== Chest Finding Calculation ==

# Most activities have a roll on one or more chest tables.
#* In general, an activity that has a skill with a level requirement has a chance to give a chest for that skill.
# Chest finding percentage bonuses from attributes is calculated.
# These bonuses are added to the base chest finding multiplier that you have.
# The base chest drop chance (.4% or 1/250) is multiplied by the calculated chest finding multiplier.
# The modified chest finding odds are rolled on a loot table.

Note that we can quickly get a value by simply adding the total percent chest finding to 1 and dividing by 250.

=== Example with No Chest Finding Bonuses ===
If we want to go [[Forest Foraging]] with no equipment, and we complete a foraging action.

# Forest foraging is able to give a [[Foraging Chest]] roll in its loot tables.
# We have no equipment, so we have no percent chest finding bonus.
#* Chest finding bonus = 0.00
# We added our chest finding bonus to the base chest finding multiplier that you have.
#* 1.00 chest finding multiplier + 0.00 chest finding bonus = 1.00 calculated chest finding multiplier
# We multiply the base chest drop chance by the calculated chest finding multiplier.
#* 0.004 &times; 1.00 = 0.004 modified chest finding odds
# The modified chest finding odds are rolled on a loot table.
#* Our 0.004 modified chest finding odds gives us a 1/250 chance per action completed to receive a [[Foraging Chest]].

=== Example with a Chest Finding Bonus ===
If we want to go [[Forest Foraging]] with a good quality [[Steel Sickle]], and we complete a foraging action.

# Forest foraging is able to give a [[Foraging Chest]] roll in its loot tables.
# Our good Steel Sickle gives a +13.0% chest finding
#* Chest finding bonus = 0.13
# We added our chest finding bonus to the base chest finding multiplier that you have.
#* 1.00 chest finding multiplier + 0.13 chest finding bonus = 1.13 calculated chest finding multiplier
# We multiply the base chest drop chance by the calculated chest finding multiplier.
#* 0.004 &times; 1.13 = 0.00452 modified chest finding odds
# The modified chest finding odds are rolled on a loot table.
#* Our 0.00452 modified chest finding odds gives us a 1.13/250 chance per action completed to receive a [[Foraging Chest]].
