These values are actually modified for '''every''' race in GemStone IV, including [[human]]s.''<br /> <br /> ==Training Recommendations==<br /> <br /> *TWC. One rank or 0.5x for defensive boost. The per rank benefit is trivial but there are significant DS boosts at these training amounts. Start out at 0.5x and drop back to 1 rank at high level if short of training points.<br /> *Armor Use. Physical armor is required at cap, but otherwise this should not be trained.<br /> *Combat Maneuvers. 1-2x. Start at 2x. Slack off whenever there isn't a pressing need for CM points.<br /> *Brawling. 2x <br /> *Ambush. Sufficient for reliable aiming. Train 5 ranks when you want to start aiming around level 20, and add one each time you miss an opening on the short of aimed attack you want to be reliable in. The actual number of ranks needed will vary a lot depending on hunting style and race height.<br /> *MOC. 0.5x for Force on Force defense. 0.5x is what is required for FoF offset for the typical bandit ambush size. <br /> *PF. 2x for general robustness, Sunfisters may well want 3x. 1x probably works fine too, but its so cheap that there's little to be saved by it.<br /> *Dodge. 3x. High DS is one of the monk's key attributes. You can get away with 2x a lot of the time, but it takes a lot of dodge to keep dodging while disabled as well as while status free, and 3x is how you get it.<br /> <br /> *AS and MIU. Pick them up when you have spare points. Outside spells are critical for TD reasons and this is one way you access them. Get 25 in each as soon as you can, but you probably won't manage much before level 40.<br /> *Harness Power. 0.5x Less if you train less spells, more if you train more, and more at high level if you are trying to use 1219.<br /> *Mana Control. These are horribly expensive and even warriors train them more easily than monks. Don't train early. Maybe acquire enough to share effectively with a pure (10 ranks) at high level, and maybe a bit more to help manage mana fluctuations in the Rift if you hunt there. Stick to spirit unless you have a particular reason to choose a different one.<br /> *Spells. 0.33-0.5x is the design range. You will want 1220 as soon as reasonably possible and it will pay to train spells more heavily when in range of it. You will want 120 at high level (its pretty suicidal going in the Rift without the TD from it). When in range of a desired spell, reckon on training every level, and at other times slack off, rather than sticking rigidly to once every two or three levels.<br /> *Lores. These are not only horribly expensive but have fairly trivial boosts on spells. Modest training of transformation lore at low level may be worthwhile but the benefits degrade both with additional training and as you level. Unless there is some lore benefit you really have to have for RP reasons, 6 ranks transformation is about as far as its worth going. Plateskin (requires enhancives as well as 1x transformation lore) may appeal conceptually but the absence of any CvA and the ease of putting together a huge DS makes it fairly ineffectual mechanically.<br /> <br /> Playing a monk as your first character is not recommended. It is assumed that you already have an idea of how much you like in the way of tertiary skills and the same considerations apply for a monk too. The only particularly noteworthy thing is that Climbing and Swimming are dirt cheap (for the same reasons that tertiary magical skills are horribly expensive, monks are squares with physical prime stats but their core training costs are slanted towards mental training points)<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> On July 8th 2012, the long awaited Monk profession was released in Platinum along with the revised of the [[Order of Voln]].<br /> <br /> ==Resources==<br /> *[[A beginner's guide to playing a monk]] (work-in-progress)<br /> *[[Unarmed combat system]]<br /> *[[Monk and UCS release event (saved posts)]]<br /> *[[Meditation_(saved_posts)#Monk_Update|Monk meditation (saved posts)]]<br /> *[http://www.play.net/gs4/info/professions/monks.asp Monks], on Play.net<br /> *[https://web.archive.org/web/20100907014410/http://www.nilandia.com/simucon10.htm Nilandia's site on archive.org]<br /> =====Officials Folders=====<br /> *[http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Monks/view Main folder]<br /> **[http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Monks/Announcements/view Announcements]<br /> **[http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Monks/Developer's%20Corner%20-%20Monks/view Developer's Corner]<br /> **[http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Monks/So%20You%20Want%20to%20be%20a%20Monk%3F/view So You Want to be a Monk?]<br /> **[http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Monks/Monk%20General%20Discussion/view General Discussion]<br /> {{top}}<br /> {{Monk}}<br /> {{Professions}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Professions]]<br /> [[Category:Monk| ]]<br /> [[Category:Unarmed combat]]</div>

GOLDENOAK2 https://gswiki.play.net/index.php?title=Unarmed_combat_system&diff=67530 2015-08-28T11:48:40Z

