Topic: Official Wiki update?

Is anyone still working on that wiki?

the recent patch has not changed the damage calculation formula as such, but since the variables have changed, the way its written in that wiki, you wont get a right result anymore.

Re: Official Wiki update?

Wiki's only work when you have an active playerbase. Otherwie it just becomes a labour of love like zortarg's guide.

Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

Re: Official Wiki update?

i would love to hear what zoom/alf's would say about it.

the Wiki contains kinda "dumbed" down, case-by-case formulas for hungarian math. But with the last patch, the cases have increased for those dumbed down ones.

if you want to calculate your damage mod, you have to differ between:
1. light bot / heavy mech (has a bonus for small or medium "x" weapons)
2. assault/mech (has a bonus for "x" weapons)

unchanged, but unlogical, cycletimes for missiles and turret weapons calculate slightly different, due to the cycletime bonus on missile bots is of a different kind then the one on turret bots.

the side-effect of that, is

1. cycle bonus on missile bots for missiles is WEAKER then cyclebonus on turret-bots for their race specific weapons
2a. small weapons have a slightly higher damage mod when equipped on an assault or mech then on a light bot
2b. medium weapons have a slightly higher damage mod when equipped on an assault or mech then on a heavy mech

*disclaimer - if you have no clue about the involved math... keep out of the discussion*
