Ops is a term that refers to operations taken by spies and wizards.
- Espionage (spy-ops)
- Information gathering ops (info-ops): spy operations to gather information about other dominions.
- Offensive operations (black-ops): spy operations used to damage other dominions.
- Magic (spells, rarely used term wiz-ops)
- Information gathering spells (info-ops, although the term is mostly only used to refer to the espionage variant): spells cast to obtain information about other dominions and realms.
- Offensive operations (black-ops): spells cast to cause damage to other dominions.
Success Formulas
There are three formulas which determine the chance of success for ops. Attacker Ratio and Defender Ratio here refer to the relevant Spies Per Acre (SPA) or Wizards Per Acre (WPA) found on the Statistics page of your Advisor, and are
Info Ops
0.8^(2/((Your Ratio / Defender Ratio) * 1.4)^1.2))
Theft & Black Ops
0.7^(2/((Attacker Ratio / Defender Ratio) * 1.3)^1.2)
Examples
As a general idea of how often you should be successful, some examples of the success rate at any given type of operation are given below. Please keep in mind that these are probabilities, and that individual variance can and will affect you at various points in time. It is not a bug in the formula if you fail a 75% chance four times in a row; you merely got somewhat unlucky. Additionally, the ratios mentioned are relative to each other, i.e. 1 WPA to 0.5 WPA is the same as 2 WPA to 1 WPA, and include any bonuses or penalties you may have.
| Type of Op | Relative Ratios and Success | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Info Ops | 1:4 ratio: 20.7%
1:2 ratio: 50.4% 1:1 ratio: 74.2% 2:1 ratio: 87.8% |
Having half the ratio of your target means you can somewhat reliably get information on them, if you do not mind losing spies in the process. There's a maximum success chance of 98 %, so there's always some random fail chance. |
| Theft & Black Ops | 1:4 ratio: 1.3%
1:2 ratio: 30.2% 1:1 ratio: 59.4% 2:1 ratio: 79.7%. |
You usually want at near-equal ratios to attempt this. The maximum success for this type of op is 97 %, but you don't get there until you have well over 10x the opponent's ratio. |
Damage Reduction Formula
As of Round 31, damage from black ops is reduced based on the target's spy/wizard ratio.
Damage Reduction
DaysModifier = (0.025 * (DayInRound - 4) + 0.5
(Ratio / 2 / DaysModifier) * 100% with a max of 50% reduction at 0.5 on Day 4, 1.0 on Day 24, and 1.5 on Day 44
The damage reduction based on a dominion's ratio is additive with other damage reduction bonuses and caps at 80%. The ratio required to reach the cap of -50% scales linearly throughout the round (from 0.5 to 1.5).