<p>GOLDENOAK2: </p> <hr /> <div>The '''Unarmed Combat System''' encompasses a unique combat style which features four types of attacks: [[Jab]], [[Punch]], [[Kick]] and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]. This system replaces [[Voln fu]] (Kick, Punch and Throw), which is now obsolete, as the primary unarmed attack method used against [[Undead]] creatures. Unarmed combat attacks are not, however, limited to the undead. They can be used against all creatures and characters.<br /> <br /> Effectiveness with unarmed combat depends significantly upon a character's [[brawling]] skill. Although similar to [[Attack strength|AS]]/[[DS]] in its functionality, unarmed combat replaces [[melee]] and [[ranged]] weapons with the hands and feet, and AS/DS mechanics with [[Unarmed attack factor|Unarmed Attack Factor (UAF)]]/[[Unarmed defense factor|Unarmed Defense Factor (UDF)]] and [[Multiplier modifier|Multiplier Modifier (MM)]].<br /> <br /> &lt;small&gt;Note: Professions that can 2x train each level in brawling are [[Bards]], [[Monks]], [[Paladins]], [[Rangers]], [[Rogues]] and [[Warriors]].&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Combat Tiers==<br /> <br /> There are three attack tiers (DECENT, GOOD, EXCELLENT) available when using unarmed combat. Progressing from a lower to higher tier will depend on the preceding attack's tier, the target's current vulnerability to a particular follow-up attack and a bit of luck, plus other factors. Ordinarily, an initial attack will start at Tier I. Higher tiers have the potential for increased damage and more debilitating status effects including fatal [[critical]]s. Combat messaging will indicate the current tier and, at times, indicate an effective subsequent attack type.<br /> <br /> Tier levels have a duration of 2 minutes which are [[refreshable]] with each subsequent attack. It is not necessary to hit the target to refresh the current tier.<br /> <br /> [[Haste (506)]], used in conjunction with unarmed combat attacks, will reduce the chance to progress to a higher tier. The exact penalty is not currently known. <br /> <br /> ===Example===<br /> <br /> The initial strike is a Tier I: Jab (indicated by DECENT positioning) which leaves the target susceptible to a follow-up Punch attack. As shown in the messaging below the second attack (punch) progressed to a Tier II with GOOD positioning message. Tier III attacks will have EXCELLENT positioning in the combat messaging panel.<br /> <br /> &lt;div {{log}}&gt;<br /> You attempt to jab a kobold!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You have &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''decent positioning'''&lt;/font&gt; against a kobold.&lt;br&gt;<br /> UAF: 38 vs UDF: 24 = 1.583 * MM: 100 + d100: 39 = 197&lt;br&gt;<br /> ... and hit for 10 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Solid shot to the back.&lt;br&gt;<br /> Strike leaves foe &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''vulnerable to a followup punch attack!'''&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Roundtime: 3 sec.&lt;br&gt;<br /> R&gt;pun kob<br /> You attempt to punch a kobold!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You have &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''good positioning'''&lt;/font&gt; against a kobold.&lt;br&gt;<br /> UAF: 38 vs UDF: 24 = 1.583 * MM: 100 + d100: 64 = 222&lt;br&gt;<br /> ... and hit for 66 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Rotating backhand cleanly snaps tibia!&lt;br&gt;<br /> The kobold crumples to a heap on the ground and dies.<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> {{top}}<br /> <br /> ==Critical Injuries==<br /> <br /> UCS attacks have the potential to cause both [[hitpoint|health point loss]] and [[wound]]s (commonly referred to as [[critical]] injuries). In addition to injuring a specific body location, each critical has associated status effects (stuns, knockdowns, slow, silence etc.) which can further debilitate an opponent.<br /> <br /> Each unarmed attack type ([[KICK (verb)|kick]], [[PUNCH (verb)|punch]], [[GRAPPLE (verb)|grapple]] and [[JAB (verb)|jab]]) has an associated [[critical table]] ([[Kick critical table (UCS)]], [[Punch critical table (UCS)]], [[Grapple critical table (UCS)]] and [[Jab critical table (UCS)]] with descriptive messaging, hitpoint damage values, injury levels and other status effects. Each table is divided into nine primary body locations and further subdivided into twelve critical ranks ranging from 0 to 11.<br /> <br /> Unlike the AS/DS combat system which uses a relatively simple method for determining the possible critical rank outcomes, [[UCS]] is more complex and less understood. What is known is that both [[endroll]] and positioning are the major factors. In addition to these two factors, the critical rank outcome is also affected by the defender's [[armor]], critical [[padding|weighting/padding]], crit rank randomization (see randomization note below). <br /> <br /> ===Maximum Critical Rank===<br /> <br /> All UCS attacks are executed from 1 of 3 positions (Decent, Good, Excellent). Each position determines the critical rank range. Higher endrolls will increase the likelihood of a higher critical rank within each range but even extraordinarily high endrolls and/or critical weighting cannot push a critical beyond the maximum for that position.