Grats? I don't know what you want me to say. I'm sure you CAN accurately calculate max damage, supposing you know the right formula for it.

Well the page that I linked for you does say that these are the things to use to calculate max damage with the stock emu code.


If you modify the damage formula on the wiki a bit it seems like it gives a pretty accurate estimation of damage on p99.

Use ((skill + strength) - 75) / 75 + damage bonus instead of the stock formula given. That formula would say your max damage is just about 34 (I don't know your weapon skill exactly), and it is within a few points of the max damage I have done on a few logs I could check just now with my rogue.

I can't figure out how to tweak the backstab formula to be more accurate in the 2 minutes I've looked at it though. It is giving much-too-low numbers.
