AC biffed? #60

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Sorry if I missed the change early on, but has AC been significantly nerfed? I 
remember feeling pretty safe fighting Greater Titans with an AC of 220. With a 
now-deceased character that had AC of 257, great storm wyrms were still dealing 
very respectable melee damage to me, and even a mature gold dragon was managing 
to hit me on a regular basis. Intended or not?

See Issue 28 and Issue 30.

You can check out the Weaponsmith for a comparison of old vs. new.  In your 
case, you went from expecting to receive 5% of the Storm Wyrms melee damage to 
13%, which is a 260% increase in damage, so probably noticeable.  Both dodge 
rate and protection rate have been adjusted down, but with a 257 AC, you've 
maxed out the protection rate at 60% and are only noticing the dodge rate 
changes.

Your current AC : 257                                                    
Protection rate :  60% (Was  60%)                                        

Level of Monster:   0   10   20   30   40   50   60   70   80   90  100  
Dodge Rate      :  95%  95%  95%  91%  77%  66%  59%  53%  48%  44%  41% 
Average Damage  :   2    2    2    3    9   13   16   18   20   22   23  
Old Dodge Rate  :  95%  95%  95%  95%  95%  87%  77%  69%  63%  57%  53% 
Old Avg Damage  :   2    2    2    2    2    5    9   12   14   17   18