<br /> <br /> The ranges for each position are as follows: <br /> <br /> *Tier 1 (Decent positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 5<br /> *Tier 2 (Good positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 8<br /> *Tier 3 (Excellent positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 11<br /> <br /> E.g., an attack from good positioning (Combat Tier 2) can have a critical rank outcome of 0 to 8. Attacks from this position are capped at rank 8 with the most likely outcomes under normal combat conditions to be ranks 6, 7 or 8.<br /> <br /> &lt;small&gt;Note: UCS critical randomization is not the same as AS/DS randomization. With sufficiently high endrolls and/or critical weighting, the critical rank outcome will be very heavily weighted toward the maximum rank.&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Damage Factors==<br /> <br /> The table below includes the [[Damage factor|Damage Factors (DF)]] for the four [[unarmed combat]] attack types.<br /> <br /> For UCS attacks the damage factor is based on the torso armor's covered areas. A target wearing light leather (AsG 5) will have the UCS (jab/punch/grapple/kick) leather DF for torso (chest/back/abdomen) areas and the cloth DF for all other body locations. These DF's are not affected by armor accessories. This also applies to creatures whose skin acts as pseudo-armor. A UCS attack, against a target in partial armor coverage, will have one of two possible DFs depending on the body location's armor coverage.<br /> <br /> ===Example===<br /> <br /> Kick DFs vs [[Dark orc|dark orc]] in double chain (torso/arm coverage).<br /> <br /> :A kick to the chest/back/abdomen/arms/hands will have a 0.250 DF (chain)<br /> :A kick to the head/neck/eyes/legs will have a 0.300 DF (scale)<br /> <br /> <br /> {|{{prettytable}}<br /> |-style = &quot;background:#DDD; color: blue&quot;<br /> !Attack Type<br /> ![[Armor|AG]]<br /> !Cloth<br /> !Leather<br /> !Scale<br /> !Chain<br /> !Plate<br /> !Base [[Roundtime|RT]]<br /> !Min [[Roundtime|RT]]<br /> ![[Critical table|Damage Type]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Jab]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.100<br /> |.075<br /> |.060<br /> |.050<br /> |.035<br /> |2<br /> |2<br /> |[[Jab critical table (UCS)|Jab]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Punch]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.275<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |.170<br /> |.140<br /> |3<br /> |3<br /> |[[Punch critical table (UCS)|Punch]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |.160<br /> |.120<br /> |.100<br /> |3<br /> |3<br /> |[[Grapple critical table (UCS)|Grapple]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Kick]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.400<br /> |.350<br /> |.300<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |4<br /> |4<br /> |[[Kick critical table (UCS)|Kick]]<br /> |}<br /> <br /> {{top}}<br /> <br /> ==[[Roundtime]]s==<br /> <br /> UCS attacks have the same base and minimum [[RT]]'s. [[Encumbrance]] can increase these roundtimes. The encumbrance penalty is 1 sec. additional RT for each 5% encumbered body weight. The combined [[Roundtime|AGI/DEX]] bonuses will reduce the RT penalty as follows: Combined bonus 8 (-1 RT), 23 (-2 RT), 38 (-3 RT), 53 (-4 RT), 68 (-5 RT). You cannot reduce the RT to less than its minimum. <br /> <br /> {|{{prettytable}}<br /> |-style = &quot;background:#DDD; color: blue&quot;<br /> !Attack Type<br /> !RoundTime<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Jab]]'''<br /> |2 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Punch]]'''<br /> |3 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]'''<br /> |3 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Kick]]'''<br /> |4 Seconds<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Weapons Compatible with Unarmed Combat==<br /> <br /> The following brawling weapons are suitable for use with the [[unarmed combat system]] (UCS). They DO NOT funtion as ordinary melee weapons when used with [[jab]], [[punch]], and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|grapple]] attacks. Their [[damage factor]]s, [[AvD]]s and damage types ([[slash]], [[puncture]], [[crush]]) do not apply. They primarily serve as an equipment platform for [[enchant]] bonus, [[flare]]s and [[weighting]] etc. However, their use does add a bonus to the attack's [[damage factor]] and a penalty to the [[multiplier modifier]].<br /> <br /> *[[Cestus]]<br /> *[[Knuckle-blade]]<br /> *[[Knuckle-duster]]<br /> *[[Paingrip]]<br /> *[[Razorpaw]]<br /> *[[Tiger-claw]]<br /> *[[Yierka-spur]]<br /> <br /> ===Brawling Weapon DF Bonuses and MM Penalties===<br /> <br /> Each of the approved-for-use brawling weapons that function with [[JAB (verb)|Jab]], [[PUNCH (verb)|Punch]] and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]] attacks have innate [[Damage factor|Damage Factor (DF)]] bonuses and [[Multiplier modifier|Multiplier Modifier (MM)]] penalties. These special properties only activate with the Jab, Punch and Grapple commands. Kick attacks are unaffected by these held weapons.<br /> <br /> ''&lt;small&gt;Note: When used in unarmed combat it is more appropriate to think of these weapons as equipment that attach to the actual weapons - the adventurer's hands.&lt;/small&gt;''<br /> <br /> A character is not limited to single weapon use. They can be dual-wielded in any combination. For example, two razorpaws or a razorpaw and a tiger-claw can be held simultaneously. When dual-wielding, the DF and MM values of each are simply added together.

