Thread: Melee enhancements?
Hello, I'm new to the swordsman profession (and loving it so far, 0/4/0/2), and just wondering if there was anything to hunt that drops something similar to krayt tissue, but for melee weapons.
Oh yeah, and i've been noticing weird things with AP recently. Like, I'll be figthing mynocks on lok, no armor, yet on some of them (still no armor) the damage over their head is the same as in the combat stats window. I'm using a 2H curved (medium AP). From my tests it seems that the AP is done, using the correct multiplier if fighting something with lower armor, but then the resists are still used to reduce damage. This seems incorrect and different from the way it used to be. I thought that the resists were ignored if the AP is greater than the targets armor. Anyway, any insight would be wonderful...thanks.
theres a couple bugs with armor piercing... vulnerabilities dont work the way they should.... a 1% reduction results in more damage done than a vulnerability if your weapon has any armor piercing at all....
also to answer your enchancements question... our equivolent of krayt tissues is rancor teeth, but unfortunatly rancor teeth replace rather than supplement the sword core, and often result in a wrose weapon than a smith can make without them
