You've 'almost' got your 10k busting award, you should care!

OT ---
You busted Engineering out of jail.
You busted Ogi24 out of jail.
You busted shrider out of jail.
You busted curlytops out of jail.
You busted Setini out of jail.
You busted Motorbike500 out of jail.
You busted giftedchild out of jail.

Jailed busting the next then

Use 33 nerve?
Result: You come out of the hole on the other side of the jail fence, you run back home.

All done within a couple of mins - Seems OK tbh?

No, the busting chance didn't change.
I'm in a lawfirm from several months and I always average 19-20 busts a day.
When appears a success chance of 70% and above, I can't be jailed.
When I wake up in the morning I can bust 5 players in a row.

Self busting nerve cost is based on how large your nerve bar is and whether you've done the law education.

33 seems to indicate his nerve bar is 100 and he has done the education to bring it down to a third, from half.

I've recently got to 2k busts and I feel like it's getting easier to bust high lvl players like you. I still shy away from long hours high levels but I've managed to bust some lvl 80-90 that were busted for over 5 hours busteds. I'm guessing you just got some newbs trying to bust you or people who already busted too many people. May also simply be bad rng
Tyrion [1967379]
Yeah, it's like Gorgonzola said, based on your total nerve bar.

(not your NNB only, also any extras from faction, company or merits)

You can test the difference when your faction changes crime branch to warring ones at 60 NNB.

We don't have their side of the story. Maybe those people blew their (hidden) busting cooldown and tried their luck anyway.
For example:
Do you want to try and break scooooter out of jail? It will cost you 2 nerve.
You determine that the chance of success is 0%.Yes No


Sometimes, when I see odds >30%, I just shout "YOLO!" and click on Yes

Seems to be if i try and bust anyone over level 25 i fail although i haven't done many busts so that probably doesn't help
DaDood [2204689]
More recently, there have been more people who are in jail for failing to bust someone (including me).
Either something about busting changed or a lot of people are suddenly overextending themselves. The former seems more likely.
Hopslam [795412]
Why would there be changes to busting?

i have noticed a lot more people busting, guessing they are going for the merits

think it is just more people busting and more people overdoing it
