Burgeoning Battle Gamma EvilEye Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 As much as the bow skill anyway. Seems only half as effective. I have been running around with a 10 dex nephil with 2 in bows and 3 in sharpshooter, and he regularly does half - 2 / 3 the damage of my 2 nephils with 2 dex and 10 in bows and 1 in sharpshooter ( all using cavewood bows ). I was under the impression that dex, bow skill, and sharpshooter all increased the damage with bows by the same amount, but its clearly not the case in my experience.

Well-Actually War Trall Fort Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I would not be surprised if that were true. Remember that in the previous Avernum games, dexterity only gave half as much bonus. I would be annoyed if Jeff let the description slip up like this, though.

Rotghroth Rhapsody The Lurker Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Dexterity does not [EDIT : seem to] increase bow damage in Avernum 4. Strength, on the other hand, may increase it a little, I think. EDIT : Okay, I think we need an expert to confirm this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unflappable Drayk Radix Malorum Est Cupiditas Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I believe you meant noobs. Trolls incite flamewars. Noobs get flames directed at them. EDIT: I'M A PIRATE!!1!1!!11one1!!1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
