Bad Fighting Description Ingame
Posted: Monday, 20th February 2017, 18:36
This description ingame made me ignore Fighting on all my ranged characters, and it made me wonder why I kept missing with my bow. I assumed bows were missing by design since they are ranged and thus avoid taking so much damage.
Hand to hand means melee. So I ignored that skill for the most part (only getting it to 10 or so for some bonus HP).
But then I found this:
Leveled up more fighting and started hitting a lot more with my bow.
Bad description is bad.
Fighting skill increases your accuracy and damage in hand-to-hand combat, and
also increases your maximum health.

But then I found this:
beem: fighting[1/1]: The Fighting skill gives you a bonus to accuracy and damage in melee and ranged, and improves your hit points by Fighting * (3/2 + XL/14) (see {hp}). Its effect on your damage is 0.83x the effect of weapon skill (not counting increases in attack speed), so if you want to hit hard then train it too.
