Thread: What is the ratio of damage of a random HAM attack?
If I do a random HAM attack, what percentage of damage gets applied to the three areas, H, A, and M? I know the info is out there somewhere, but I can't find it.
In all atacks, inluding targeted spcials, damage is done 80% 10% 10%
So if you do a Health shot for 100 damage, 80 damage health 10 damage action 10 damage mind.
As for random atacks, I belive its...
55% chance for abody hit 45% for a leg hit and 10% for a head hit.....

That's 110%...
Have seen it reported as:
1/2 health, 1/3 action, 1/6 mind pool, as the "target" for the shot.
Once target is determined, your attack actually only does 80% to the targeted pool, and 10% to each action/mind pool (I did test this part out, it's where the #s came from). Which on average still ends up being "basically" the same thing (1/2, 1/3, 1/6).
Thanks guys. Now I thinkI'm more confused than I was before, hehe.Let me try to clarify: If I'm doing a random HAM attack, does that mean there's a percentage chance (50% that it'll be H, 33% that it'll be A, and 17% that it'll be M). Thenit actually ends up being a targeted attack on whichever area it chooses, with 80% allocated to that area, and 10% to each other area?
Is that right?
So if you have a targeted Body Shot vs. a non-targeted shot, assuming for the sake of argument that they do the same damage, they'd be identical in effect? Save for the fact that Body Shot guarantees the hit location?
I think what he's saying is that it's 50 33 17 or 55 whatever, whatever to hit a random pool as your primary...
That is, if I shot you
