Funny Things People Do

SE has made plenty of statements that 2str=1atk

Seriously. I saved myself 15 minutes of reading from people who use staff. Not interested. It doesn't matter if your /nin or /war or /lol. I'm also not disputing Str over Rattck. There are plenty of other slots open for Strength. Use them. I've been a full time Ranger since 2003 and have tried every combination out there. If your using staff your either poor and can't afford the alternative Str setup for other slots, naive, or your into the whole monkey see/monkey do. Last post on the matter. Enjoy. Debate. Ciao~

I love these "You do it differently than me so you suck" people, they make the game worth playing <3

I find great irony in this post.

As I said, somebody doesn't have any 2-handed jobs.

1 Handed Attack = {( 8 + Combat Skill + STR/2 + (+attack from gear) + (+attack trait/ability/minuet)) * berserk effect (if available)} * (1+ percentage increase from food )

2 Handed Attack = {( 8 + Combat Skill + 3STR/4 + (+attack from gear) + (+attack trait/ability/minuet)) * berserk effect (if available)} * (1+ percentage increase from food )

Fixed that for you.

I like to wear my Sam af body to see how many complaints I get. That's always fun. So what if I want some damn tp back if I get hit, occassionally. :D

How come we went from ranged to 1hvs2h?

Because this is a debate about using two axes or a staff, and if you didn't know, staves are two handed. So given that formula, each STR equals .75 attack AND ranged attack versus the each STR only giving .5 attack AND ranged attack. So just by equiping a staff that already has 5 STR, and 10 ranged attack; in otherwords 13 ranged attack plus the STR for ws mods. Also, every additional point of STR you add in other slots will still add out to .75 ranged attack instead of the .5.

I know that the Strength:attack ratio is different depending on if you're using a 1 handed or 2 handed weapon. But attack does not equal ranged attack. I'm not saying that this isn't true, but someone post proof that 1 Str = 0.75 RAtk while holding a 2 handed weapon cause right now I'd have go on the 'not true' side, lol.

Edit: These formulas are from the Wiki page for calculating 'attack'. There is only 1 formula on the 'ranged attack' page.

Thanks for pointing that out for me.

But, the more Str+ I have, the better I feel inside! ; ;

I dont see Ranged attack anywhere in that formula, so...... your statement is without proof and thus moot, kthxbai

Fixed.

You post your solid proof that 1 STR = 0.5 Attack, and I'll post my solid proof that 1 STR = 0.75 Ranged Attack when a Staff is equipped.

derailed thread is derailed

I never did say I had proof ^^. I was just commenting on the fact that people were saying 1 STR = .75 Ratk while using a 2 handed weapon based on a formula that calculates attack. Attack doesn't equal ranged attack so using an 'attack' formula to state that about ranged attack doesn't make sense. If I really had to show proof it would be those formulas from the Wiki...I know they're not proven but those are the formulas that were brought up in order to say 1 Str = .75 Ratk with a 2-handed weapon. But you say you do have proof, so why not post it and/or edit that 'Ranged Attack' page on the wiki.

This 70 rng(Kurosiro) just invited me ( I'm lvl 15 rng ) And he was like {experience points} and I was like okay then he invites me and gives me leader, and was like {Member can I have it?} I was like uhhh im level 15, level sync 15 okay? He was like no thanks 55~...I was like you've got to be kidding me, you invite me to a party then make me make the party then you want to level sync 45 levels above me? Holy ***!

:O

lol, agreed - keeps it entertaining!
