Lifmunk Effigy fix request

[Amongus]

Currently there is a bug in the game, where collecting the Lifmunk effigies and increasing the capture rate, actually decreases it (literally the opposite of what we want)

I'm starting this thread hoping it gets the devs attention and they'll fix it asap. leave a +1 and keep it at the top.

EDIT: This has now been fixed in patch 1.4.1

I was noticing the same and looked it up and can't find any video disproving this. I regret leveling mine.

Same, I went out specifically looking out for effigies and now don't feeling like capturing pals because it's a big waste of spheres.

ASAP capture power lvl 10 legendary sphere target shocked iam lvl 45 target is lvl 40 12% chance REALLY???? ultra sphere 2% hyper 0,15% UNPALYABLE total gamebreaking bug

95% chance of capturing lv 41 Ibushi with legendary sphere and it proceed to escape from the sphere ......6 times in a row and not even a single shaking .....

Same problem here. I thought that it was intended that the higher your level, the more difficult everything becomes

Oh so thats why when I threw the ball and it said "100% capture chance" it still escaped lol.

It's not a percentage chance to capture. That 95% is how close you are to capturing.

It doesnt matter if you have 1% or 95 % . The ball need to shake 2 times before the pal finally give up . That number show up when the ball hit the pal first time show the chance and then it turn to capturing progress.

Literally just confirmation bias. Effigies work perfectly fine. Ya'll never played a game with RNG before, huh?

Oh, it's not just about the number showing up.
It actually decrease the chance of capturing them, here's someone who did a full on statistical analysis: https://www.reddit.com/r/Palworld/comments/1ahk01e/a_statistical_analysis_on_the_lifmunk_effigies/

you could just leave the game installed and not play it? It's only 20 GB after all.

Actually there were posts online with testing. It's arguable if the sample size was big enough but it did look fishy. At least weird enough to warrant a look into it.

I know right, the capture rate not increasing is fine, but to actually have it decrease is very sad.
