20 Anatomy - 80 Wrestling?

[Sinatra SUN-FoW]

How much would the modifier even effect damage if you had 20.0 in Anatomy? Does it even make sense to have?

[BenBrawl]

with 20 anatomy, id say little to none

So does it make more sense to 100 wrestling or 100 anatomy?

[MatronDeWinter]

Well, anatomy is what, a 20% bonus to damage?

So consider 20% at 100 skill, and then X% at 20 skill.

(20*20) = 100x
400=100x
400/100=x
x=4

4% damage increase.

If a hally typically did like 25 damage on average (I just made that number up), then that would be like 1 extra damage I guess? Compare that to ~5 bonus damage with gm anatomy.
Though it really depends on when the anatomy modifier is applied in the formula.

I think your 80 wrestle would equate to you getting hit 10% more vs. a like skilled opponent. I don't think that would be worth it at all.

You need wrestling.

Thanks Matron - so I would suppose it would just make since to GM Wrestling opposed to Anatomy

I was under the impression that if you had GM Wrestling and you are mage during a fight you would have a greater chance of missing a Halberd swing from a GM Swordsman while casting. Is this not accurate?

Without 100 Wrestling, you will be completely dominated by anyone yielding a weapon. They will never miss. Wrestling is a must

sorry , havent understood the question properly :/

you need wrestling to avoid 100% getting hit chance. you just don't need anatomy for it. 20% of anatomy isnt worth reduced defense.

[uofuntime]

yup, just to add to that: if you're using wrestling for defense (dodging attacks), then anatomy is out of the question since you're not using it for damage. Wouldn't make sense to give a damage boost for wrestling.

wrestling is only a must if you are a mage

I'm pretty sure he has another weapon skill that the anatomy bonus would be used with. (like a tank mage or something).

That actually reminds me when I first started thieving in UO. I got wrestling thinking "This is great, I will never lose a weapon because I wont need one", worked it up to 80 or so, and then learned that it does like 1hp damage lol as an offense. lol
