#36300153360 01/30/2007 08:49:07 Kill Code information

As we changed Holy Water, Wooden Stake, Silver Bullet, and EMP Device to actually miss this is some additional information.

Holy Water uses Thrown Accuracy
Wooden Stake uses Melee Accuracy
Silver Bullet uses Ballistic Accuracy
EMP Device uses Viral Accuracy

Makes sense, now if only those emps weren't so rare that I'll never use em :p

#36300153465 01/30/2007 11:00:47 Re:Kill Code information

I disagree with the order of these tho

Holy Water uses Thrown Accuracy

Wooden Stake uses Melee Accuracy

Doesn't really go in my mind.

well you use physcial strenght to drive a stake through them, and you throw a bottle of holy water so they do sound kinda right.

Spiffy. Now I just need to be able to code them -_-

Those consumables also use those damage types. Back in the day, I could milk sweet sweet damage out of Enhanced Silver Bullet + Firearms Skill SMILEY

They don't match if you turn them the other way either.
But the Stake animation does show that the character stabs from a close distance, while the whater is definitely thrown to the oponent.

It seems to me my character drinks the water and throws glass at the enemy.

Kisses the glass, raises it to the gods of immortality, then throws the bottle and after it hits the chest of the Succubus the glass breaks.

Thanks for that, makes sense really, give them all a different Acc to work with. The damage also reflects from the same tree right?

Since we know bullets get more damage with a Ballistic damage buff applied and stakes with melee etc, holy water using thrown damage too and viral for EMP

No the damage from these items is neutral because of how the damage is scaled vs a specific opponent type.

If it was based off a player's damage type you would see crazy damage numbers due to the multipliers involved against specific enemy types.

ok, could you explain to me why when i activate marial arts prowess and use a stake it does more damage but not with the bullets or the water, but if i use firearms skill the bullets do more but not the stakes or the water?

There was also a Passive Bonus in the Gunslinger or Duelist tree, back when CR2 was first launched. Something about a 7 extra levels in Silver Bullet attacks? I don't remember entirely; it was wierd.
