Update [April 19 07] - Hit chance

Red Squirrel · Post by **Red Squirrel** » Thu Apr 19, 2007 8:26 pm

I modified the hit chance script in favor of non dexxers. With equal HCI/DCI your chance to hit is now 60%. Food will no longer play a role in increasing the chance. Before the chance was 75% with equal DCI/HCI. The chance is 75% in PVM though, but PVP it will be 60%.

I want mages and dexxers alike to let me know how this works out for them.

personaly, this wont change much.... waht if ur not a tank mage? what if ur pure? some one will bitch still... personal i think every one would need to suck it up anhd depower more weapons... sorry hecrot that includes void... but not just bows.. claw of humus, and other random idems used... maybe even armor... angel leggins... fucken ober as hell... decrease the lmc or the mr on it. just some thing to keep in mind...

another thing is that maybe the dexxers are good cuz they have the skill. personaly, when iplayed i played a dexer, the whole time then changed to a mage. i know how they work. so it cna be skill... keep it in mind... idems are over powerd, not the build

To fix the void = change it to a magical shortbow, but I doubt people would like this change.

And really even without ubber items, people will manage to max out their properties. The void is not the first bow to shoot at max speed. I've seen people on demise make a 45DCI 45HCI 1.25sec dryad archer with 120 tactics 120 anat etc... they hit like 30 per shot. So really the items only make it easier here to achieve your maximum performance.

I would be for changing the void to a different bow type, though programaticly that would be tricky, as making an item inherit a different class will cause serialization errors meaning they'll have to be global deleted. I could always fake change it though, like change the item ID and override it's specials. But to me the void is just a dryad alternative, in fact dryad is probably still better because it has DI.

ya... if some one builds a dexxer they can learn how to play better... trust me... i started out as a dexxer cuz they are harder to learn/build up..then go to a mage, the will not be ober but over time and practice, it will help

Actually what I could do too is reduce the base damage of void, to like, a repeating cross bow or something.

Voidvoidvoid, everyone has void, and void is the allmighty god. HOW ABOUT THE FUCKING CASTERS BRACELET? MANA BARRIER? If there are mage arties like those two, whys houldnt there be things like void and void isnt even anythign special, you can get bows like that outta monsters.

And lets count how many dexxers are there on shard nowdays who pvp. (umm 2 who pvp, one is too busy to code)

Now lets count how many of them use void. (there are like 3 voids on shard, out of those 3 pvping dexxers 1 has void)

Do the math and guess that am i taking this personaly?
Its like saying: "Brunus you killed me yesturday, i want your 'insertitemname here' nerfed, so _I_ can kill you"

And rat i agree with you, if dexxers are so overpowered why arent there any more of them? Cause they arent, people just pissed of cause things are different than on osi or demise, this is custom shard where dxxers actualy have change to kill something.

Yeah I personally think nothing needs to be changed at this point. If anything just need to throw in some crappy artifacts in the randomizer to make the good ones rarer.

And void is not any more powerful than dryad bow, dryad has DI which imo makes it more powerful, specially since how easy it is to get ssi such as helm of rage, daimo helm, etc.

we all have valid points... all make sence... but mages arent TERIBLY underpowerd as they are seemed... a bit yes but nothing drastic... but personaly keep every thing how it should be really... keep the spell higher but not .1 cuz thats nuts...

over all black good job by reacting upon this so fast

shows alot
