an invar-hilted glaes rapier 3x Exceptionalish Damge Weighted 07/18/2012 04:42 PM CDT
I've been lugging this thing around for a week or two now and can't find a warrior to assess it so I'll post some clips below to show the weighting calculation. Lore song is as follows:

Roundtime changed to 4 seconds.
As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the glaes rapier in your hand...

The harmonics generated tell you that the rapier does extra damage when it strikes.

The rapier resonates with your voice, revealing some details of its temporary enhancement:
The rapier's enhancement will degrade when it scores a successful strike.
It should be able to withstand an incredible amount of uses before its enhancement has completely degraded away.
When its enhancement has degraded away, the item will lose its special ability.

It's glaes, so it's 3x as well

Testing showed the weighting seemed to fluctuate which occurs when its over a certain amount (heavy?). Clips are as follows:

You thrust with an invar-hilted glaes rapier at a jungle troll!
AS: +157 vs DS: +46 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +76 = +211
... and hit for 25 points of damage!
Minor puncture to the abdomen.

111 margin X .125 (scale Df) = 13.875 Trunc to 13. Crit is + 5 damage so 13+5=18. 25-18 is "7" damage added

You thrust with an invar-hilted glaes rapier at a jungle troll!
AS: +157 vs DS: +37 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +85 = +229
... and hit for 36 points of damage!
Minor puncture to the right leg.

129 margin X .125 (scale Df) = 16.125 Trunc to 16. Crit is + 5 damage so 16+5=21. 36-21 is "15" damage added
(Placing it in exceptional territory)

You thrust with an invar-hilted glaes rapier at a jungle troll!
AS: +157 vs DS: +87 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +47 = +141
... and hit for 13 points of damage!
Thrust glances off the jungle troll's knee without a lot of effect.

41 margin X .125 (scale Df) = 5.125 Trunc to 5. Crit is +0 damage so 5+0=5. 13-5 is "8" damage added

You thrust with an invar-hilted glaes rapier at a jungle troll!
AS: +157 vs DS: +87 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +75 = +169
... and hit for 21 points of damage!
Minor strike under the right eye, that was close!

69 margin X .125 (scale Df) = 8.625 Trunc to 8. Crit is +1 damage so 8+1=9. 21-9 is "12" damage added



If anyone has a warrior that wants to assess this to verify (and we can adjust the pricing accordingly) I'd be fine with that. I'm on Teras, but I'm sure we can work delivery out to wherever is necessary. If any of my calculations are in error I apologize, but I think I did them correctly. Corrections are welcome.

Unfortunately damage weighting is now somewhat randomized, as you have noted.

The bells of Hell
go ting-a-ling-a-ling
for you but not for me