This is not possible for UCS practioners because the hands and feet are the actual weapons. The primary function of UCS hand/foot coverings is to serve as a platform for adding these special effects.<br /> <br /> Enchant bonuses added to UCS hand equipment add [[parry]] [[DS]] equal to that of one-handed weapons. Enchant bonuses added to UCS foot equipment do not add to DS at all.<br /> <br /> ===Hand/Foot Equipment Penalties===<br /> <br /> There are no penalties associated with UCS compatible WORN items. UCS [[Multiplier modifier|Multiplier Modifier (MM)]] penalties only apply to HELD items. Any held item, including UCS compatible brawling weapons, will reduce MM values. The actual reduction depends on the particular item. Although there is no penalty for worn items, there are times when a special effect will not activate. For example, e-bladed gloves will not activate when attacking [[undead]] creatures; the enchantment bonus on gloves will not activate against undead unless the gloves are blessed.<br /> <br /> ==Armor Penalties==<br /> <br /> Wearing heavy [[armor]] penalizes UCS attacks.

GOLDENOAK2 https://gswiki.play.net/index.php?title=Unarmed_combat_system&diff=67529 2015-08-28T11:48:18Z

<p>GOLDENOAK2: </p> <hr /> <div>{{HSN}}<br /> The '''Unarmed Combat System''' encompasses a unique combat style which features four types of attacks: [[Jab]], [[Punch]], [[Kick]] and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]. This system replaces [[Voln fu]] (Kick, Punch and Throw), which is now obsolete, as the primary unarmed attack method used against [[Undead]] creatures. Unarmed combat attacks are not, however, limited to the undead. They can be used against all creatures and characters.<br /> <br /> Effectiveness with unarmed combat depends significantly upon a character's [[brawling]] skill. Although similar to [[Attack strength|AS]]/[[DS]] in its functionality, unarmed combat replaces [[melee]] and [[ranged]] weapons with the hands and feet, and AS/DS mechanics with [[Unarmed attack factor|Unarmed Attack Factor (UAF)]]/[[Unarmed defense factor|Unarmed Defense Factor (UDF)]] and [[Multiplier modifier|Multiplier Modifier (MM)]].<br /> <br /> &lt;small&gt;Note: Professions that can 2x train each level in brawling are [[Bards]], [[Monks]], [[Paladins]], [[Rangers]], [[Rogues]] and [[Warriors]].&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Combat Tiers==<br /> <br /> There are three attack tiers (DECENT, GOOD, EXCELLENT) available when using unarmed combat. Progressing from a lower to higher tier will depend on the preceding attack's tier, the target's current vulnerability to a particular follow-up attack and a bit of luck, plus other factors. Ordinarily, an initial attack will start at Tier I. Higher tiers have the potential for increased damage and more debilitating status effects including fatal [[critical]]s. Combat messaging will indicate the current tier and, at times, indicate an effective subsequent attack type.<br /> <br /> Tier levels have a duration of 2 minutes which are [[refreshable]] with each subsequent attack. It is not necessary to hit the target to refresh the current tier.<br /> <br /> [[Haste (506)]], used in conjunction with unarmed combat attacks, will reduce the chance to progress to a higher tier. The exact penalty is not currently known. <br /> <br /> ===Example===<br /> <br /> The initial strike is a Tier I: Jab (indicated by DECENT positioning) which leaves the target susceptible to a follow-up Punch attack. As shown in the messaging below the second attack (punch) progressed to a Tier II with GOOD positioning message. Tier III attacks will have EXCELLENT positioning in the combat messaging panel.<br /> <br /> &lt;div {{log}}&gt;<br /> You attempt to jab a kobold!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You have &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''decent positioning'''&lt;/font&gt; against a kobold.&lt;br&gt;<br /> UAF: 38 vs UDF: 24 = 1.583 * MM: 100 + d100: 39 = 197&lt;br&gt;<br /> ... and hit for 10 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Solid shot to the back.&lt;br&gt;<br /> Strike leaves foe &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''vulnerable to a followup punch attack!'''&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Roundtime: 3 sec.&lt;br&gt;<br /> R&gt;pun kob<br /> You attempt to punch a kobold!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You have &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;'''good positioning'''&lt;/font&gt; against a kobold.