## Chance Modifiers {% columns %} {% column width="50%" %} All wild HA chance modifiers are applied **additively** to the base chance: $$ \text{HA chance} = \frac{1 + \sum \text{boost}}{\text{base chance}} $$ Example (55% boost with a 10% boost): $$ \frac{1 + 0.55 + 0.1}{300}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{181.81} \approx 0.55% $$ {% hint style="info" %} When fully stacked, the maximum possible boost is currently **+105%**, resulting in **0.683%** chance per wild spawn {% endhint %} {% endcolumn %} {% column width="50%" %}
