UO Second Age

Hi. I see alot of mages have wrestling. Could someone please explain the benefits it gives?

Thanks

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.

Thanks! That was alot of help.