&lt;br&gt;<br /> UAF: 38 vs UDF: 24 = 1.583 * MM: 100 + d100: 64 = 222&lt;br&gt;<br /> ... and hit for 66 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Rotating backhand cleanly snaps tibia!&lt;br&gt;<br /> The kobold crumples to a heap on the ground and dies.<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> {{top}}<br /> <br /> ==Critical Injuries==<br /> <br /> UCS attacks have the potential to cause both [[hitpoint|health point loss]] and [[wound]]s (commonly referred to as [[critical]] injuries). In addition to injuring a specific body location, each critical has associated status effects (stuns, knockdowns, slow, silence etc.) which can further debilitate an opponent.<br /> <br /> Each unarmed attack type ([[KICK (verb)|kick]], [[PUNCH (verb)|punch]], [[GRAPPLE (verb)|grapple]] and [[JAB (verb)|jab]]) has an associated [[critical table]] ([[Kick critical table (UCS)]], [[Punch critical table (UCS)]], [[Grapple critical table (UCS)]] and [[Jab critical table (UCS)]] with descriptive messaging, hitpoint damage values, injury levels and other status effects. Each table is divided into nine primary body locations and further subdivided into twelve critical ranks ranging from 0 to 11.<br /> <br /> Unlike the AS/DS combat system which uses a relatively simple method for determining the possible critical rank outcomes, [[UCS]] is more complex and less understood. What is known is that both [[endroll]] and positioning are the major factors. In addition to these two factors, the critical rank outcome is also affected by the defender's [[armor]], critical [[padding|weighting/padding]], crit rank randomization (see randomization note below). <br /> <br /> ===Maximum Critical Rank===<br /> <br /> All UCS attacks are executed from 1 of 3 positions (Decent, Good, Excellent). Each position determines the critical rank range. Higher endrolls will increase the likelihood of a higher critical rank within each range but even extraordinarily high endrolls and/or critical weighting cannot push a critical beyond the maximum for that position.<br /> <br /> The ranges for each position are as follows: <br /> <br /> *Tier 1 (Decent positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 5<br /> *Tier 2 (Good positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 8<br /> *Tier 3 (Excellent positioning): Rank 0 to Rank 11<br /> <br /> E.g., an attack from good positioning (Combat Tier 2) can have a critical rank outcome of 0 to 8. Attacks from this position are capped at rank 8 with the most likely outcomes under normal combat conditions to be ranks 6, 7 or 8.<br /> <br /> &lt;small&gt;Note: UCS critical randomization is not the same as AS/DS randomization. With sufficiently high endrolls and/or critical weighting, the critical rank outcome will be very heavily weighted toward the maximum rank.&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Damage Factors==<br /> <br /> The table below includes the [[Damage factor|Damage Factors (DF)]] for the four [[unarmed combat]] attack types.<br /> <br /> For UCS attacks the damage factor is based on the torso armor's covered areas. A target wearing light leather (AsG 5) will have the UCS (jab/punch/grapple/kick) leather DF for torso (chest/back/abdomen) areas and the cloth DF for all other body locations. These DF's are not affected by armor accessories. This also applies to creatures whose skin acts as pseudo-armor. A UCS attack, against a target in partial armor coverage, will have one of two possible DFs depending on the body location's armor coverage.<br /> <br /> ===Example===<br /> <br /> Kick DFs vs [[Dark orc|dark orc]] in double chain (torso/arm coverage).<br /> <br /> :A kick to the chest/back/abdomen/arms/hands will have a 0.250 DF (chain)<br /> :A kick to the head/neck/eyes/legs will have a 0.300 DF (scale)<br /> <br /> <br /> {|{{prettytable}}<br /> |-style = &quot;background:#DDD; color: blue&quot;<br /> !Attack Type<br /> ![[Armor|AG]]<br /> !Cloth<br /> !Leather<br /> !Scale<br /> !Chain<br /> !Plate<br /> !Base [[Roundtime|RT]]<br /> !Min [[Roundtime|RT]]<br /> ![[Critical table|Damage Type]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Jab]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.100<br /> |.075<br /> |.060<br /> |.050<br /> |.035<br /> |2<br /> |2<br /> |[[Jab critical table (UCS)|Jab]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Punch]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.275<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |.170<br /> |.140<br /> |3<br /> |3<br /> |[[Punch critical table (UCS)|Punch]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |.160<br /> |.120<br /> |.100<br /> |3<br /> |3<br /> |[[Grapple critical