Each level of Perception reduces the service time by 1 minute, and increases the chance of encountering pirates on hunts only, not risky, safe, or normal flight legs. Base service time is 8 minutes, thus, maxed Perception will lower service times to 3 minutes.
Based on calculations by Zabrak!, we now have a greater understanding of how Perception affects hunts.
Every 300 seconds (5 minutes) the game will roll to see if it generates a combat.
The probability of generating a combat is highly dependent on your Perception level, and levels of 3 or less have little probability of succeeding.
A Perception of 4 has a 90-95% chance of generating a combat. A Perception of 5 practically ensures a hunt.
