Then again this means a change in the core formula so the damage and effectiveness isn't scales on comparison but to a high value for end game levels.
And using sqrt makes it harder to grow to the point of punching bears to death.

Oh why not instead of base damage * (stats) it's base damage + (stat1 * sqrt(stat2))?
The latter formula adds damage in as 'bonus' damage, not multiply the base damage to crazy amounts.

Because you can pretty much turn a 400 base damage weapon into 1500 using stats.

This basically limits UA damage and forces everyone to rely on Melee for 'actual' combat, instead of jump and punching everything.

Image
So:
Damage = basedamage + (sqrt(ql * str))?

Soldier Sword (400 dmg) + sqrt(ql 10 * 100 str) = 400 + 31.62 = 431 damage
If you got a q100 soldier sword and 100 str, it'd be +100 bonus damage?

This formula does forces everyone to rely on items to boost damage rather than stats.



GTFO of this topic plz

Yea, but the current distance you can do it with is a bit insane, you should be a lot closer imo

Who are you and please show a picture of you killing someone with atleast 500+ ua if you cant then you are just a noob who has never had a decent fight with anyone partially skilled and everyone will completely disregard your worthless input.

Who are you and why are you angrily demanding to be killed? :lol:

Next person insulting anyone over this discussion gets a time out. Either you guys discuss the topic at hand or you leave the thread alone. That also goes for bragging about how much better you are at pvp than others.

Nobody cares about that shit. No need to validate your own ego over a fucking game forums. Discuss the topic or shut up. Thanks.


Also, not sure why half of the posters here are using alts. You guys are scared you say something stupid about combat in front of the super leet combat pros and rather hide?

Well, this seems to be more of a general discussion than a specific suggestion. We have had this kind of thread in the Inn before so I am going to keep it here.

I think there is a difference between stiring shit up in Congress and having a discussion about game mechanics without showing your name. If you disagree with that please post in the Mod forum. Let us keep this on track. Thanks.
