Effects per scientist

[s0830887]

You'll need more scientists to cap.

Thanks Bishop. You gonna reveal the exact caps, or you want us to discover them for ourselves?

Madchess, where you at??

[Bishop]

you'll see them in 6 hours :)

[Madchess]

really? I mean really, really?

Hope it was not to much of a problem with names and stuff, got to 144 last age and aiming to try and max out this age too. The faster you get to max, the longer you get to play with the maxed science.

[Madchess]

oh and someone else is gooing to calculate food sci, I'm UD this age

[NighT]

As Sage (rounded??):
40.6 alchemy (29 novices, so 1.4 per sage-novice)
0.7 tools
0.4 housing
7 food
0.4 mil
3.5 thief
4.2 magic

So to cap:
15 Alchemy profs
20 Tools profs
25?? housing
20 Food profs
25?? mil
20 Thief profs
21 Magic profs (20.8)
Total: 146 profs.

Not sure about Housing/Military. 0.4 / 1.4 = 0.2857.. So I have a feeling that's been rounded off somewhere. I'm going to guess it's 0.42 per sage-novice, so that's 0.3 / novice for other people. To cap 15% bonus = 25 scientists.

I got 3% per novice for channeling science. Assuming prof = 2 x novice like last age, that caps at 17 profs.

Channeling cap is 125%. You need 21 profs for that.

[Drys]

Yep. I can't read. Or bishop is just tricky and swapped channeling and crime on his list so it doesn't match the in-game order...

[Madchess]

I made that error in the other thread and had to edit it

[Sulimo]

So basically the effect per professor has only been adjusted for food (67% up) and decreased for thievery (17% down). Rest stayed the same, only the caps changed.

I really interpreted the 'changed caps along with effects of professors etc.' different.

[Shockwave]

Last age I maxxed out sci by end of age, and that was without the "increased rate for every tick i dont get one", so the doubling of the rate and increased starting scientists (by a lot) would naturally get me to max sci by mid age with the same scientist requirement.

lucky you. i was like 30 scientists or so short of maxxing. you were just lucky. the increased scientist production was def needed imo.

15 Alc prof for max
20 tools prof for max
25 housing prof for max
25 military prof for max
25 crime prof for max
25 channeling prof for max
Food i hav not applied any for early age to calc this but i would assume similar to the rest between 15-25 prof to max

[Bo To]

For crime is 20, for channeling is 21. Food is also 20.

[JusticeLeague]

Can I have the correct version? Assuming all scientist at professor level, how many to max out each category...

[s0830887]

So, it looks like so far we have confirmed:

15 alchemy
20 food
20 crime
21 channeling

I have 23 in pop atm, but they're split between grads and novices, and I'm sage, so the math is too complicated for my tiny bird brain to try figure out. BUT I don't think I have enough in pop to cap yet, so I think pop is >23 scientists. Will confirm when I know. I also imagine military works on the same numbers as pop.
