Well, Harold, it goes something like this.

The calculation UO does to decide whether an opponent's weapon hits you, for a mage not holding a weapon (using wrestling) vs someone holding a weapon (say, fencing), is:

% Chance to Hit

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

(see http://wiki.uosecondage.com/index.php?t ... apon_Skill for more)

So, 100 wrestling vs 100 fencing would mean that they hit 50% of the time, thereby reducing damage and chance that they interupt your spell.

Kthxbai.
