tower in the distance that casts a large shadow across the entire plain.  An
intense magically aura radiates throughout the entire area.  Its source
presumably is within the great tower. To the west the river blocks your travel.

My opinion is if u arnt helping why are u playing this gmud is in test stages u are supposed to report bugs in programing .....

[Vitoc]

Thanks for reporting this; first I've heard of it.  Definitely going to look into it.

While our goal right now is testing, there's bound to be people who aren't going to report things.  The more people we can get in the realm, the better chance we have of catching things like this.

[Vitoc]

I'm not sure where I got the formulas I had for Mystics but they were horribly wrong and I don't see them listed in the formulas from Locke's .pas file.

I've changed them in the latest version to be more in tune with what I think they should be, but they're prolly still a bit off.  If the new damage doesn't look too outrageous, we'll postpone serious testing until we get the real formulas.

[Faceless thing]

 Id say they are still way off here is a cap i seen after u fixed them

well regular hits for over a hundred and crits in the 600's  way to much damage

[DeathCow]

Mystic Attack	Speed
Punch	1150
Kick	1400
Jumpkick	1900

And here's the formulas (in Pascal) for how to determine the various Mystic attacks damage ranges (read on below for some more though, the results of these formulas actually get modified in the actual hit calculation code (ala bash/smash))--

Code Select Expand

function  CalcPunchMinDmg(PunchValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := ((Level * PunchValue) div 8) + 2;

  end else begin
    Result := ((20 * PunchValue) div 8) + 2;
  end;
end;

function  CalcPunchMaxDmg(PunchValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := (((Level + 3) * PunchValue) div 4) + 6;
  end else begin
    Result := ((23 * PunchValue) div 4) + 6;
  end;
end;

function  CalcKickMinDmg(KickValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := ((Level * KickValue) div 8) + 2;
  end else begin
    Result := ((20 * KickValue) div 8) + 2;
  end;
end;

function  CalcKickMaxDmg(KickValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := ((Level * KickValue) div 6) + 7;
  end else begin
    Result := ((20 * KickValue) div 6) + 7;
  end;
end;

function  CalcJumpkickMinDmg(JumpkickValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := ((Level * JumpkickValue) div 8) + 2;
  end else begin
    Result := ((20 * JumpkickValue) div 8) + 2;
  end;
end;

function  CalcJumpkickMaxDmg(JumpkickValue, Level: integer): integer;
begin
  if (Level < 20) then begin
    Result := ((Level * JumpkickValue) div 6) + 8;
  end else begin
    Result := ((20 * JumpkickValue) div 6) + 8;
  end;
end;

Mystic Attack	Speed	Damage Multiplier
Punch	1150	1.00
Kick	1400	1.33
Jumpkick	1900	1.66

Without looking at the code, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what the formulas were before I changed them recently.

I'll bet there's some other bug at work.  Maybe mystic spells?

I didn't think the mystic spells were in yet?

[Faceless thing]

So if they are are they stacking like beast's did?

[The Crazy Animal]

If they have a +dmg spell then yes it would stack causing that type of effect.

[DeathCow]

The problem was clear, the max hit was  way too high.

[The Crazy Animal]

ok since mystical hasn't shown back up. I've been power leveling a mystic to test this and I have a feeling that it was way of the tiger stacking its abilities.

This is at lvl 38:

Miss:  3%
Hit:   53%   Rng:8-23     Avg:14
Extra: 0%    Rng:0-0      Avg:0
Crit:  44%   Rng:41-104   Avg:71
BS:    100%  Rng:131-163  Avg:146
Pre:   N/A   Rng:0-0      Avg:0
Cast:  N/A   Rng:0-0      Avg:0
Round:       Rng:0-262    Avg:133

I'm going to run him up 40 maybe 50 just to make sure before rerolling him. I'll keep you posted but I'm fairly sure this is fixed right now.

[DeathCow]

Did he have way of the tiger? How did he get any spells?

[The Crazy Animal]

Did he have way of the tiger? How did he get any spells?

Mystics seem to be getting them automatically just like they would in mmud when training. So yes he had way of the tiger and all the other mystic leftovers that are still there.

[DeathCow]

Oh.

[The Crazy Animal]

yep
