weapon damage / skill

[marach]

here the thing..

i know weaponskill raises whit weaponspec and whit str.

i also know that weapondamage is effected by your lvl i cant seem to find out what else tho.

You should think listining to the names that weapondmg decites the dmg and skill the chance to hit thought a evade / shield etc..

dont think it works like that tho and would like to hear what you guys think.

cmon you dont know?

Weaponskill defines how often you get evaded/blocked/parried. It also decides your average dam, meaning high weaponskill gives you higher average dam.

Weapondmg, well that kindda says it all dont it?

Weapondamage is purely based on what weapon you are wielding, multiply it's dps and quality, that's your weapondamage.


e.g. you are level 45 and wield a 93% 16.2dps weapon.

16.2dps is clamped to 14.7 for your level. So 14.7*93 = 1367 weapondamage.



Weaponskill is how effective you are at swinging that weapon. This is modified by your class, level, strength (and/or dexterity for some weapon types) and trained skill in that weapon type.

Weaponskill determines your chance to hit your opponent (through evade, parry, block) and the damage you do when you do hit them.

Hmm.. anyone know the weaponskill cap at the various RRs on L50? currently I have 64 in weapon and with buffs I always end up on 1789 weaponskill.. anyone know the increments when gaining a +1 to spec? (ie, gaining a RR or something )

It varies by class (and in some cases varies by weapon type within the class) so tanks have higher than hybrids and they have higher than rogues, so I can't tell you what your cap will be.

Easy to tell if you are at the cap though as with the current patch (1.61 will change this) you will cap when your damage stat (str for slash/crush, (str+dex)/2 for thrust, etc) is at 300.

And easy to tell how much it changes by RR. Just remove some equipment to drop 1 skill, 2 skill, etc.


(My inf caps at 1431 weaponskill and is raising ~9 points per RR)

Yes, basically that means your arms and zerker have the same chance to hit and the same base damages.


You then have further modifications. There is a multiplier on damage for 2h/pole damage (if your arms uses one). LA base damage is then reduced to 60%, but increased again based on LA skill.

Then there's the style lines making a huge difference... If interested, look at this thread:

49 spec? fecked up respec?

 

[Driwen]

btw archer with their bow can get around 1600 weaponskill aswell .

And i have seen people with 48 in weapon, because they want the extra weaponskill, but the lvl 50 move isnt worth it. So they get something else high with those 99 points . But 49 is possible for same reasons. Dont know if the lvl 50 move for arms is good or not .
