It's supposed to work like this unarmed.

{<([Avg Dmg + Unarmed Damage Mod*] x 1.5) x Special Attack Mod> x Target's Equipped Weapon**} x 1.5 KD mod***

*should include tapes and food, but only works on food apparently.

**1.2x for a pistol, 1.5x for a carbine, 2.5x for a rifle/heavy weapon.

*** IF they are KD'd, they experience a 1.5x mod on all incoming damage.


Sooo... what that means is this, with master TKA and UH3 vs a KD'd Rifleman.

{<([15 + 250] x 1.5) x 4> x 2.5} x 1.5}

That totals a whopping 5,962.5 Damage. Wow. This is before PvP reduction, which brings it to 1,490. Still wildy impressive, and why it's fun to beat down on Rifleman, haha. Oh, that's avg Dmg btw.

Well I can say that it is better than REM's, no offense to Rem, but it is a specialized DPS calc for TKA. Anyway, what's wrong with it? I've done a few calcs on some of the stats, but not all of them.

Another thing Id like to see is the ham costs. I know Fists have a Ham cost, just i dunno what, because I dont know the multipliers of the specials, or how secondaries work to mitigate special Ham drain.

Hmm it seems fine without use of vk, but with it the values are just a little too high

Example: vk 50-200 should yield average dam of ((50+200)/2 + 250)*1.5 = 562.5

It says 690.625

Im a bit tired, so i might be off on this one :-)

Have you tried it in-game? It could be the Light AP on your VKs.

As i stated earlier, i have made plenty of tests. So i know the equation is correct.

It could be the armor thingy, but i dont think so. Why would he take that into his calculator, he dont know what kind of armor you are hitting against. Besides it doesnt add up anyway: 562.5*1.25=703.125 NOT 690

Um... Jimbrown, if it's 'just a game,' why are you lurking around and trolling the forums? Is there anything wrong with knowing which specials are most effective for taking an enemy down? If I figure out that I am most effective with a certain special, then YES, I will do more damage because I know this equation. Thank your for proving your idiocy, move along.

um.... i hate to burst anyones bubble, but its a friggin game man. who cares what the equation is? how is this EVER going to help ANYONE?!?!?! unless i had absolutely no other important thing on earth to accomplish or my life was at stake, i wouldnt worry about such things. just kill stuff man. it isnt going to make you do more damage to know this equation.