table (UCS)|Grapple]]<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Kick]]'''<br /> |'''[[DF]]'''<br /> |.400<br /> |.350<br /> |.300<br /> |.250<br /> |.200<br /> |4<br /> |4<br /> |[[Kick critical table (UCS)|Kick]]<br /> |}<br /> <br /> {{top}}<br /> <br /> ==[[Roundtime]]s==<br /> <br /> UCS attacks have the same base and minimum [[RT]]'s. [[Encumbrance]] can increase these roundtimes. The encumbrance penalty is 1 sec. additional RT for each 5% encumbered body weight. The combined [[Roundtime|AGI/DEX]] bonuses will reduce the RT penalty as follows: Combined bonus 8 (-1 RT), 23 (-2 RT), 38 (-3 RT), 53 (-4 RT), 68 (-5 RT). You cannot reduce the RT to less than its minimum. <br /> <br /> {|{{prettytable}}<br /> |-style = &quot;background:#DDD; color: blue&quot;<br /> !Attack Type<br /> !RoundTime<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Jab]]'''<br /> |2 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Punch]]'''<br /> |3 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]]'''<br /> |3 seconds<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Kick]]'''<br /> |4 Seconds<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Weapons Compatible with Unarmed Combat==<br /> <br /> The following brawling weapons are suitable for use with the [[unarmed combat system]] (UCS). They DO NOT funtion as ordinary melee weapons when used with [[jab]], [[punch]], and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|grapple]] attacks. Their [[damage factor]]s, [[AvD]]s and damage types ([[slash]], [[puncture]], [[crush]]) do not apply. They primarily serve as an equipment platform for [[enchant]] bonus, [[flare]]s and [[weighting]] etc. However, their use does add a bonus to the attack's [[damage factor]] and a penalty to the [[multiplier modifier]].<br /> <br /> *[[Cestus]]<br /> *[[Knuckle-blade]]<br /> *[[Knuckle-duster]]<br /> *[[Paingrip]]<br /> *[[Razorpaw]]<br /> *[[Tiger-claw]]<br /> *[[Yierka-spur]]<br /> <br /> ===Brawling Weapon DF Bonuses and MM Penalties===<br /> <br /> Each of the approved-for-use brawling weapons that function with [[JAB (verb)|Jab]], [[PUNCH (verb)|Punch]] and [[GRAPPLE (verb)|Grapple]] attacks have innate [[Damage factor|Damage Factor (DF)]] bonuses and [[Multiplier modifier|Multiplier Modifier (MM)]] penalties. These special properties only activate with the Jab, Punch and Grapple commands. Kick attacks are unaffected by these held weapons.<br /> <br /> ''&lt;small&gt;Note: When used in unarmed combat it is more appropriate to think of these weapons as equipment that attach to the actual weapons - the adventurer's hands.&lt;/small&gt;''<br /> <br /> A character is not limited to single weapon use. They can be dual-wielded in any combination. For example, two razorpaws or a razorpaw and a tiger-claw can be held simultaneously. When dual-wielding, the DF and MM values of each are simply added together. The DF bonus calculation is (Weapon1 DF + Weapon2 DF) and the MM penalty is (Weapon1 MM penalty + Weapon2 MM penalty.<br /> <br /> Example: A character holding both a razorpaw and tiger-claw will have a DF bonus of .100 (.025 + .075) and an MM penalty of -20. This is the same bonus/penalty as two knuckle-blades. The DF bonuses are added to the normal jab, punch and grapple DFs shown in the Damage Factor section of this article.<br /> <br /> {|{{prettytable}}<br /> |-style = &quot;background:#DDD; color: blue&quot;<br /> !Weapon<br /> !DF Bonus (Single)<br /> !DF Bonus (Dual)<br /> !MM Penalty (Single)<br /> !MM Penalty (Dual)<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Cestus]]'''<br /> |.025<br /> |.050<br /> | -5<br /> | -10<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Paingrip]]'''<br /> |.025<br /> |.050<br /> | -5<br /> | -10<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Razorpaw]]'''<br /> |.025<br /> |.050<br /> | -5<br /> | -10<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Knuckle-blade]]'''<br /> |.050<br /> |.100<br /> | -10<br /> | -20<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Knuckle-duster]]'''<br /> |.050<br /> |.100<br /> | -10<br /> | -20<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Yierka-spur]]'''<br /> |.075<br /> |.150<br /> | -15<br /> | -30<br /> |-align=center<br /> |'''[[Tiger-claw]]'''<br /> |.075<br /> |.150<br /> | -15<br /> | -30<br /> |}<br /> {{top}}<br /> <br /> ==Equipment (UCS Gloves and Boots etc)==<br /> <br /> While there is no requirement to wear any equipment, unarmed combat effectiveness can be improved by taking advantage of specially created hand (gloves, handwraps, gauntlets etc.) and foot coverings (boots, footwraps etc.).

