A question about Strenght

[Skree]

I have noticed a change... now each point of strenght add one hit points... but the bonus to damage is still there, right? I mean, a strenght 15 fighter should do more damage than a measly strenght 7 farmer, or not?

Armagan?

Armagan, could you answer, please? i'd like to know

Actually I removed the bonus to damage for strength since you can increase damage with power strike.

Hmm... the bonus from power strike is lower than those of other "power xyz" skills. 5% versus 10% if i recon. I think more strenght is only right to add to damage done in melee combat.

I mean, Armagan, if you get a punch in your face from a 10 years old is quite different than if you get it from Rocky Marciano, isn't it?

(sorry for te PM, by the way)

Sorry for the second post just after the first one but... you also have the iron flesh skill, right?

So you have skills for both of the purposes... i just think that more damage makes more sense than more hit points...

I... think... you could perhaps rise a bit the iron flesh bonus to, perhaps, 5% hit points bonus instead of 3%, adding 1 damage for each point of strenght, and leaving power strike at its measly 5% per point as it is now.

Just my opinion, of course

OK. Maybe I should just undo the change and return to the previous model. I just made the change because +1 to health is much simpler than +%0.5 to weapon damage except crossbows... :=P

That'd be sweet...

But... what do the others think? This discussione seemed awfully two-ways...

 

[demonachizer]

why not have a +1 to health every level gained (or .5 or something)?
