Does Eval + Anatomy give a dodge bonus?

Morgawr · 26th March 2007, 12:03 PM

Im curious too does this work, how ?

I thought it was supposed to if it were 200 skill between the two.

I.E. 120 Eval 80 Anat

I'm not sure though.

I did a quick check on uo.com, but that site is so bloody out of date

I did a quick search on stratics and found this

Do I need any melee defense?

It basically comes down to what your character does. In PvP it's mandatory - if you don't have it, any warrior out there will be capable of killing you. If it's asked for PvM, it depends mostly on the rest of your template; it's by and far not an actual requirement, but if you find yourself being too close to monsters for a large portion of the time (whether it's because you refuse to move, or because you can't due to a slow connection), you might want to consider picking up one or the other melee defense sort.

What is the anatomy/evaluate formula?

(Anatomy + Evaluate Intelligence + 20) / 2 = defensive wrestling (capped at 120.0).

Does the anatomy/evaluate formula equal wrestling?

Defensively, yes, they are the same, but unlike wrestling, the anatomy/evaluate formula does not give you any offensive prowess at all.

Does the anatomy/evaluate formula stack with wrestle/weapon skill?

Goodness, no. Just imagine the prospect of a player having the equivalent of 240 skill points in any skill?

Which is better: wrestling or parrying?

Two totally different concepts, that take quite a bit to explain. Short answer is that, if you have higher than grandmaster evaluate, parrying can be considered about the same as wrestling in terms of not taking damage. More on this later.

Why would anyone pick Anatomy over Wrestling?

I can see the 20 skill points being saved, but dis-arm is worth it.

So Eval+Anat functions as wrestling... so heres the next question -

Can you benifit from the eval+anat boost with a weapon in hand if you dont have the weapon skill?

Specifically...

If i am holding a staff of the magi (mageweapon) with 0 macefighting and have 100 anat and 100 eval, do i benifit from the wrestle-like defense boost or does the weapon throw it out the window? (obviously the character has magery)

I think that covers everything.

But worth a shot at trying.

does magery count as a weapon skill then in that situation?

**Vepl** · 26th March 2007, 02:21 PM

With a mage weapon it counts towards it. Just can't do any special moves with out the real skill
