I'll give 50K CBD to the first person to post (with source link) the current Ranged penalties to Physical attacks.

Its down at the bottom in the strengths and weaknesses section.

that is melee penalties when using a ranged weapon, he is looking for ranged round penalties to ranged weapons.

ok, that changelog talks about some damage reductions in ranged in addition to the evasion bonuses.

And this one is about how evasion and likely DBs can lower the chance to hit down to the base to hit of the weapon.

actually if im correct... DBs and evasion can make you miss completely even if you have a dex advantage with 0 PTH

Admindudemus [jabberwocky] May 5 2009 1:49 PM EDT

evasion and/or db's can not take cth lower than weapon bth. so you are not correct lostling.

Hey, Where is my money?

"actually if im correct... DBs and evasion can make you miss completely even if you have a dex advantage with 0 PTH"

Lostling is right, that's why they are called ranged penalties. I have missed in range with full DX advantage in range with my SoD. If you only have slight DX advantage it's even easier to miss in range with no pth.

Ranger, I see mention of the Ranged penalties here, but no amounts.

"* Bows (with maxed out archery) now have 90% base to-hit in the 3rd round of ranged combat, except the ELB which has 100% to-hit. Odds are still slightly lower in 1st and 2nd rounds."

And;

"* Slings and xbows also have slightly greater penalty to to-hit during 1st and 2nd rounds of ranged (but not 3rd round)."

So how much lower for the first two rounds (and that means with a HoC Ranged gets no penalties for 4 rounds...

Yes,

Jon never stated the exact penalties if that is what you were interested in.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] May 5 2009 7:01 PM EDT

Yeah, was trying to get those Dude versus You clacs correct. But we don't have the 1&2 round penalties (shame :() and the Evasion Bonus is too confusing. I can't make head nor tail tonight of which the current bonus amount per round is! lol!

ehhh, isn't that the penalties making you miss then rather than the db's or evasion?
