New page

I have to think this is no longer correct, I have a character with AC 12 and spiny 1 that deals damage with spines. If the formula is correct how can 2d5-12 deal any damage? Could this be bonus AC from armour instead?--[[User:Alphachief|Alphachief]] ([[User talk:Alphachief|talk]]) 07:24, 16 June 2015 (CEST)

		+	Updated. The new mechanics seem a bit odd, so I'll post the relevant code (from melee.cc):
		+
		+	const int mut = (you.form == TRAN_PORCUPINE) ? 3
		+	: player_mutation_level(MUT_SPINY);
		+	if (mut && attacker->alive() && coinflip())
		+	{
		+	int dmg = random_range(mut, you.experience_level + mut);
		+	int hurt = attacker->apply_ac(dmg);

	:I remember seeing a thread on the forums where people were discussing how bad the spiny mechanics were; I'm pretty sure the damage formula got changed as a result of that. Not sure what the new formula is, but at least it sounds like Spiny isn't totally nerfed by armor anymore.		:I remember seeing a thread on the forums where people were discussing how bad the spiny mechanics were; I'm pretty sure the damage formula got changed as a result of that.
