I return to my other question. Perhaps I should rephrase it. How much DMP does a shield provide when fighting denizens i.e. NOT OTHER PLAYERS.


On that note, how much does 90/90 platemail provide? Or is it even on the DMP system? I recall hearing something about how forged armours were not on the DMP system and were instead straight reduction based on some obscure formula (kan haz equazhuns prz?)

Does the damage stat on weapons affect bashing damage?
Shaddus2009-02-20 01:01:10
Razenth - From what I understand, none.

Tervic - No clue.

Gero - I've never noticed it,but I'm sure it does in some small way.

Why do I need to be on elrx to give my beast a healing command now? And why was that changed from before, when I could use beast heal and beast cure off elrx? I mean... I can understand why the attacky stuff needing elrx, but healing? Whhyyyyyyyy?

I believe that it does play some sort of role in bashing damage. That's why people go for high speed, high damage weapons for bashing, because of the slightly increased damage.

Razenth: Zero.
Tervic: 45%, not on DMP.

What is this?

That drops shield from Trueheal?

Damn right it does. That's why I put it up.

Trueheals 'shield' is just serpent barrier. A seven second one. It hardly matters, really. Distort is useful for preventing far better things.

I was told it breaks ghost too.

Not entirely sure, but it'd be silly to raise distort just to disrupt a few truehealer's 7 second serpent barrier. tongue.gif

So all the cubixers can't leave?

It's still nice to have it against people who trueheal 50 times.

Whoa, that's a lot. Follow up: Is it linear from 0 armour to 90? I.e. would 45/45 give 22.5 % reduction?
Razenth2009-02-20 05:52:32
On that note, do enchanted robes follow the same formula? If, hypothetically, I had special Elder-blessed 90/90 robes, would they also give 45% damage reduction?

@Tervic: Got Kiakodan!

Not to nitpick, but distort in no way stops trueheal/cubix. The barrier isn't prevented from rising entirely.

Distort is mainly useful for preventing the escape of those without cubixes. For me, at least.
