makes 115% less than 100%. The point is that the penalty is not reflected in the calculation Evony shows on screen.

    If 115% of gems at star level 12 is actually 80% chance of success, then the screen should say 80% chance of success. You should be able to keep adding gems to get to 100% or more. People spend money on gems and deserve some honesty about what they are PAYING for.

    Precisely...As it currently appears in game, the representation that a chance of success is greater than 100% is materially misleading.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Rota again.

    At very low levels, if you choose 4 flawless gems, the percentage exceeds 100%. 15% per flawless gem added onto the base for that level.
