Research:Lion paws

From Discworld MUD Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
Swiper and Naleon Tested Lionpaws vs leather strapped gloves,
Naleon was not holding weapon, wearing full KS, 
Swiper had 500 bonus in striking, wearing lion paws, then Leather strapped gloves.
With Lion paws it was doing 50hp more in damage compared to leather strapped gloves, clompy boots made no difference.
It really cemented Toffees well researched methods below:

Toffee d'Parranoid and Pokey Kindly tested lion paws, iron gauntlets, leather strapped gloved., here are the results.

I did a test of the main aids to unarmed combat with Pokey. The test was not very long and in depth but it did produce consistent results.
The logs of the tests are below. Here is a summary of the results for ease of reading:

The leather strap gloves on their own were the weakest, only doing an average of 200hp per hit. When wearing clompy boots and the leather strap gloves
their was no noticeable difference in damage. The pair of lion paws were much more damaging at about 250-300hp per hit. The iron gauntlets did not fair
well, as they did about the same damage as the leather strap gloves and less than the pair of lion paws. Old Bellicus' Brazen Knuckles did good damage 
perhaps roughly equal to the pair of lion paws although they did achieve more damage in one round (400hp per hit). 

My bonuses were:
Fi.un.striking: 486 (493 with iron gauntlets)
Fi.sp.tactics: 364
Ma.sp.offensive: 528 (for OBBK)

Pokey was skillcapped at 300 levels and was not wearing armour.
