Interesting stuff about DC

Postby Cheshire » March 1st, 2009, 1:47 am

Just a thread for interesting stuff about DC, technical aspect or not =)


I'll start a off: there are weapons where the next stat is not the next tier. For example, copying and pasting the stats for a buckler from Random's site

Code: Select all
Buckler
A    D    S
0    2    -1
0    2    0
0    3    0


A 1.0 tier Buckler is 3d -1s, so the following tiers would be...

1.1 * 2d = 2.2 --> 2d
1.2 * 2d = 2.4 --> 2d
1.3 * 2d = 2.6 --> 2d
1.4 * 2d = 2.8 --> 2d
1.5 * 2d = 3.0 --> 3d

So, a 3d Buckler (currently highest stat) is not a 1.3 tier as you would believe from simply looking at the table on Random's site, but in fact it is a 1.5 tier weapon. This happens for many weapons... any weapon with the "main" stat being below 10.

Actually, that makes sense. It would probably be more accurate to say that the 2d0s buckler could be anywhere from Tier 1.1 to Tier 1.4, as the game calculates stats as floats before converting to the integer stats you see when you get the item.

haha well the way the stats work is they drop the decimal, so if theres a weapon with 2.8d, it gets dropped down to 2d and you'll never know what the game calculated it as.
