Please explain the black widow/quake/Hawkeye syngergy

I realized I may have made a mistake in the sense her sig ability allows 15% more for science champs. So it goes from 70 to 85, not 70x1.15.

Either way the question stands and is still completely valid.

It is and you're correct with your assumptions but regardless of synergies you cant get it to 100% anymore

So what's the max?

they haven't confirmed and even with that synergy against 5* spiderman in map 6 he was still evading

70x1.15+15=95.5
BW's signature ability accuracy is already 100% her potency is 70/85% which is what is boosted so the HE synergy won't affect it.

I know You were thinking of bw, it seems she might be bugged out right now.

@CoatHang3r the synergies are:

Quake and Hawkeye - +15% AA for all champions
Quake and BW - +15% to AA and Buff duration for Quake and BW only

Add to that BW sig 99 having 69.99% AA reduction, plus 15% against science.

How does the HE synergy not affect it?

I was under the impression it was just a flat 15% for each one. Been trying some fights with the team and haven't procced anything yet? Need some mod to figure this out lol

So you're saying that the ability accuracy increase doesn't effect her sig ability?

This is confusing af

Glad we're having this convo before the event comes out. Let's keep it going so we can get some admin input.

Yeah because I have only recently gotten a sig 99 BW and quake. Haven't had a hunch of time to say this for sure.

So this is what I believe it is:
The 15% increase is not added to it is a % increase on the existing % e.g.

I could believe that. But with science class bonus wouldn't that get her to 100%?

with Science and Mutant base stats, but I think they impact it differently as I have also seen spidey evade BW when she has Quake and HE in toe

Even if I calulate the Quake and HE increase % off the Base 69.99% it is still over 100%

That's what I want to believe

Yes there was a discussion I participated in after 12.0 where a consensus was reached based on the Quake spotlight thread from the old forums; there is a post from dev.

Some examples:

- "Potency" means the overall strength of the status effect. A stun will last longer, and have higher chance to activate if not already at 100%. That means Quake's aftershock charges will deal more damage, have higher chance to stun the opponent and so on. Blackwidow's subtlety is also affected by this if you don't already have it at signature level 99.

Meanwhile, Hawkeye's synergy works for the entire team that you bring. That one just affects the accuracy of status effects. That means abilities like Hawkeye's Hemorrhage also status effects like Black Panther's CW Armor ups will trigger more often. Hope you guys have fun with this new synergy!

@Noobeeus There is also the potency from the Q BW synergy which is the one at play for BWs SA.

Can you elaborate on the whole "BW subtlety is also affected by this if you don't already have it at sig 99"? I'm not following that.

@Kronos987654321
That was written when BW still had 100% at SA99, so if you were below SA99 the potency portion of the syngery would boost her SA.

Well that's a bit disappointing.

So if you're fighting a spiderman, you get 85x1.15 for the potency synergy which is 97.75%?

Still good enough I guess!

So since the cap is now at ~70% then why wouldn't these boost it to old SA99?

Fairly certain all modifiers apply to the base percentage.

The synergy is multiplicative (70x1.15) and the SA ability is additive/flat (70+15). Modifiers work off the base value. 70x1.15+15=95.5.

If you want 100% need a 5* Quake for the extra 15% synergy. And even then it would be 70x1.3=91 unless you were up against science 70x1.3+15=106

Got you! Thanks. Well you could bring a 4* and 3* quake right? Don't need a 5* lol. It's good to know you can get her above 100 in that situation!

Very useful info you've provided.

The 3* does not have the required synergy with BW.

My mistake, 3* quake doesn't have the synergy. So only the 4* and 5*.

I guess I'll live with 95% for BW lol
