Just curious:


Assuming master of profession I'm comparing pike to other melee professions


Speed mod

Sword: +75

Pike: +75

Fencer: +90

TK: +115


Average Damage of Best weapon:

Sword: 400-500 max damage

Pike: 400-500 max damage

TK: 400-450

Fencer: 200-300


Average Speed of Best weapon:

Sword: 4-5 seconds

Pike: 4-5 seconds

TK: 2.2 seconds

Fencer: 2-3 seconds


Damage Mod of Hit3

Sword: x4

TK: x4

Fencer: x4

Pike: x3


Hit3 Speed Modifier

Sword: 2.5

TK: 3

Fencer: 2.25

Pike: 2.5


Would it have been so hard to make us have a x4 damage mod on hit 3, I know fencer weapons are less damage but they are faster, as well as TK

Because we have a x.5 delay shorter than all the other hit3's. The dev's thought it would compensate damage wise...... it doesnt. Just get enough tapes to hit the speed cap (getting there's a bizzich and a half), and once your there, you drop people in no time.

We do have a 4x damage mod. See here.

Incidentally, I've confirmed this. 69 max damage combat staff attacking a lair with PH3 hit a max damage of 513.

(513 / 1.86) / 69 = 4

I'm pretty sure testing showed a 3x modifier on Hit 3.. we had an increase in damage from Hit 3 in publish 7, and then was nerfed again in Publish 8...

I tested today after reading this post. I did a hit of 4894 damage on my 654 max damage pike. 654 x 1.86 x 4 = 4865 so sounds about right, The npc was standing when I did it. I know there is a x2 mod if they are dizzy/kd, I think anyway.
