Doesn't send him to the formulas he actually needs. Pfft. Damage per shot = tanh( attack(random(0.6 to 1.666)) / (defense 5) ) * damagecap NPC Damage cap = 2.5 * rank. He did give you the player damage cap though. So that's good. The following is the page with all in game formula's the playerbase has managed to crack so far as well: http://galaxylegion.com/wiki/index.php/Equations _________________ SIG'D The Prisoner wrote: You know something's wrong when the Trade Outpost sub-forum has the most interesting topics Well it was an ill considered idea in the first place.

What I am really curious about is the reciprocal damage from attacking a ship. How is that calculated. _________________ Exterminus Leader Imminent Cataclysm Proud Member, OBEvanKanobe Royal Big Rusty Behind with Huge Ego Society

I went PVP today against someone who was about 100 levels below me. Our ships were the same size. I used a couple of probes and found his off and def was about the same as mine with maybe a 100 pts difference either way. When I attack him, he does 3000 damage to me an I do 200 to him. Consistently. What could cause that? _________________ Exterminus Leader Imminent Cataclysm Proud Member, OBEvanKanobe Royal Big Rusty Behind with Huge Ego Society

What could cause that? are you sure the ship was the same size ? my suspicion is that you have many more decks than your target does ... _________________ Rank 3950 Litheor Governor 100% DCR r385-r2200 GL Marauder #26 _____________ PvP leaderboards: 70212 raids: #1; 40852 kills: #1; 96377 hacks: #3;

On a bad day, even on desktops itll take 5-10 seconds for the KVT trigger to show _________________ Slow Ranking Noob, following the footsteps of TheBlackPearl Leader of The Fallen Unbuffed Rank 781 \| Attack: 192437 T.O.s: 146116 \| Defense: 114171 \| Click below to join us and we will rise together!

If not, a ship could be the same deck size and same "defense" but effective defense could be much higher when they are attacked. _________________

Always attack once before using probes, otherwise you read values that could be from NPC or bases or whatever they last dealt with. _________________ Treeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee That's meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
