archery dmg
 
Ranger archery does not appear to get bonus dmg versus stationary targets in pvp.

I'll just write "evidence" here when it is easily testable in game

^ has other good stuff in it


** PvP **

- If a player is moving when using archery against a PvP target, they have a reduced chance to hit their target.
- Archery in Player vs. Player combat in now reduced to 66% damage.

This is a result of the griefing from the archery mastery/infinite quiver BS ^.

The subject of this thread was already fixed 10 months ago.

I don't currently have the means to confirm this ingame myself, but when looking at the stock eqemu source I noticed the following in attack.cpp:
Code:

if(attack_skill == SkillArchery)
  PvPMitigation = 80;

It seems archery damage was initially reduced to 66% dmg in PvP during the LoY expansion, then increased to 80% during GoD.
At any rate, it should be full dmg during p99's era.

Will add this to the list of things to look into.

You got anything on item loot being classic or not? Thought I might as well check with you.

I looked. Archery does have a 20% mitigation penalty in the code.

No shit?

Archery damage is horrible here. With the highest dmg bows its like 40-50 dmg max (non ranger crits etc) while boulders are landing for nearly 200s.