If the attacker has good (&quot;tier two&quot;) positioning against a target, use the attack type that was specified at the start.<br /> 4.) If the attacker has excellent (&quot;tier three&quot;) positioning against a target, use the attack type that was specified at the start, unless the specified attack type was JAB, in which case choose a random attack from PUNCH, GRAPPLE, and KICK instead.<br /> <br /> Related to this release, the ASSESS verb has been updated to list your unarmed position against all foes in the area, via ASSESS UNARMED.</div>

If the target is [[stunned]], or if the target is [[non-corporeal]] [[undead]], a third damage cycle will take place. <br /> <br /> Using the [[CHANNEL (verb)|CHANNEL]] command has the potential to increase the damage, with more offensive stances increasing the potential damage. Channeling will '''always''' use the warding version of the spell.<br /> <br /> With 20 ranks of [[Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy]], '''Disintegrate''' can also be cast as disintegrating bolt. To use as a bolt spell, the caster must be a stance greater than guarded and use [[Cast]] verb or [[Incant]] (without channelincant flag set)<br /> <br /> Both aspects of the spell, have the ability to temporarily weaken weapons, shields, and armor for 60 seconds when the target is struck. The percent chance is based upon a seed 6 summation of the caster's Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy ranks. Affected weapons have 25% less damage factor, shields reduce the target's block chance by 5% and cause them to suffer -20 to offense with shield maneuvers, and armor is reduced by 1 Armor Group. The effect stacks and the duration renews each time the lore benefit triggers. <br /> <br /> Additionally, casting this spell upon an item will cause it to be destroyed.<br /> <br /> __NOTOC__<br /> ==Damage Factor Table==<br /> <br /> The [[damage factor]]s and [[AvD]]s contained in this table are used in damage calculations with the [[bolt spell]] version only.<br /> <br /> {{Boltspell table start}}<br /> {{Boltspell table entry|spell = Disintegrate|DFcloth = .525|DFleather = .383|DFscale = .314|DFchain = .350|DFplate = .197<br /> |AvD1=40<br /> |AvD5=38|AvD6=37|AvD7=36|AvD8=35<br /> |AvD9=35|AvD10=33|AvD11=31|AvD12=29<br /> |AvD13=37|AvD14=33|AvD15=29|AvD16=25<br /> |AvD17=32|AvD18=26|AvD19=20|AvD20=14}}<br /> {{Boltspell table end}}<br /> <br /> {{AR}}<br /> {{:smooth bone wand}}<br /> <br /> ==Messaging==<br /> ;Shield effect<br /> &lt;pre{{log2|margin-right=325px}}&gt;<br /> You gesture at a spectral triton defender.<br /> CS: +555 - TD: +364 + CvA: +20 + d100: +77 == +288<br /> Warding failed!<br /> A dull grey beam snakes out toward the triton defender!<br /> ... 111 points of damage!<br /> ... 25 points of damage!<br /> A fine blow splits the back of the hand.<br /> Tendrils of vapor intertwine as the wound seals before your eyes.<br /> ... 26 points of damage!<br /> Various bits of the triton defender melt away!<br /> '''The dull grey beam arcs toward the triton defender's large driftwood shield and engulfs it, causing cracks to appear along the surface!'''<br /> Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> == Resources ==<br /> *[[Disintegrate (705) (saved posts)]]<br /> *[http://www.play.net/gs4/info/spells/spelllist.asp?circle=6#705 Sorcerer Base Spell Circle: Disintegrate], on Play.net</div>

Sorrow-ridden eyes, one slitted, the other round, gaze into the distance as an uneven tempo of labored wheezing fills the fetid air.<br /> <br /> &lt;small&gt;&lt;i&gt;There are two types of rotting chimera. The above description is for the chimeras that have scorpion tails. For the webbing chimeras, the &quot;A huge scorpion tail rises high from the rear of the chimera, ready to strike.&quot; line is replaced with:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> The swollen abdomen of a mammoth arachnid has been grafted to the hind-quarters of the the chimera. <br /> <br /> ==Hunting strategies==<br /> {{addmetext}}<br /> ==Other information==<br /> The chimeras are ashamed of their appearance. They will occasionally hide their head in shame, or swipe at their reflection if they catch it in a reflection.<br /> <br /> The rotting chimera can disease an opponent upon a successful attack; it can also inflict a paralyzing lassitude.<br /> <br /> The rotting chimera has one of two [[creature maneuver]] attacks: webbing and stinging.<br /> <br /> Only the rotting chimeras with scorpion tails are skinnable. The skinner may be poisoned by the scorpion's stinger. [[Survival]] training and the [[Skinning (604)|Skinning spell]] will provide protection against it. If pricked, the skinner is subjected to a hidden poison check, which incorporates things like [[First Aid]], CON, [[Physical Fitness|Physical Training]], the [[Poison Resist (105)]] spell, etc. Getting pricked or not has no bearing on chance to skin or the quality of the skin. <br /> <br /> Examples of the chimera's stinging attack:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> The scorpion tail curled high above a rotting chimera suddenly strikes at you with lightning speed!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You are unable to get out of the way as the chimera's stinger pierces into you!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;... 10 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Nice puncture to the abdomen, just missed vital organs!<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> The scorpion tail curled high above a rotting chimera suddenly strikes at you with lightning speed!&lt;br&gt;<br /> You are unable to get out of the way as the chimera's stinger pierces into you!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;... 20 points of damage!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Nailed in lower back!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;You are stunned for 3 rounds!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Messaging==<br /> A rotting chimera scratches at its side, causing a combination of rotting scales and fur to drift to the ground.<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera cries in pain as it trembles violently before dropping its head and vomiting a large puddle of blood.