Looking to sell this beast of a Katana. Here's my last attack log for Duke using GAK and Katana, I appreciate that it wasn't the full 25 moves with Katana, will post another shortly.

Have 5 merits in slashing weapons and 39% experience with Katana, while on xanax.

Current offer: -
Buyout: 5b


Berserk, +60% damage, -30% hit chance

Therefore, effective stats are:
  • Damage: 106.28
  • Accuracy: 64.86
Of course, this is before merits and 10% Japanese blade bonus.

Post 10% bonus leads to:
  • Damage: 112.90

A great melee weapon, should come down to about 128,19 damage with the bonus, merits, weapon exp, japanese blade education, 2% from property and 1% from further education. On top of that you can get an additional 10% - 20% from companies.

Although the reduced hit chance of 30% doesn't translate to "30% less accuracy". It translates to the hit chance where your speed vs their dex + your accuracy is calculated.

Wasn't this previously confirmed it its not multiplicative of base dmg...its a added % to the damage you would originally do?
Vivien_Yap [2433359]
since the damage value is itself an accurate multiplier of damage now you can just add the +% dmg to it and it'll work out

on the other hand, -30% hit chance means even if your speed was 1000x their dex your max hit chance is still 70% with the weapon, so hit chance and acc can't really be done the same way as damage and damage %
Kanzu [231334]
No, accuracy changes depending on ratio of speed to dex. See Proxima's guide on Speed vs Dex with accuracy. https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=61&t=16199413&b=0&a=0
Vivien_Yap [2433359]
so the -30% chance is applied to the base hit chance calculated from speed to dex ratio? thus getting 78.9% hit chance if your speed is 64x higher than their dex.
Ryukendo [2167036]
Beast of a weapon. But yeah as said by 1 punch man, accuracy isn't hit chance. So 45 acc may not be correct, Or is it?
One_Punch_Man [2216652]
Some believe it's this way: speed vs dex = 70% hit chance + accuracy = 80% hit chance - 30% hit chance = 50%
But I believe it's 30% from 80%, so -24%, which would mean 56% (slightly better).

Those numbers are just meant as an example.



edit: although at 100% hit chance, it would mean 30% less effectively, yeah
