It would be helpful to state how you came to that conclusion. Bonuses to levels of damage are hard to accurately evaluate given the range of damage presented. Also +3 levels of damage but only +10% to hit is an unusual combination; most of Jeff's games uniformly bundle +1 with +5% if both bonuses are given.

If you look at the columns in my chart showing change in average damage (the "+ Obs" and "+ Icy" colums) you will notice that for Melee Weapons skill, Berserker skill, Mighty Warrior trait and Bless spell, the gains are nearly identical for both weapons. For Strength skill however, the gains are about 50% greater for the Spear. The discrepancy between nearly identical and 50% greater is too wide for me to chalk up to random chance when using 20 data points for each average.

 

You claim that "any increase will be more noticeable on the spear", but in fact this was not the case; Strength was the only increase that was significantly more noticeable on the spear.

 

Additionally, if each point of Berserker added 1 level, we would expect the +10 Berserker results to be similar to the +10 Strength results, but they aren't.

Interesting numbers. Some of these make a lot of sense (i.e., the Mighty Warrior formula) but they fail to account for a few things, such as the fact that weapon damage die affects Strength more than Melee Weapons. I'm interested to hear how you arrived at these numbers.

Where does the 3 levels and 10% data come from?

I notice Jeff refers to Cheeseball as "it" and not "he" as he is referred to in the games. Perhaps Solberg had Cheeseball neutered. That would explain their animosity...

Uh, that's how time is recorded. Midnight is 12 AM, followed by 1 AM, 2 AM, ... 11 AM, then noon is 12 PM, 1 PM, and so on. He edited it about 10.5 hours later.

I can actually think of two console RPGs that took this idea even further. Phantasy Star III: Generations of Doom has a number of different possible player character sets and endings depending on which marriages take place in the game. Dragon Quest V similarly gives you a choice of whom to marry, and allows you to play as your own children, although in that case the choice of wife only seems to affect your kids' hair color.

There is an argument to be made for a few names based on non-canon material related to canon. Given that Jordan Bojar drew art for spidweb, the existence of a beta tester for Exile named Andrew Solberg is hard to ignore.

"Aimee Kilser" definitely appears in the games once -- in either E/A 1 or E/A 2. Linda never has a last name in the games. I suspect Yonther comes from either Chains or Zankozzie's Big Mistake, two scenarios featuring Linda's family.

 

And go read the talk page, doofus.

FYT.

In all seriousness, chitrachs are good in moderation. A4 is continuing to sound good. I wonder what Cheeseball was doing during A4?

The mage is Hiroki, right? The ogre lair has two levels, one of which stretches pretty far to the east -- it sounds like you may have missed that level. The mage is on the opposite end from the chieftain.

If you didn't use cheat codes (the shift-D box) either, then a lot of people would love to hear how you did it. That would be big news.

You can't keep Greenfang permanently without cheating. Greenfang will turn back when you pass the Cairn Gates if she didn't already leave.

The bottom monitor was handcrafted to fit your neck and chest with a blowtorch. Duh!

It is just you.

...and the moderators frown on topics whose only impact is to cause fighting. Khyryk, be kind.

 

About the topic, there's nothing inherently evil about it, but the things you mention have already been discussed in numerous other topics you can find on this board. It would make more sense to post a specific question or request.

As usual, the Quick Strike description is incorrect.

 

You get TWO INDEPENDENT chances to get +1 AP, each equal to 5% per point of Quick Strike. So with 5 Quick Strike you have two 25% chances, which means you have about a 43.5% chance of getting at least +1 AP. With 10 Quick Strike you have two 50% chances, or about a 75% chance of getting at least +1, but still only a 25% chance of getting +2. And so on.

The possibility of a zombie muffin brings a whole new, disgusting meaning to juju zombie.

Also, the two Ornks in charge of everything are named Benjy and Frankie.

ResEdit won't work on newer systems. You need a newer application, such as ResFool.

Thanks for advocating the harrassment, belittlement, humiliation, threatening, and embarassment of everyone who isn't a member of these boards.

 

Seriously, though, personal invective has no place here. I don't care who you're targetting. It's contagious, it threatens to turn these boards into the same cesspit of flames that most internet message boards eventually collapse into, and on my watch, I'll swat it down faster than you can say "Feisty Slap of Pain!"

 

And that, as they say, is that.

Suspicious Vlish, please don't make personal attacks.

Indeed, copy the save files.
