Yes, being encumbered lowers your agility, but we have no reason to think MOBs are affected by encumberance.

People still argue all the time as to whether skills like smithing go up based on your STR or INT or WIS or whatever.

From my extensive use of tradeskills on live and other emus, I've come to the (albeit uninformed) conclusion that having a high WIS will give you more successful attempts on average, but raising of skill seems entirely random from what I've seen.

I've almost always trade skilled on a High Elf of one form or another, and I've noticed a far better success % in crafting with them (high wis/int) than I do with elves and dorfs and the like with whom I'd fletch or smith with. I still swear Bubbles is the best smith I've ever had, and her base STR is like 75 or so.

so /shrug. Maybe we'll never fully know, unless the devs wanna slap some code and debugs on us. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But ppl would surely argue about that in the EC tunnel for hours.
