How Much Damage??? (in Contests)

Send your fees to Safety Deposit Box, 5k a guess.
I'm gonna get between 1-5 Slayer Arrows (hopefully down to 1, but whatever can be done) which are currently being whittled down to that number by Draco.
When I get it, it'll be boosted to 100k NW, almost all of it on the X.
These arrows will then be given to SNK3R, who will retrain to get back that 10.5M STR.
He'll try and get ahold of the biggest ELBow he can find, and fire off these arrows and record the damage done.
Here's the contest: Guess how much damage is going to be done on the biggest hit. All the fees go to the pot, whoever has the closest guess wins the whole thing.
Ready, set, Go!
I am guessing (and probably will be wrong) ...
15 800 000!
The only real variable is how much 100k is going to get you...but I'm going to say 25,000,000
DrAcO5676 (Elros) 71.197.226.116 BBQ (Safety Deposit Box) $80535 11:16 PM EDT for the pot......
Considering I hit with 14 million with +12 BG's, 1.1 million str, x809 on the bow and a 54k nw x2000 seeker arrow I would guess prolly about 76 million
-1,435,723,018...someone has to break the ELB again ;)

will he be using BG? if not i'm going to guess 250,000,000. if he is, will i be able to get another guess? because just +10 BG can give you 30% more damage which will GREATLY alter the damage outcome.

September 20 2006 7:23 PM EDT
Ah, i forgot to include +8 bgs... makes a rather large difference...

September 20 2006 8:21 PM EDT
My guess is he'd be using BG's in order to get the most damage possible.
And....
The ARROW is currently at: A Slayer Arrow [15x22000] (+100) NW: 112,344
When I try to merge....
1,338 Slayer Arrows [15x22000] (+100)
Cost: $154,053,457

September 21 2006 4:29 AM EDT
yes, you should get sut or someone that is single minion to retrain everything in health so we are guaranteed a hit
QBOddBird
September 21 2006 5:32 AM EDT
Miss....haha....There's 176 PTH on the bow, PTH on the ToA (probably 80-ish?), and 300 PTH on the arrow. If anyone in this game can dodge 556 PTH, I'll agree entirely that Evasion is smurftacularly overpowered.

Johnnywas (The Clash) 213.152.230.220 BBQ (Safety Deposit Box) $5000 -- damage pot 10:44 AM EDT
I'm going to reckon 129,000,000.
But you know it's either going to make us all go O.O or look very disappointed, wandering off saying, 'was that it?'
QBOddBird
September 21 2006 10:58 AM EDT
OK, so it'll be more like an hour 'till its fired. Anyways, it won't be long, that's the point. So there.
And yeah, JW, you're right - but I think everyone'll Oh. =D

My guess is that the damage will be so huge that it will cause a critical mass overload, and the damaged character will auto-reset, and we'll never actually know :P
Then there'll be huge controversy over the damaged character's owning player's desire to have his reset character restored, and then...
Aw, I'm just kidding - I say 333,333,333...

If that's the case then I should have put another 1 in front of my guess.
Looks like Psywolf is nearest.....

That's some damage. Makes the fact that I've just managed to get over 400k per strike pretty puny!

All that damage, and you still lost! :P

What does a base arrow do for damage with that set up?
