[1.05] Cipher - potential issue with Max Focus capacity

[Insolentius]

1.05 cut the starting focus from 1/2 to 1/4 max focus. My level 9 Grieving Mother has 37 starting focus, which means her max focus is 150 (I've seen it climb over 100 in battles).

 

Is that the way it should be? According to this - http://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Cipher - her max focus should be 55 + 10 from the Greater Focus talent. 150 at level 9 seems way too much.

 You have the equations and/or order of operations wrong. Here are the equations for max focus and start focus for 1.05:

 

BaseMaxFocus = 20+level*10

ActualMaxFocus=BaseMaxFocus+GreaterFocus

StartFocus = (BaseMaxFocus/4)+GreaterFocus

 

Edit: in case you were wondering, here are the equations for 1.04

 

BaseMaxFocus = 20+level*10

ActualMaxFocus=BaseMaxFocus+GreaterFocus

StartFocus = BaseMaxFocus/2

Cool. When did they change focus gain from 5 to 10 per level? ... or was the Wiki always wrong?

The wiki is always wrong.
