Re: Weapon and Armor Attributes

If I am crafting armor,
is there a bonus to the quality of the item if the item is exeptional.

I know for weapons its pretty much like it having might if it is exeptional,
just couldnt find any of the info regarding armor.

Thanks tess

Actually, unless it was changed, the code doesn't quite agree with the 30% number. And there is a durability bump of +20 for exceptional weapons. Here's the parts of the code that concern weapon damage and durability. +4 is halfway between might and force. It means that a runic weapon of force is exactly equal in damage output to a weapon of vanquishing with the same tactics modifier. Also note that for most weapons, base durability is a random number between 30 to 100, so an indestructible runic may not be much more durable than a lesser sword, or it may be close to the 255 maximum.

// Old quality bonus:
#if false
/* Apply quality offset
* : Low : -4
* : Regular : 0
* : Exceptional : +4
*/
damage += ((int)m_Quality - 1) * 4.0;
#endif

/* Apply damage level offset
* : Regular : 0
* : Ruin : 1
* : Might : 3
* : Force : 5
* : Power : 7
* : Vanq : 9

And this is armor durability:
public int GetDurabilityBonus()
{
int bonus = 0;

if ( m_Quality == ArmorQuality.Exceptional )
bonus += 20;

switch ( m_Durability )
{
case ArmorDurabilityLevel.Durable: bonus += 20; break;
case ArmorDurabilityLevel.Substantial: bonus += 50; break;
case ArmorDurabilityLevel.Massive: bonus += 70; break;
case ArmorDurabilityLevel.Fortified: bonus += 100; break;
case ArmorDurabilityLevel.Indestructible: bonus += 120; break;
}
