I don't understand. The 10% seems outrageous. Something like 2% sounds more reasonable, but 10%?
Why?
Why?
Why does Zoroastrianism have a +10% to missionary strength?

I assume the idea is that, since Muslims don't actively convert counties in CK2, there's a good chance there'll be a bunch of random Zoroastrian provinces in Persia bringing down the religious unity and inciting revolts. So this way the AI can clear out the orphaned religion without much trouble.
You can always mod it, since all CK2 conversions are mods anyway.

Fustrates me too. I think aitaituo's reason is accurate. It's just a bother to spend all that time creating a Zoroastrian empire and then... getting treated as basically a pagan for conversion purposes? Doesn't happen to any other religion.
The converter should really take away that penalty and replace it with a bonus if the player reinstates the Moabad-Moabadan.

No, it treats you worse than a Pagan for conversion purposes. This penalty is rather insulting and just generally a slap in the face for anyone converting a Zoroastrian empire. You can't afford to lose any provinces because they'll be converted almost instantly and you have no fancy decisions or anything with which to increase your own missionary power beyond stability, religious ideas, increased narrowminded, and inquisitors.
abrahamic or gtfo as far as EUIV is concerned. all the other religions are a waste of time in this game
Converted Norse, Aztec, and Inca are stellar. Judaism not so much.
I mean, it's +10% base tax. That's not +10% forcelimits, sure, but it's more useful than the non-Norse Pagan fort defense bonus and offsets some of the Inca's gold mine inflation.
And it's only available to the Inca themselves anyway. From CK2 it's possible (if tricky) to set up a European nation with the Aztec faith and then play as that, which is more fun than starting off as the New World blobs.

As long as you aren't an Abrahamic heresy. It's great playing as -noreligion
Put this in the CKII bug forum so Groogy can see it and make some changes. He said in comments after his ROI dev diary that he is working on the converter, it would do no harm to bring it to his attention.
