Precision

Precision is a statistic generated by the equipped Scanner module, and can be further boosted by substats on any other module or turret.

It defines how precise the ship's attacks are, which is relevant for critical hit calculations. The higher the level of the gear equipped on the ship, more Precision is required to maintain the same critical hit chance.

All turrets are subject to the same rule - thus having high precision on a mining ship will cause it to cause critical hits (and mine more ore) with increased frequency.

Precision and Critical chance

At Level 1, 10 Precision equals 1.86% Critical Chance
At Level 30, 10 Precision equals 0.14% Critical Chance

There is always a base Critical chance of 3%. Skills that increase the Critical chance will always count towards the base value.

Example: A Skill gives 3% the base Critical chance, calculates to 6 (3% base + 3% from the skill)

Note: Precise calculations how Precision translates towards Critical Chance are not available at this time.
