[INVESTIGATED - NO BUG]
Posted: Mon Jun 05, 2017 8:44 pm
I started a campaign with Hidden Potential turned on (default 35%) for the first time and I watched my starting crop of rookies stats to see who was getting lucky with their level ups. Either I am incredibly lucky, the standard Will progression described on UFOpaedia is incorrect or there is a bug in the Hidden Potential algorithm. I was mostly watching aim and hp, but I think one of my soldiers got 10 will on level up which isn't within 35% of the standard amount any class gains at Squaddie. Pretty sure every soldier got more than their share. I'm playing ironman, so I don't have a save I can go back to and confirm exact values, but I will record their LCPL lvl up carefully. Obviously "proving" it is bugged would require a much larger sample size to rule out the possibility I am just lucky, but I was wondering if maybe someone else had noticed this. A sanity check of the hidden potential level up algorithm might be warranted.
No, I am not running mods which modify soldier stats besides Long War.
