How long would take breaching a palisade?

Postby laudano » Sat Nov 27, 2010 5:46 pm

Useing a battering ram, 4 people involved but with low strength (31+27+21+12), how long would it take to break through the palisade? (after 24hs required for glue to dry)

"You will need at least 121 strength to damage it with a battering ram. (81 with a pickaxe)". That strength is it the raw attribute or may be it is affected by tools or any other factor?

As long as you guys don't equip pickaxe, you won't damage the palisade. If u guys have pickaxes, it will take a long time AFAIK...

loftar says pickaxes don't work on the battering ram.

Your damage is the square-root of your strength and you need 11 damage total on the battering ram to deal 1 damage to palisade.

The sum of the sqrt's of your guys' strength is 17, so you can certainly deal damage to a palisade with those 4 people. I estimate it will take you like 5-15 minutes to destroy a segment on the ram. Just disregard xweetard.

So, you are saying 5-15 minutes for 1 segment isn't long, Oddytard?

31+27+21+12

5 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 20 (ram) = 37 damage - 30 soak = 7 damage per chop.

2500 / 7 = 357.14285714285714285714285714286 = 358 chops. Each chop is 1 second. Accounting for water breaks, 15 minutes should be relatively accurate.
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.

Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.
