Thanks for the shoutout but while you were busy bragging about your giant trump hands online I was busy polishing and stacking this colossal pile of bell curves.

Let's talk about the Bell Curve in 1-62k Lightning damage then, a normal distribution that is continuous

There are more results near the center than on the outer edges, lmk if I'm wrong.

You could try actually logging into d2 and testing it for yourself instead of making guesses based on a skill you don't use and a high school statistics class you failed.

I've got a better forum-friendly subject. Lets talk about you dodging legen.

I'm not in the dueling mood lately, haven't dueled since early september, been busy. I'll gladly NvN him again one day though, he has to admit I outscored him in our 1v1's NvN by a slight margin.


And how do you suppose I should test 10'000 Lightning hits, for valid statistics, to prove there is a Bell Curve? In my mind, when there is an average, there is a tendency towards the norm, or the average, a regression towards the average. Although there might be exceptions to this such as uniform distributions, which are basically grouped together, etc, complexing nothing uselessly when there could be a simple beautiful Bell Curve around the Average.

And it was a 2nd year Statistics course at University.

Killing kermit and triwinning don't count, they're barely people and should have stuck with bvb.
Duel the person you made this thread to cry about.

Lol? Kermit and Triwinning are Well on Legen's tier, very comfortably too, on this tier. Triwinning's necro Lucifer actually outscored all of us 4 Necromancers in that 1v1 NvN game, it was tight on the top 3, Lucifer first, Poet second, Max third, and Lunatic basically losing all his duels lol, that's how I met him though, he's bad NvN but quite vicious on druid and is good nvd, he supposedly has a trapper and a bvc now too, he's from west, says he's even better on these chars. His druid is called Mutant. Kids in drewg's fpk were chanting "Mutant is God!" until I stepped in with my druid Junker on the other team, and basically handled the stomps accordingly, copecowboy early s/e, then shit was easy, thanks to dixhard's professional trapping and mindblasting. Swinger didn't do much, let me tell you that.

Now how about you, I'll get to duel you one day, hopefully you don't dodge. That's a lot of talk for never having dueled me.

LL ur a god

I can't tell if trolling or not (I know, shame on me...) but you do realize that the whole "Bell curve, tendency towards the norm" etc. thing won't work if you just do 10,000 Lightning hits and plot the damage of each, right? You would just get a flat (well, it would be flat it you did it infinitely many times at least) curve showing that the chance of getting a 1 damage hit would be exactly the same as any other damage, including 31,000 or 62,000 damage.
The concept of the normal distribution would work if you did 10,000 Lightning hits 10,000 times and plotted each "run" though.

Ex. You twice cast something with damage 1-2. The chance of the total damage being 2 would be 1/2^2 or 1/4, because you'd have to get exactly 1 damage two times in a row.
The chance of getting a total damage of 4 would also be 1/2^2 because you'd have to get 2 damage twice.
The chance of getting a total damage of 3, though, would be 1/2 because you could start with either a 1 or a 2 and still do 3 damage.

These are the possibilities with each damage of the cast separated by a comma:

1,1 = 2 damage total
2,1 = 3 damage total
1,2 = 3 damage total
2,2 = 4 damage total
