Chinchironin
TLDR: Cursor position matters a lot, aim for the middle of the bowl.
A chinchironin roll is determined by 3 variables.
- RNG
- Cursor Position
- "RNG Salt"
When determining a roll, the game goes through a sequence of checks as follows:
- isTripleWin
- isTripleLose
- isDoubleWin
- isDoubleLose
- isPiss
- standardRoll.
Last thing to mention is that you can still get a double/triple with a standard roll, if the roll naturally hits 111, 456, or whatever special roll. And once again, if it's Tai Ho rolling the game just rerolls.
Rune Elemental Resistances
Equipped runes actually give characters the corresponding resistance. So if a character with a Lightning rune equipped gets hit with lightning damage, they will take reduced damage compared to not having a Lightning rune equipped. Soul Eater also gives resistances to all elements to my knowledge, it's why McDohl tanks magic damage so well. I don't know the mechanics here that well, never really dug into it. It was discovered in a speedrun where I removed Kirkis's Wind rune to sell it and then had him die to Neclord in a spot he normally survives comfortably. Reviewing the video I found he took double damage from Neclord's Wind attacks compared to when he had the Wind rune equipped. Soul Eater resistance was guessed from McDohl taking less damage than Luc (with a Resurrection rune equipped) from Neclord's attacks, even though he had about 50-60 less MGC.
