This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive. ~

Subject:Anything to figure armor vs damage
if you are hit what would the difference be with each point of armor unbuffed vs buffed. Is there any difference melee vs magic?
i.e., if you have al 200 amuli vs al 400 or 600 with buffs - and/or individual armor type slash protect 100 vers slash protect 900. Of coarse the higher one is better. But what would the damage be +/- at each range?
Anything to show the magic or melee number or attack % change with evey point of armor?
Does every tink of armor reduce the damage from magic or melee attach or is it a combination of armor and melee and magic defense?

that's one thing about AC that I've never particularly liked is that for Melee damage, physical armor AND protection spells both reduce the damage amount, but for Magic damage, the physical armor plays NO part it in, and only the protection spells are calculated to mitigate the damage.
I think it should have always been that physical armor protects against physical attacks, and magical armor protects against magical attacks. Then it doesn't matter if I have a protection spell on in an Olthoi Lair... the protection spell is useless and would make sense to bane the armor instead because the bane increases the physical armor protections.
