The formula might have been different for EQ Classic and Kunark.

I just remember doing sebillis for months in kunark as a troll warrior with 255str using a 9/18 mainhand and 14/28 offhand. Using your formula, my mainhand would have been 49.7 max hit and offhand would be 60.2 max hit.

Even though the 14 damage weapon was in the offhand, it would get substantially higher hits than the 9dmg mainhand weapon. It definitely didn't cap at 60. I remember being able to hit for 70 or so with it. I'm 99% sure the formula you posted is wrong, at least for Kunark era.

My formula of 70.7 offhand sounds much more accurate. I actually think it maxed out at 72.

I'm positive your formula is wrong because I used a Tantor's Tusk (50/60 2h) in test of tactics on EQ live when Velious was highest expansion. It hit for over 300 per swing, 100% sure. Abacab told me the dmg bonus on that is 49 at level 60. With my formula it comes out to the following:

(255str + 250 piercing)/100 + 49DmgBonus = 302.5 max hit

With your formula it wouldn't break 300.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I also dug this up off the internet so you can probably figure out what the correct dmg formula is off that:

"59 monk during Kunark with Imbued Fighter Staff, 255 str, max 2hb skill, epic atk buff, max hit 221"

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Using the formula I posted, the damage with that would be (255str + 252twohandblunt)/100 = 192.66 + dmg bonus = 221

So it would require a damage bonus of 28.34 on a level 59 with 40delay weapon for mine to be correct. I'm not sure if mine is 100% correct, but it looks way closer than yours does.

With your formula it comes out to 164.16 + dmg bonus = 221.
