[DocWolfe]

look:

someone nerf him

 

[Azal]

well your blue con, so i hit you for 933 (near ish my cap with that sword) and i got a lucky crit, sue me

 

[old.Mousah]

if you ask me Sbs and infis are the only classes in this game that need gimping....

 

[klavrynd]

touch the laxe line and i'm going berserk

 

[old.Noita]

Ouch!



Nice one!

 

[DocWolfe]

I only have 854hp at lvl 44

 

[SilverHood]

Thats about my HP without items

<sigh>

In theory archers are meant to stay back and kill casters while the assassins are meant to kill the archers, the only problem is with BT and PBT archers have a hard time killing casters where as assassins (crit specced) don't have to worry about bt, so expect to be killed alot by assassins. Ohhh and I've seen screenies on vn of hunters getting caps of 1000+ dmg without crits with 99-100 qual duskwoods (btw blood what was your cap?) I guess the reason why archers have higher caps is bows are dex based (archers primary stat) where as SB's only have access to str based weapons (2nd or 3rd stat?). With pbt and the see hidden just expect to see assassins hit there cap on you far more than you hit your cap on a caster though.......

 

[old.Atrox]

erm Hunters with 1000+ cap ?
would like to see that b4 I belive it

 

[ignore]

tactics to kill Azal.. PA,CD (stun)...SPRINT!!!!!
- You attempt to use the handgrenade-
You blow up kobold for 2500dmg

instead of waving that oversized blade around :uhoh: would you like to have a throwing knives - crossbow fight

my cap is below 900 with crafted bows, and afaik i have the highest bow level on the english servers.. 66 (scouts and rangers shoot harder because they have slower bows)

fyi: str/dex doesnt affect cap on weapons, qui does affect the cap on melee weapons, but not on bows... quality of weapons doesnt affect damage cap either.. what does affect cap are: spec level, weapon dps(capped), weapon spd.

 

[mid-sinister]

With a 99% qual duskwood great you have around a 850 cap or so on grey mobs, and even on some even con casters/leather wearer's, not sure what the damage cap on the new heavy bow is, well see next patch if that hits for over 1000...

 

[Danya]

Styles also affect cap on melee weapons. And I haven't noticed qui doing anything to it...

My cap using crit on greys with LB50 +13 using Bow of Doom (can't remember stats atm) was 996,I suppose using a 99% duskwood it would break the 1000 barrier <shrug>

 

[Fightersuntzu]

Yeah. Azal needs to be hit with the nerfbat, he hit me for 700 damage sitting down, and i have 18% slash resist......neeeeeeerf Tho the ubers at excal were kind enough to dispatch him..suicidal kobbie

(i get inquis hitting me for - 3 digit numbers......how the hell you can hit for 700 is beyond me).

 

[old.Emma]

you`ll prolly find that azal is one of a rare bread of pure critblade that have a dmg cap of over 1000, i remember with my old sb, i hit a yellow con caster for 1400 dmg with a slow 2h sword. so hitting a tank for 700 is possible although you`ll more than likely find that was mainly due to a massive critical hit

 

[Azal]

my max dmg cap if i change a few items around is over 1.1k or 1.15k i forget. And no Emma Fightersuntzu was sitting down wasn't a crit

 

[old.mattshanes]

Azal can't be that bad he only hit me for 729, hoster hit me for 1442 once

 

[0pin]

Im lvl 44 and this happend to me yesterday

http://home.ihnykf.dk/~deol03/sshot004.jpg

Thats excatly one more hitpoint than i have

I cant wait for next patch that finally will bring nightshades up to pair...

 

[Solid]

Matty Hoster is the most gimp specced SB our there, Azal will hit you for easily 25% more that Hoster can ever hit.

 

[revminster]

My damage cap with Duskwood Great Recurve and a bow skill of 50+10 is 1011 damage.

Oh, and as Blood said earlier; Dex has nothing to do with bow damage cap. Did some testing on that.

NERF!!

 

[old.mattshanes]

Blood you can talk you hit me for 900+ a few times

What's suddenly this talking about archers doing 1k damage?
Firewizards do 1k with bolt and they can crit on it, the followup bolt on the separate timer does a bit less and is also critable.
They can theoretically get 3k+ damage in those few seconds from the first bolt hits to the second is casted and hits. With the same limitations as Critshots from archers. Except they can bolt moving targets, Critshots can't. Firewizards was just an example, several casters can do this. While we are talking about nerfing; Hibernian casters also have a 2.5sec castable 1500range 9sec duration _baseline_ stun. A 9s ranged stun on a class that can do the above damage which is NOT stopped by bladeturn.

<yawn>

oh, I'd really like those bolts... Which line do I have to spec in mid to get them? mine bolts just gimp off at ~300 dmg with huge castingtime ~~

 

[Danya]

Hib casters can do 3k+ damage in 9 seconds? Wow which spec line is that on?!
