Hi guys, I've been wondering how does the dex-based hit speed formula works inside the core for NPC's without any weapons.

Could you enlighten me, please?

Thanks in advance,

Aimed

The formula was changed recently in the last nightly build:
The old formula was like
SPEEDSCALEFACTOR / ( ( DEX + 100 ) * SPEED )

Where SPEEDSCALEFACTOR had a default value of 15000 (changeable in the sphere.ini) and SPEED was the weapon speed value (higher the number, faster the weapon). I don't remember the wrestling speed value :\

Could you, please, check the wrestling speed value?

It's 50

the old formula is pre-AOS and the new formula is SE, both are quite similar but the SE formula is more accurate and also support INCREASESWINGSPEED property


PS: it uses STAM and not DEX, and this will make the same char using the same weapon have different swing speed based on it's current stamina. So chars with high stamina will have default speed, and low stamina will result slow speeds

Code:

//Old pre-AOS formula (default SpeedScaleFactor = 15000)
LOCAL.BaseSpeed = <QVAL (<WEAPON>)? <WEAPON.SPEED> : 50>
LOCAL.SwingSpeed = <eval (<SERV.SpeedScaleFactor> * 10) / (<LOCAL.BaseSpeed> * (<STAM> + 100))>

//New SE formula (default SpeedScaleFactor = 80000)
LOCAL.BaseSpeed = <eval <QVAL (<WEAPON>)? <WEAPON.SPEED> : 50> * (<INCREASESWINGSPEED> + 100) / 100>
LOCAL.SwingSpeed = <eval (<SERV.SpeedScaleFactor> / ((<STAM> + 100) * <LOCAL.BaseSpeed>)) - 2>
IF (<LOCAL.SwingSpeed> < 5)
  LOCAL.SwingSpeed = 5
ENDIF
LOCAL.SwingSpeed = <eval (<LOCAL.SwingSpeed> * 10) / 4>

PS: it uses STAM and not DEX, and this will make the same char using the same weapon have different swing speed based on it's current stamina. So chars with high stamina will have default speed, and low stamina will result slow speeds

wait a second... it uses the current stamina and not the max stamina?

so

a char with 60/100 stam will hit faster than one with 20/100 stamina?

ex:
60 --> current stamina
100 --> cap stamina

It uses current STAM to calculate the speed
