Which one is wrong?
#31410 - 08/04/07 10:59 AM |
Ok, LegendRunner pointed out a thing in the game that I'm amazed that I had missed. Example: According to char sheet, my max damage is 350. I add a helm with 25 melee dps. Now my sheet says 375 damage. Ok, seems normal and all, but hey! The helm adds 25 damage per second! So why oh why is my max damage going up with 25 damage (for the record, my speed was not 1.00, in which case it would have made sence (speed of 0.28))?? The max damage is per hit, and not per second... So, either it's a typo that says +## damage per second, OR, the character sheet lies to us. Which one is it? Both? You answer me  -------------------- Jinxed - Lvl 100 -------------------- |

From the testing I have done it is the description of damage per second on equipment it should be damage per attack. The character sheet seems to be pretty accurate about everything, the only problem with it for me is that it doesnt show decimals which is annoying. -------------------- Flydd, semi retired mage currently at the long dark teatime of the retirement castle |

So, out of this we can say that Damage per Second needs to be Damage per Attack? also for extra understanding: I took the example of a Shadow mage, there are no skills that make damage per second either (When weapon says +x dps to shadow damage). -------------------- LegendRunner - level 100 Ace something The Townstons Wiki Archive! - Boss of TT Dont Feed The Trolls!

Yes, the "damage per second" is a misnomer and does not accurately describe in game combat mechanics. -------------------- slot #1: Balomar - Level 100 Warrior (build 53) slot #2: Thalen - Level 100 Athletic Ace Touchy Ranger (build 91) slot #3: Valmora - Level 100 Genius Arch Shadow Wizard (build 91) |
