This number shows the potential maximum damage the weapon will do per second at its base speed. This number is modified by the speed (SPD) of the weapon. If the weapon is actually swung faster than the SPD of the weapon as we showed above, then the base DPS will increase linearly with the swing speed, and if the weapon is swung slower, than it will decrease linearly as well. This is very different than most other DPS based effects in DAOC. Damage Cap = DPS * SPD * 3 * (1 + (SPD - 2) * .03) This means that slow weapons receive a slight bonus to damage. For a 16.5 DPS weapon that is at SPD of 5 the maximum damage would be: Damage Cap = 16.5 * 5 * (1.09) = 89.925 This implies that your maximum damage would be 89.925. Weapon SPD Effective Bonus 2.5 1.5% 4.0 6.0% 5.5 10.5% http://roclar.net/DAoC/info.php#Melee Luzifa: freak Luzifa: delete your freak Luzifa: seyha why you always coward? Luzifa: running valkyn freak

According to the formula is this correct to what i should have ? Also does arrow type damage bonus play into the damage cap and if so, should the damage cap be minus the arrow bonus to find the currect value to calc with that formula. I was using the best arrow type.

It has been shown that the above formula is not correct in detail. I remember that it was not a 2 in the formula but 2.5. Uthgards implementation is based on live tests. It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience. Every bug gets fixed. Sooner or later.