<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera shrieks as it notices its reflection in a puddle of water and violently swipes at the image gazing back!<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera gazes at you with a pained and hurtful expression.<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera gazes forward with a pathetic look of absolute anguish.<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera gazes reflectively at the ground, then suddenly asks in a garbled, malformed voice, &quot;Father?&quot; The chimera glances about hopefully, then shakes its head in defeat.<br /> <br /> A rotting chimera hunches over and begins to sob loudly while clawing at its head.<br /> <br /> Unexpectedly, the humanoid arm protruding from the back of the rotting chimera suddenly begins pounding on the head of the chimera! The beast emits a long, tortured wail before the arm ceases.<br /> <br /> (DEAD)A rotting chimera kneels down next to you and nuzzles your cheek, whimpering pathetically.<br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> *[[River's Rest hunting expansion (saved post)]]<br /> *[[Poison and skinning (saved post)]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> *[http://www.play.net/gs4/info/bestiary/creature.asp?creature=1690 Rotting chimera on Play.net bestiary]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{Nearlevel<br /> |levelm2 = 44<br /> |levelm1 = 45<br /> |level = 46<br /> |levelp1 = 47<br /> |levelp2 = 48<br /> }}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Marsh Keep Creatures]]</div>

Her rotting teeth, decaying flesh, and tattered robes leave little evidence left of her original appearance. Fading in and out of view, at times you can even see straight through her to the other side!<br /> <br /> Appraisal: The banshee is medium in size and about five feet high in her current state.<br /> <br /> ==Hunting strategies==<br /> {{addmetext}}<br /> ==Other information==<br /> ===TD boost===<br /> When a banshee is subjected to a warding or bolt spell attack, there is a chance that it will be surrounded by a bright glow, with a color corresponding to each [[spell circle]] (e.g. red for Minor Elemental, green for Sorcerer). For a duration of approximately 30 seconds, the banshee receives a +100 boost to its [[target defense]] (TD) and [[defensive strength]] (DS) against magic. <br /> Example:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> You gesture at a banshee.&lt;br&gt;<br /> The banshee's eyes grow wide as she watches your gestures! Suddenly she makes hurried movements as she recognizes that she is about to be attacked by magic!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> The banshee raises her hand to protect herself and a bright green glow surrounds her!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;CS: +251 - TD: +290 + CvA: +25 + d100: +98 == +84&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Warded off!&lt;br&gt;<br /> A blood red haze eddies and swirls around a banshee before it dissipates.&lt;br&gt;<br /> Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> Wearing off:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> The glow fades from a banshee.<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> ===Wail===<br /> A banshee's wail attack has a chance to bind her target.

Her rotting teeth, decaying flesh, and tattered robes leave little evidence left of her original appearance. Fading in and out of view, at times you can even see straight through her to the other side!<br /> <br /> Appraisal: The banshee is medium in size and about five feet high in her current state.<br /> <br /> ==Hunting strategies==<br /> {{addmetext}}<br /> ==Other information==<br /> ===TD boost===<br /> When a banshee is subjected to a warding or bolt spell attack, there is a chance that it will be surrounded by a bright glow, with a color corresponding to each [[spell circle]] (e.g. red for Minor Elemental, green for Sorcerer). For a duration of approximately 30 seconds, the banshee receives a +100 boost to its [[target defense]] (TD) and [[defensive strength]] (DS) against magic. <br /> Example:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> You gesture at a banshee.&lt;br&gt;<br /> The banshee's eyes grow wide as she watches your gestures! Suddenly she makes hurried movements as she recognizes that she is about to be attacked by magic!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> The banshee raises her hand to protect herself and a bright green glow surrounds her!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;CS: +251 - TD: +290 + CvA: +25 + d100: +98 == +84&lt;br&gt;<br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Warded off!&lt;br&gt;<br /> A blood red haze eddies and swirls around a banshee before it dissipates.&lt;br&gt;<br /> Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> Wearing off:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> The glow fades from a banshee.<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> ===Wail===<br /> A banshee's wail attack has a chance to bind her target. There is no visible roll.<br /> <br /> Example of a successful wail:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> A banshee focuses her glare on you and looses a ghastly, keening wail!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Your heart leaps into your throat at the sound of the terrible wail!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &gt;prep 704&lt;br&gt;<br /> You don't seem to be able to move to do that.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> Wearing off:<br /> &lt;div {{log|margin-right=350px}}&gt;<br /> The feeling of utter terror recedes.<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Treasure===<br /> <br /> Banshees carry a variety of treasure but must be searched immediately upon death before they dissolve away.<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> *[http://www.play.net/gs4/info/bestiary/creature.asp?creature=1515 Banshee on Play.net bestiary]<br /> <br /> {{Nearlevel<br /> |levelm2 = 48<br /> |levelm1 = 49<br /> |level = 50<br /> |levelp1 = 51<br /> |levelp2 = 52<br /> }}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Darkstone Castle creatures]]<br /> [[Category:Fhorian Village creatures]]</div>
