Informal short check of damages this morning whilst I was out controlling the Krayt population -

I decided to use the damage done by my droid as he gets in constant damages-

Juvie krayt - 108 base damage. Blinded, 109 Stunned, 108. Dizzied, 114. Blinded and dizzied, 115.

Giant - 76 base. Blinded, 78. Stunned, 76. stunned, 76. Dizzied, 81. Dizzied and blinded, 83.

Ancient - 46 base. Blinded, 47. Stunned, 46. Dizzied, 51. Blind and dizzied, 53.

Hypotheses -

Stunned does not increase damage, but semi slows regeneration I think.

Dizzy and blind (l darts and sharp bone spurs) increase the damage the most.

The more traps you throw, the less weapon/combat xp you get. But ain't no way you can drop an ancient without a droid and some traps.

By no means all inclusive, just stuff I did this morning when I was bored.

This is exactly why BH is a great profession for hunting-- blinding shot, bleeding shot, dizzy/stun combo, plus a knockdown move. Knockdown is the most potent damage multiplier. I have no hard data, but I assure you that you'll do a LOT more damage when your target is blind/stunned/dizzied and KD'd.

BTW, a bit off topic, but:

I've been doing some thinking for the Outdoorsmand 3.0...do you guys think advanced forms of these traps would be out of the question? Like whereas most professions get dizzy, we get dizzyx2. A dizzy that adds more to the multiplier? or a longer dizzy?

crap...I'm gonna do a focus thread on this...gimmie a minute or two here.

Ive come to the realization that BH/Ranger is uber.

Pre-CU I bounced back and forth from pikeman to rifleman. Ive done just about every combat prof in respeccingthe past 2 weeks. and BH wins hands down. The def, speed, and special attacks, along with wep diversity is the all around winner.

I know this doesnt have a lot to do with the topic. But when you mentioned bh dizzy/blind/stun/kd, I got inspirred to tell my story heheh
