Light levels, loot rolls, & Cartographer's Camp

Post Body
So I've been looking over this page on the DD wiki, and I'm a little confused about A. how loot rolls work and how they're affected by light levels, and B. how building the Cartographer's Camp affects light level effects (in particular loot rolls, but also dodge).
I guess to break my questions down from most general to most specific...
- For Vanilla Radiant mode, the wiki says Dim Light (51-75) gives " Loot (25% chance)." For Shadowy (26-50), it says " Loot (Gold/Items 10%/ 4 draws)." What exactly does this mean? Does " 10%" = 35% chance? Chance of what?? What's a "draw"?? Are those just 2 ways of describing the same thing or are they different things?
- When you build the Cartographer's Camp, it says it adds 1%/ 1 draw cumulatively to each light level (so 1%/ 1 draw for Radiant, 5%/ 5 draws for Black as Pitch) – I'm assuming this means added to the vanilla stats, right? (so 30%/12 draws for Black as Pitch becomes 35%/17 draws?)
- How are the battle bonus and chest bonus distinct from the loot chance? Am I right in thinking the bonuses are about the amount of loot items you get (as in # of slots/distinct items), while the loot chance # is about the quantity of the loot (as in 100 gold vs 1,000 gold)? Does the quality of the loot factor in as well (i.e. Emeralds vs Citrine)?
- Am I right in thinking the battle and chest bonuses aren't affected by building the Cartographer's Camp?
- My last question isn't about loot, but about dodge: the wiki says that building the Cartographer's Camp (on Radiant mode) adds 10 dodge for Radiant Light (76-100) and 2.5 for Dim Light (51-75) – I'm assuming that means those #s are added to the Vanilla #s, right? So 7.5 for Radiant becomes 17.5 and 4 for Dim becomes 6.5?
I love getting technical about this stuff, but am just a bit confused about how exactly some of it works.
Thank you!!
