Damage bonus

[demokatt]

I have some questions regarding damage bonus, preferbly for 2 hander SK.

1. Is there a damagebonus that depends on level and strength? Is it capped at strenght 150 for level 50 and 200 for level 60? So it doesn't go up more if I have 170 str at 50?

2. Is there an additional damagebonus for 2 hand wepons only? How is that calculated in that case?

3. Is there an additional damagebonus for slow weapons, like Oggok cleaver?

4. Regardless of bonus, does higher strength always makes your hits higher towards max damage? Does this work for all strength up to 255?

I'm not entirely sure the full mechanics for P99 but there are damage bonuses that ive been told about. I can tell you it is noticable dmg difference if you have max str compared to 100 less.

Ive always wondered about slower weapon damage bonus myself but have never been able to find solid info on it.

I don't think we've received the Luclin pre-launch package which included updates to combat skills for melee classes as well as damage bonus modifications for slow weapons.

Provided we have not reached this patch yet, we currently have damage bonus for weapon delays as follows:

delay<29= ((level - 28)/3) + 1
28<delay<40 = (level - 25)/2
39<delay<43 = (level - 25)/2 + 1
42<delay<45 = (level - 25)/2 + 3
45<delay = (level - 25)/2 + (delay - 31)/3

Max damage is ((offense + str)/100)*weapon damage + dmg bonus. Individual attacks are distributed across a standard distribution based on your maximum hit, so a higher strength shifts your damage interval and becomes less important as a percent of total damage contribution as you level and your offense increases.

I am sure someone will chime in with anecdote too if you prefer that ^^

Is there any place I can read what is probably going to be included in next patch?

Are you thinkin of October timeline patch maybe? Thats when 2handers get substantial more damage bonus. (Monks also get tripple attack)

But the 2h Damage Bonus revamp doesn't happen until the October patch - we still got a long ways to go.

So a good one hander ratio prob still better than 2h even for fearkiting solo?

from my experience i believe i was killing enemies quicker with a 2hander which had about the same ratio as my 1hander. maybe i was lucky on seeing more higher dmg hit, who knows.
