Each square has a list of Encounters, then each one has a chance. So if you're looking round a square with:
Encounter 1 - 5%
Encounter 2 - 5%
Encounter 3 - 50%
Then each "test" for if you get an Encounter theres a 60% chance you will get one in total, 50% chance of Encounter 3 and 5% chance it'll be #1 or #2.
Then zone difficulty plays its part in if you can skip them, harder zones are harder to skip.

Ok, so its not entirely dependent on "The Square" Itself the encounters in it seperately have their own difficulty?
Solar:
The square has difficulty, the Encounters have a seperate chance of "triggering"
Ganado:
Is outdoorsman skill linear with the chance to avoid an encounter?
By this I mean, is there a huge gap between 99% Outdoorsman and 100% Outdoorsman (which is what you said is needed to have a good chance to skip "easy" encounters), or would 99% and 100% be almost exactly the same?
You also said 100% outdoorsman to avoid easy encounters, and 180% to avoid the hardest encounters; what level would I need to get the highest chance to avoid any mid-level encounter, if such a thing exists. Or is there just a big gap between 100% outdoorsman and 180% outdoorsman, as well?
And lastly, would Ghoul Crazies be easy, mid-level, or hard encounter types? What outdoorsman would I need to be able to be able to best avoid those? Thanks. Edit: Okay I posted this after you posted your above topic, so I didn't get that part.

Depends on what square they are - its the squares which decide how difficult it is to skip.

Its pretty linear, so somewhere between 100 -> 180% (These are rough figures, don't treat them as gospel) will lie your mid level difficulty value.

How it work when you can meet a player? What are the chances to meet him and what decide of difficulty to avoid it?
