Hi !

I'm playing this game for two weeks now. It's simply awesome, but there is one thing I just don't seem to understand. I tried it at the German Forum (I'm one of those German Gorath-Players...) and I tried it ingame, but noone could explain this properly to me :

OK - my twohanded melee accuracy is +65

The accuracy modifier for my hammer is -31 at all three ranges

So 65-31 - that's +34. So as far as I understood "combat mathematics", +34 should be my chance to hit my target with my hammer, right ?

But no matter what I fight - some critter, NPC or Player, i get -42 ?! The small blue number left of your target's HAM that indicates your chance to hit always shows -42.

Please, can someone here explain that to me - i simply don't get it....
