I noticed an odd thing about some NPC's
Running on Akka's Installer
Running around as a low level. I found myself wandering bored, thinking of what to test.
I decided to start randomly attacking people.
Eventually i found a red npc that i was able to hit. and hit. and hit.
For some reason he was missing me. I'm only level 8!
I decided to log in my GM account.
#showstats
Level 61
192 str
compute_tohit: 7
compute_defense: 33
I have only noticed this in starter zones, but this is reoccurring through many of them. There are dozens of NPC's like this. I wont post specific NPC's because they are all over the place.
This explains why my level 8 could get off 10-20 hits before it was even able to hit me.
---------------------------------------------------------
Now that i know about it. What can i do about it?
I attempted to go into the database, find their stats, and update them. Sadly there wasn't a compute_tohit cell. I increased attack speed and strength, but this did not change thier compute_tohit.
If anyone has any advice i would love to hear it. I wouldn't mind manually updating each one(i'm sure there are a few hundred). As long as i could figure out how to update the chance to hit.
Thanks for listening!
