"Inaccuracy only exists without power/duration readings and will increase with skill but almost always remain to some degree." (from Analyze)

I have no idea what the first half of that sentence is trying to say, but I find it unlikely that inaccuracy increases with skill.--Antendren 15:24, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

The first bit means that if you get both the power and duration readings, they will be accurate. Note: I'm not claiming this to be correct, although I suspect it is. I'm just 'translating' it for you.
The second bit is now fixed.--Evran 15:44, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
But that's completely inconsistent with the claim "[inaccuracy will] always remain to some degree."
No. Its saying that if there's innacuracy because you don't get full power/duration messaging, then that innacuracy will decrease with skill but never completely go away.
Another way of saying it is that if you don't get power/duration messaging you will 'always' have some degree of inaccuracy. If you do get power/duraction messaginc you will 'always' be accurate.--Evran 16:13, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
Okay, now the next question. What is there to be accurate about, other than power/duration? I suspect that this was intending to say "inaccuracy only exists within the power/duration readings", but, like the second half of the sentence, it was reversed.
