I can get 500 EE scrolls if necessary and mass produce 500 of an item to scroll, with say i guess a staff, 700 100% scrolls to use on all of them. If after the first 100, the probability doesn't seem to be near 80%, (say 50% pass/fail) why continue? Double it, say the trial works on 70% in 200 trials, at what point do you stop and say "the rate truly is 80%" ? If 4 out of 5 work, that's truly 80% ... if 400 out of 500 work, that's 80% .. what happens when the probability is different per user? What if I fail 40 out of 50 and you pass 45 out of 50? Which one of us gets to determine the pass/fail rate of the scroll as seen by the community?
The one who did the test for accuracy to within 1%? o_o More data = more information = more accuracy. 500 should be a decent comparison to find the "true" rate, but why not more?
