Infil technical spec questions

[Laban]

If you spec 50DW what good would +11 from template do? Someone said that u dont get dmg output but %chanse of using both weaps if u have 50+x

Same for slash and CS...

If is specc 39+11 in CS, will it do as much dmg as 50spec using PA?
What about dmg output 39+11 compared to 50spec in slash?


Thnx for the answers in advance

Two golden rules to follow.

- Your base damage skill (thrust/slash) must be at combined 51.
- Your style damage skill (CS/CD) must be as high as possible.

When you make a styled swing, your damage consists of two parts: Base and Style damage.
Variance on base damage is determined by the base damage skill (thrust/slash). Once that hits 51, you won't have anymore variance.
Style damage is determined by the line the style is from. Since CS and CD have better styles people usually use these. So you basicly want that line as high as possible (min 44+11+rr).

combined 50 not 51. There are no tests shown that you need 51 composite weapon specc and Wyrd have said himself he took 51 "just to be sure"

If composite 51 specc was the way to go even stealth would be at 51

Ive seen the talk about 50 vs. 51. I haven't seen any conclusion on it though so just took 51 to be sure.

But yeah, pick 50 or 51 as you see fit.

I asked him before and did some small amount of testing and it showed no difference.

ok ty for the answers =) Who is this wyrd dude?

 

[Azathrim]

Wyrd is the guy that led the playertests which got LA nerfed. He didn't play a Berserker then. Now he is the Berserker TL. He still doesn't play a Berserker.

He is one of those types that analyze a game but doesn't play it much. Yet he likes to tell people how to play, often in an arrogant and demeaning manner.

That aside, he seems very correct on melee speccing and using modified 50/51 base specs, aka "Wyrd Specs".

 

[Dorin]

basically the dude who tested daoc enuff to find out that its enuff to have modified 50-51 weapon spec to get rid of melee hit variance, aka you hit the highest possible all the time

iirc

a person who wasted his spare time on this too much time is a bit irrevelant. (sp?)
