Combat Art Stats Difference

coldhart · 01-15-2009, 11:50 AM

Head Crush Adept !!!. As a 73 Berserker when i looked at this i saw stats of 255-670 crushing damage. When my 20 something Shawdowknight went to the house in Freeport to buy it it showed different stats so i looked again just for kicks with a level 71 Ranger. Again different stats. Is this the way it has always been and i just was blind? If my little Shawdowknight bought it would the stats be lower than if the 73 berserker bought it? Sounds kind of dumb but i don't want to spend 5 plat on something i don't want. Thanks for any help.

At least part of it is scaling based on your +CA dmg modifier.

High and lower strength values change the damage rates of combat arts as well.

same as spell, if I look at a SK spell with my bruiser, I see 7k

If I look the same spell with my coercer, I see 13 -15K I think. Because of int and +spell damage.

the same is still the same but scales with your stats (stats must be usefull for something) SMILEY

the stats on a spell/combat art can change depending on who is examining them. this is normal.

As is that the stats are based on a mob at your level.

so even though dmg is 100-500. but you are going against something a level above you.

the actual stats which you don't see in the examine would be 50-400.

the info is based on you and a mob at your level.

This explanation is over simplefied; you can search the forums for more specific information.

It looks different but who buys it will have no effect on it's stats.
