Combat Skill level caps.

Post by 0racle »

combat skills can be boosted so high its almost unreasonable. and in any minor form of realism you cant punch a bear and kill it.
nor should an unarmed person be able to survive a direct stab of a curved sword with no armor.

i believe that marksmanship, melee, and unarmed should cap at 200.
it would make battles more realistic, and armor and weapon workmanship would be all the more important.

just an idea.
not everyone can be like Chuck Norris.

By what reasoning did you arrive at such a nice, round, arbitrary-sounding number?

If you cap combat levels and focus on "armor and weapon workmanship", what of UA? UA is just that. UN.ARMED. No weapons.
"Normal" is only a difficulty level in video games - Aso11

100 seemed too small and 300 seemed too big.

unarmed can still have armor and strangling is nice.

and 200 comat skill in unarmed is enough to cause serious damage.

The problem is your perception of size is not the same as everyone else's. A begineer will be like "100, wtf that'd take forever and is way too leet!" and a veteran will be like "Bitch please, my paving alt has 300 mm!"

No need to add numbers to this thing, just say add caps.
