So, I just lost a pvp match because I have 101% chance of casting crow (85% casting chance of crow and 16% accuracy bonus from my armor) and I fizzled on scarecrow. It's bad enough he doesn't do any damage to people with resistance, but he fizzles too when I have 75 health left?
Can you somehow explain to me how I even fizzle with this?
I think that I'm starting to understand the boost percentages.
Now I have a similar spell called steal charm, and it has 80% base accuracy, but with my grand gear boosts, it hasn't fizzled yet, at least, not of the times I've used it with my grand gear on.
Now, I'm thinking that the highest accuracy in the game besides the 100% accuracy spells like fairy is 95% accuracy, at least, that's the highest accuracy boost in the bazaar, so I'm thinking that's the highest accuracy a spell can go with accuracy boosts.

Lol, bad situation to be in. Maybe it was a glitch or something because that seems kinda impossible to fizzle when you have a 100% chance that your going to cast that spell a.ok. Or maybe.......ALIENS HAVE INVADED YOUR COMPUTER!!!!!!! Yah, probably not......
Mods explain why this is possible. Cause 100% is the highest percent that you can get to to be well, completed and 100% sure that it will be 100% ,becuase it is highest of all percentages that you can get to. Wait did that make sense to you at all? In other words...you cant get higher than 100%, its the limit. So over the limit would mean you wouldnt fizzle more than you would if it was 100%. But wait, you wouldnt fizzle at all at 100% so more than that is impossible to be at so how could it- oh nevermind you know what i mean.
Unless your opponent put the -40% accuracy on your next spell. THen you would be able to fizzle.
so you have a 16% bonus. What is 16% of 85? 13.6. lets round it down becuae this is a game and they would do something like that. so now it is 13. what is 13 plus 85? 98. Therefore you dont have an accuracy of 101% you have 98%.
Actually its 85% on the card spell and 16% on your casting the card. The card has an 85% accuracy to hit and your accuracy is 16% to throw. The problem comes in when you try to add the two together. Yours is for casting and the cards is for hitting.
The fizzling has to be DECREASED. Its ridiculous to fizzle 2, 3, or 4 times in a row. Thats rounds in succession, no matter what the precentages are. I never see the enemies fizzle that much. You're trying to end the fight and move on. Or your health is low and you depend on a spell to WORK. But no it doesn't. It seems to me the fizzling has increased. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!
And as far as the fairy being 100% accurate? NO it is NOT! Thats a LIE. I have had several fizzle on me before. In this game nothing is 100%.
You KI people have increased what it costs to play this game in certain ways. DECREASE the fizzling!!
It is ridiculous that my triton fizzled 3 TIMES in a row during a battle! :( Kings Isle needs to do something about that and give me back the fourteen arena point I lost. That's happening to me and my friends and it NEEDS to be fixed! :(

Your storm and your complaining about fizzling? Fizzling is as much as part of life for a storm wizard as breathing.
Ok here is what might of happened. I recently discovered this treasure card called Cloak. It hides traps, shields, and blades and since Black mantle is considered one of those, they could have hid it and you dont see the spell go on and activate so basically they decreased your accuracy in secret :( Not fair I know but hey you could be using the same thing and also you could use accuracy treasure cards on your spells for more accuracy if you wanted :)
It seems that after the pet update, you don't so much count the accuracy as cross your fingers and hope for the best.
The NCPs are throwing fire and storm spells and seem to have quite a bit more success at that than previously. Did they get an accuracy boost or something? Maybe they got ours... :(
If you don't want to fizzle, don't play the elemental schools...they are meant to fizzle a lot, yes, even 3 or 4 times in a match. You accepted that when you chose a school with such a high fizzle rate.
If you don't want to fizzle take life.
If you do the stats with the fizzle rates per the schools, storm still does the most damage per pip.
With grand equipment, my storm fizzles less than my Life, Death or Balance grands. When it gets down to it, Balance fizzles way to much for an 85% accuracy school.
yea since the pet update my blizzard spell fizzles ALOT! i dont know why did you change accuracy but it does not show up on the card or just a bug. it just gets annoying!
Way too much math here LOL. And I still dont understand the fizzle rates, but the fizzles have increased since the updates.
