Question Weapon upgrade Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page
Id in game: 14030

Problem description:
I have a Hunting Rifle +3 - requirements = LEVEL: 23, STRENGTH: 17, AGILITY: 31, PERCEPTION: 26, INTELLIGENCE: 25, KNOWLEDGE: 27

I just found another Hunting Rifle - went to upgrade it to +3, and it stated the requirements = LEVEL: 24, STRENGTH: 17, AGILITY: 32, PERCEPTION: 27, INTELLIGENCE: 26, KNOWLEDGE: 28

Why are they different?

Thanks

Description of Absorber from the Tutorial:

Absorber
Little is known about origin of this bloodline. Maybe except for one thing: they're new to the world of vampires. They appeared on territory of former China, when the war was almost over. Many suspect, that they're product of Chinese experiments.

Arcana specialization: Bloodmagic Racial traits: HP +10% BP +10% easiness +5%

Retrieved from Bloodwars Races



When you look at the requirements on the upgrade screen it doesn't take into account the Absorbers 5% easiness bonus, so on the requirements between 20 and 39, it drops by 1 (5% of 20 - 39 rounded down) when the actual +3 item is held by an absorber.

its annoying that absorbers have to do a little maths when upgrading Tongue
it puts me off of upgrading past my lvl when it tells me that my stats are no good Frown
cant there be some sort of green subtext like with sets ????

In that case every time i goto my armoury it has to adjust for my absorber status and change everything to -5% stats reqs
if the database can handle that im sure it can handle showing me the stats that i would really need to be able to upgrade an item and not just the stats everyone else would see Tongue

See if i understand it correctly.

Take an example of an Requirement of 36.

You have 5 percent easiness.

1. You can calculate: 36*0,05= 1.8 = rounded down 1 36-1 = 35

2. You can calculate 36*0.95 = 34.2 rounded down = 34

What is the correct way to calculate?

It shouldn't be rounded down. We have to define: what does it mean to have the required stats? It means that you have to have > or = stats.

The smallest number that is bigger than 34,2 is 35.

think of it this way, the stat requirement is dropped by 1 for every 20 full levels of requirement on the equipment (1 in 20 is 5%).

so:
lvl 1 - 19 is less than 1, so =0
lvl 20 - 39 = drop of 1
lvl 40 - 59 = drop of 2

etc.

so divide the stat or level requirement by 20, and then take the whole number from the original requirement (30/20 = 1.5 ...... drop of 1, new requirement 29)

it means you should not post in threads that have not been used for more than a month ( in your case 2 weeks! )

THIS particular post, falls under the category of 'spam' as it has nothing to do with the topic at hand. this is also a warnable offence, so please dont do it in future either.

Necroposting= if a topic has been dead (dead = no one has replied to it) a long time (several months) (depends which section of the forum its in) then you can recieve a warning for your post.

yes, im minibob in game. if you wish to continue this discussion, or have further queries, please feel free to PM someone.
