Diablo – Is the Spirit (or any other ability resource) rounded up/down

diablo-3

I am looking at the Monk's The Guardian's Path passive ability, which generates 25% more spirit when using a 2H weapon.

My default attacks give me 6 spirit per attack, so how much spirit does this passive give me?

  • 7.5 spirit per attack (there's a hidden decimal point)
  • 7 spirit per attack (rounded down)
  • 8 spirit per attack (rounded up)

I think if they rounded the numbers then this is very inaccruate, so it seems more likely there is a hidden decimal even though my spirit bubble does not show decimal places.

But if it is not rounded, then what happens when you try to cast a 20 cost skill when you have 19.5 Spirit, and your spirit bubble shows 20 Spirit? Unlike the other classes, Spirit does not go up or down over time (unless you have spirit regen skills/abilities)

Best Answer

The decimal point is hidden, but the value is still there.

I tested with a monk with Guardian's Path, a 2-Hand Staff and no resource regen equips. I used up all my spirit.

Setup

Then I hit something.

7 spirit

Then I hit something again.

15 spirit

I continued this experiment through 150 and the results were: 7. 15. 22. 30. 37, 45, 52, 60, 67, 75, 82, 90, 97, 105, 112, 120, 127, 135, 142, 149, 150.

So there's your answer.
