Dummy combat question

[Leomond]

Hello,

I was reading the combat related infor on the site (http://www.uosecondage.com/stratics/combat.html) and I got confused with the Chance to Hit formula:

Code: Select all

FORMULA: Hit Chance= ( Attacker's Weapon Ability + 50 ) ÷ ( [Defender's Weapon Ability + 50] x 2 ) 

The defender's weapon ability is any combat skill? As Wrestling, Mace or Swords? Or the skill used depends on the attacker's weapon?

Let's say I attack a mage with 100 wrestling with my bow. The formula will use the defende's wrestling skill?

Thanks a lot for reading it and for answering it: )

There are no blocks only strikes, when the fist comes in strike the arm...when the kick comes strike or kick the leg in appropriate fashion. And when the arrow flies strike it with your weapon so the enemy cannot retireve it from your corpse

The weapon skill of the defender is the skill of the wepon he is holding, or wrestling if unarmed.

So for a mage, this would usually be wrestling. But if a player has 100 Wrest, and 100 Sword, but was wielding a mace, he would be virtually unmissable.
