Hello all, and thank you for a wonderful game.
Does anything besides Strength, Skill, and Quality of Weapon control how much damage is done to an NPC? (Race maybe?)
I just started playing few weeks ago, and last week I got one of my friends hooked on PS. We were grouped beating up on clacker in town, and noticed that he was always doing 5 to 8 points more damage than I was.
His strength is 40 compared to my strength of 42.
Both of us have a 2 skill in swords.
We had just bought our short swords (2 each) from the smithy and the quality was the same.
My damage was 7 to 12, compared to his damage of 15 to 20+
Of course we are both addicted to the game (so here I am at work posting this), I'm just curious about the difference.
