Combat Attack Bug

[Zerdiock]

Ive noticed when attacking there is a bug that has my character miss multiple times in a row when he has a 100+% AC (including the enemies BC subtracted). Based off the combat formula he should not miss if at all.

it may not be a bug.
the attack chance is determined as:
1. Determine the chance of the
attacker hitting the target. Call this
X.
2. Roll a 100-sided dice.
3. If the dice value is greater than X,
the attack is considered a miss and
no damage is done.
4. Otherwise, the attack is considered a
hit.

and what gears you are using?

actually, your AC minus the mob's BC DOES NOT EQUAL the hit chance...(that's why you CAN hit a mob that has a higher BC than your AC)
although the higher 'your AC minus the mob's BC' is, your attack chance does get higher, but the effect diminishes the higher you go.
that's why it can seem pointless to make 'your AC minus the mob's BC' stat higher after a certain point

Indeed there is a non linear formula used to compute the actual attack chance.
See http://www.andorstrail.com/wiki/doku.ph ... ion:combat
To sum up you never have 0% nor 100% chance to hit.
We will remove the "%" symbol after the AC and BC stats soon as it doesn't mean anything now.

In your case, it's just bad luck...

Note that in the Wiki it says "If C is low, then F will be 50", but this is not correct. There is no lower limit to F.

For a more detailed explanation see here: http://andorstrail.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4716. For some reason the images I posted in that thread have disappeared. So here they are again:

Could you upload them to an offsite image host and post the link here?


Thanks!


Edit: I found a graph here, and a table here. I've not seen your graph, so I can't say if yours would still be useful.

[rijackson741]

Here's an Excel spreadsheet with the graphs (as well as a couple of others too).

I get a 404 error trying to access that.

[rijackson741]

I guess I should have expected that. It's not just uploading of images that's currently broken, it's uploading of anything

Here's a Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2jgfka6u91v05 ... .xlsx?dl=0

I don't guarantee that will exist for ever.

I got it, thanks.
