Various calculations (ws, hps, parry...)

[Graveen]

Hello guys,

I was just browsing on charplan (http://daoctb.sourceforge.net/) and i would like to focus on the various calculations used.

They seems precise. What do you think about them ?

Cf attached file. This is lua but this is readable easily, example:

Code: Select all

function CalcWeaponspeed() local qui = stats.con.total if qui>250 then qui = 250 end local qui_factor = 1-(qui-50)/500 -- by Solomon (was (qui-!60!) ) local buff_factor = 1-(hast_buff + hast_item + hast_celerity)/100 mf_speed_factor = qui_factor * buff_factor end

Hey Graveen ,

I briefly investigated this (before I got into reading, reading, reading, reading programming basics in my free time ;D).

My findings were, that currently DOL calculation is not correct, but Live is inconsistent or at least it's hard to find a pattern for the borderline cases with (high values of) Qui/Melee%/Haste/Celerity involved (and these are the important ones in RvR).

Another test I did was basic swing speed with 50+ swings. My findings support qui-60 is correct with qui-50 was more than 1 second "too quick" at 60 quickness. It does also make a lot of sense, because 60 is the average basic stat amount (without any stat gains/investments).

I would like to investigate this a bit further and I will help were I can. I stopped investigating it further because my foundation is not good enough to actually fix things, even if I find the pattern.

Kind regards,

YaY

The entire melee damage formulations are incorrect. I've done extensive research on this area. Unfortunately, the code I wrote doesn't yet scale perfectlyly for any GameLiving other than GamePlayer. Reconstructing mythic's formulas has proven challenging.

I agree. Let's say i tend to see interesting the out of DOL tests, based only on live feedback, a brand new source.
