archery question

[MamoNT]

does an archer need Tactics? i am asking cause magic weapons(melee) give tactics bonus and magic bows give archery bonus

[Kraarug]

Yes, tacts still modify damage.

The Archery bonus gives you an advantage over other melee in that it gives you an edge in getting your shot off.

[MamoNT]

hm, so tactics gives more damage. and what anatomy does?

Anatomy provides an additional 20% towards your base damage, also allows you to res (if you have healing) and is crucial to curing poison with bandaids.

[MamoNT]

what you would me suggest to choose, Anatomy or Tactics (i dont have healing on my char)?

[MatronDeWinter]

tactics

Mamo, here is some help understanding how important tactics is to a weapon skill.

it is basically essential.

100 Tacts will provide 150% bonus to your damage while 100 Anat will provide a bonus of 20%.

On any warrior or weapon yielding mage tactics is a must. Anat is great if you have room for it in your temp and if you have healing it only makes sense bc of the ability to the res/cure and getting a damage bonus.

And don't forget, having a zero in tactics will give you a damage penalty to weapons. I don't remember the scale off hand but I think it was 50% damage at 0.

[Galtan Silversong]

It starts at 50% damage penalty at ZERO Tactics.

And from that on, it is pretty straight forward. Each 1.0 of tactics, will give you 1% more Damage:

So,

ZERO = 50% Dam. (50% penalty)
50.0 Tactics = 100% Dam. (Normal Damage)
100.0 Tactics = 150% Dam. (50% Bonus)
