NPC Damage

**timeframe01** · 03/28/2006 17:33:49

Now, I just got on today to do some assassination missions. And i'd like to make it known right now that my belief is at 10 so keep that in mind.

Well, every now and then an enemy NPC will do "Arm Throw". I've had this thing do 90 damage, or even just 1 damage. However, I've also had it do over 600 damage 4 times and around 550 once. Also, whenever an enemy NPC does this attack, there's no animation for it.

(sorry bout the small writing, I also hate the way enemy NPCs dont have to wait before trying to interlock more than once)

What the hell is "Arm Throw"? Is that a new CR2.0 attack?

No, this is a Lupine-NPC only special ability, there's a couple others like the Succbus's Kiss, etc.

To the OP, the 500+ hits seem about right. They used to hit for 2000+ before they got balanced. If you're only getting hit for 1 or 90 by these specials then something's wrong, and you should /bug it.

JO thx.

it does the same for us players...if we hit a npc with our specials we do alot of damage, mainly if there specials that require a stat to activate

**timeframe01**

Yeah. I bugged it. I just thought it was strange to get hit with it for both 600 damage and 1 damage.

but what he's saying is they also have hit him for 1, and 90 damage...have you EVER hit an equal level NPC for 1 or 90 dmg with a special? That there is the bug.

it looks as if npc's suffer the same as us players do..

when the NPC change what fighting tatic it uses and on the same round tries to use a special it does 1damage

90damage may be its normal attacking damage

and 600 could be its special attack which it gave you a negative stat and pulled off

All NPC statsscript is not the same, you may fight a AIkidoGM NPC with the hacker stats or no stats (lmao he for got to use config hack), so thats why you get a crazy dmg read out from them. My pistonkick does 1,599 dmg every time cause of my stats, they made the npcs like us.

I think i understand what you're saying, but you see, i've been hit by both 600 damage and 1 damage from the very same NPC.
