Im so out of touch these days that im doubting my self that i know evrn the basics on this game.
Do the armour work without defence?
I think it used to be tha armour effectivnes was based on the defence you had. Ia it still the same thrse days. Or do they work even if u have no def at all?
Armor is sort of useless if you don't have defense, it does offer you some but not worth buying it. Beef up on the defense and that will help. Each gear has different stats so make sure you check out which ones will suit you the best.
I think this. Because defense now is very useful unik. Compared to what it was in 2007-2009 even 2010. People train it well. And armor is useful too with it. go to announcement thread and read up some changes there that's how I got up to speed. if you need training advice on def there are awesome methods on guides thread try Hanks guide.
i assume this because you're an old player and back in the day no one trained defense or dex (well maybe little dex) it was mostly whore speed and strength. sorry to get off topic here if you need help let me know I went through the same thing like 1 month ago. Just gotta get up to speed
Strength and Weapons - Some core concepts are changing. You'll need to have good strength to make the most out of powerful weapons, and armour is only useful if you have defense. Strength depends on your weapon, and your weapon depends on your strength. The same goes for armour and defense.
From rom the man himself under the announcement second page attacking REPOST look for this thread read there
It is quite clear from attacking 2.0 announcement and his later posts in attacking forums and the announcement about defense changes that the only effect of defense is to lower damage independently of armour. Moreover he has talked about armors giving a STATIC damage reduction, which means their function is independent of everything else (as opposed to weapons multiplying damage)
And he has NOT spoken about armour and defense affecting each other EXCEPT in that announcement, which is pretty old, which post will you trust, older or newer?
Do you have links to this? I find it extremely hard to believe that Armor is a static deduction... otherwise a new player could just borrow a flexible armor from a friend and be invincible during noobie protection.
