consistent across all relevant effects (treating avoidance
and hit chance bonuses equally).
Rule ArcheryHitPenalty will now calc correctly (Was doing basically nothing)
New field npc_types 'Avoidance' (add avoidance bonus to npc)
Rules for setting min / max chance to hit
Implemented innate defensive and range procs
Implemented ability to fine tune AI casting behavior/timers
Global rules for AI casting behavior/timers
NPC Ranged attack updates, set skill and ammo type in npc_types
Various clean ups in attack related functions.
Other minor fixes.
See Change Log, +required, +optional SQL
SE_SkillProcSuccess (now implemented correctly)
to function more accurately and efficiently, AA supported.
This may need to be updated in the future, if more live
spells readily become avialable to test with.
-Fix for calculation error when rune was to be removed.
-Updated to support these spell effect limit values which
give a max amount per hit/spell that can be mitigated.
-Updated to allow support for these spells effects when
the max (rune value) is set to zero, which essentially
gives you unlimited mitigation but typically there is
a limit value set.
for custom servers that have balanced their content around having more than 1 aug proc on weapons. By having this rule set to 'false' you revert this functionality.
This rule is set to 'true' by default as the original functionality from Live was intended to be
Updates to a few rule due to new/corrected parse data.
All behaviors defined from weeks of extensive live parsing
Root Break Chance from DD now will scale based on level difference.
Root has a baseline aproximately 6% chance to break per check when target has
at 0% chance to resist spells.(ie green cons 60 levels lower with tash).
Fear has an approximately 70% chance to trigger a resist check each tick
to determine if it will fade early. (no baseline break chance)
Charisma less than 100, gives -20 resist mod to intial fear casts
Charisma from 100 to 255 will progressively reduce this mod to 0.
Charisma DOES NOT effect UNDEAD fears
Charmisma less than 75 significantly increase CHARM/MEZ/LULL resist rates.
Mez spells will now also use charisma resist check, as they do on live.
Removed all the old rune flags now that none of them are used.
Fixed issues where runes would not fade properly if damage = remaing rune amount
Fixed issue where runes would stop absorbing damage if you had multiple runes.
New rules:
Combat:RogueCritThrowingChance, Combat:RogueDeadlyStrikeChance, Combat:RogueDeadlyStrikeMod
Rogue throwing crit rate is rather ridiculous. These rules might need tweaking
but they gave me fairly live-like results, even with AA added
Clients that also support seeing others DoTs will now see them
if they don't filter them.
Note: HoTs 'mine only' doesn't seem to be different from 'show'
Broke up the logic to be a bit easier to follow
Procs should happen in the order that they do on live
Proc rates for spell buff procs should be more consistent with live
Shot list of things that changed:
AC Softcap is based on your defensive skill (the scaling factors
are based on at least previously stated dev quotes)
The over AC Softcap returns are now based on exact calculations
made with the Armor of Wisdom AA.
Shielding item bonus and Melee mitigation spell bonus (nerfs)
NPCs damage will now correctly follow the
"damage base + (damage interval * [1, 20])" formula.
These changes might seem a little weird but I didn't want to change
any of the other damage situations since they were fairly good, but
they still could use a revamp as well.
New rules:
RULE_BOOL ( Combat, OldACSoftcapRules, false) // use old softcaps
RULE_BOOL ( Combat, UseOldDamageIntervalRules, false) // use old damage formulas for everything
RULE_REAL ( Combat, WarACSoftcapReturn, 0.3448) // new AC returns
RULE_REAL ( Combat, ClrRngMnkBrdACSoftcapReturn, 0.3030)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, PalShdACSoftcapReturn, 0.3226)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, DruNecWizEncMagACSoftcapReturn, 0.2000)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, RogShmBstBerACSoftcapReturn, 0.2500)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, SoftcapFactor, 1.88)
If you want to use the old calculations only, set
Combat:OldACSoftcapRules and Combat:UseOldDamageIntervalRules to true
