Who did I land that nasty hit on last night in Odins?

As we went to take Fenris, we got into a squabble with some Middies at the MG. I hit some Norse yellow con for 524 and crit for 501 damage on it as well.

Sorry to have laid that on you and thanks to Lessa for my uber staff of thwacking.

it was meh!! oh wait no, I've hardly ever even been hit for over 200 by friars.. oh and I guess I'm not a norse yellow con either too hmm.. still tho, I hear a lot about friars having 2nd best melee in alb after polearmsmen but so far my encounters with them have been decidedly disappointing.. still if what rasp says is true (no reason to believe otherwise) then he may finally be the uber friar I have been looking for!! Now to just manage to run nito him 1 on 1 sometime.....

Are you sure the 501 was a crit?

Melee crits are capped at 50% of base damage.

Still, nice damage though

you sure about that? I'm sure that when beating on doors I've foten gotten figures like:

you hit for 87 damage
you critically hit for an aditional 86 damage

(ie. a perfect critical)

and well over 50%.. unless maybe it's 50% of your cap with that style? not your actual damage maybe?

50% of your base damage cap would be the best way to put it i.e. it will increase with buffs etc as your weaponskill/str increases, but will still reach a cap. Easiest way to find the cap is to whack a lvl 1 mob :)

The 50% limit was brought in as part of the overall RvR damage reduction.

A crit of 501 would mean that theoretically you could hit a yellow con with the same style for 1002 base.

I did read that some believe the limitation only applies to other players and not mobs but i'm not certain of that.

Aye, melee crits cap at 50% of the hit in pvp, though i`m yet to see perfect one. My best one was 750+330 on Niu. (Hehe, prolly she was in all-grey robes without fancy af buffs ;) )

Those 50% are taken _before_ resists, so its quite possibe to hit someone for 300(-200) and crit for 250.

I've hit mobs for things like 350+320 and such many times, you can definitely 100% crit on them.

No.

I have done 331 with my style to a greycon, then crit for 32x.

Not true mate.

I have critted for the same (-/+10dmg) as my base attack loads of times, and this happens very often due to MOP II :)

As far as I know friars don't move up in DEX through the levels, eventhough it is the stat that is used for Staffs. So if you hit them with your -70DEX/QUI debuff they're going to suffer bad, which is prolly why most frairs hate fighting Champs.

this picture is odd to me, since my damage cap with celtic fury is about 550~, approx 200 less than it hit for there.. and yes it was a celt but they only have 20 str more than me, and 20 != 200dmg extra..

I find that piccie very odd for the same reasons as Malevolencia. My celtic fury cap is about 250 lower than that, and damage cap with annihilation is 627. No matter how much str raises, the damagecap will not go up. However, if I have had less quickness that damagecap would have gone up, but not 250 with celtic fury.

Weird if you ask me, but then again, I am weird :)
