No matter how it works : Once you got thyself a god-like armor, it's just a ton a wasted skillpoints
Armor truly has to be god-like if it also nullifies the defenses of everyone around you.
Correct, that's why the modifier is not a precise value. Doing this with ranged wouldn't be practical due to weapon durability, ammo and AI behavior.
So, to estimate the role of defense skill, I went against something with known fixed melee skill and edited my effective dodge stat until I found a spot where hit chance no longer visibly dropped.
Psi builds get so much special treatment already, I'm glad we have a new enemy that is especially dangerous for them.
The next big hurdle are the borrowers in the Camp Hathor mine ... It is packed to the brim with borrowers
My 0 dodge max evasion char is not at the end game yet. We'll see how things work once I reach the pre-DC elevator fight.
Also, he show complete lack of understanding of how game mechanics and basic math works. Read thread from the start for examples.I guess it's because he's not a native-English speaker, and if you pay attention to his posts here and in RPG Codex (no offense to Fenix) he's still learning to explain in English properly.
And if you're talking about how he stated that he would miss more because of using Balor's Hammer with 1 or 2 less STR requirement (of which you stated that could be anywhere between 5-15% penalty to THC), I think I personally understand what he meant by that. Underrail's combat is dice/RNG-oriented, and any attacks that's below 90% could miss few times in a row. Because of that, Fenix preferred to deal damage consecutively instead of risking to miss at (probably) a critical point. Besides, he's doing fine (died once to Carnifex, died twice in Lurker's base, that's absolutely impressive).
Yeah, why the accusing tone, I like to hear how interesting builds like Fenix's work in practice, especially when they differ from my own.
Also, man, don't push Fenix like that. Died once in the Arena, and then died twice on the Lurker's base? Not bad at all.
player who are not getting the expansion should not be able to beat dominating difficulty with a dodge+evasion centric build?
Oh, wow. I think it's possible to conclude that number is kind of overkill, considering that both Dodge and Evasion can only reduce enemy's THC up to 60%.
I'd like to use this opportunity to ask at the very least epeli and maybe even Wildan: What is the most optimal number of Dodge and Evasion that you need, AFTER synergy+stat bonus+equipment bonus+feat abilities bonus?
Why reloading screen at all?
I died once during Arena.
I tried to assault Lurkers base, and even with that evasion, crossbower hit me every second shot, and sniper hit me with Aimed Shot - barely survived, 10+ hp left, died two times.
Wonder what to do with the lump of coal I just found...
Too far? Sorry man, I think this nerf hit its target rather well. But you make a good point about infused leather being lower quality than other very high-end materials, especially after the expansion's increased content level.
