Numerical Test Thread : Peddro's "Venom mechanics and test"

Posted by pedroelm 01 March 2013 - 06:24 PM

Charged weapon damage is 110% (0.3667 * 3 =1.1) of uncharged weapon damage (measly 10% extra) + ammo_damage 4*0.3667 + 4 * (sum_weapon damage bonuses) ...

Basically alot of CPU power used to get almost same damage for charged shots as for uncharged shots ...

what is the point of all those wasted cpu cycles ? and charge time

We have been spoiled - all other chargeable weapons do significantly more damage in chaged mode ..

///////////////////////////////
Venom I 636 base damage no skills ap ammo I

//Uncharged damage 1 grenade
+5409 ms |Health Damage 63.599976 // AP ammo I *0.1 damage
+1 ms |Health Damage 636.000000


//Charged shot 3 grenades each doing 0.3667% damage

636 * 0.3667 * 0.1 = 23.32212 // ap ammo damage (base d)
1 = sum of weapon damage bonuses (1 for naked char)
636 * 0.3667 = 233.2212 // grenade damage

Example II

Venom II base damage

Calculated according to cyonan table
(((795 - 636) / 9) * (2 - 1)) + 636 =653.666666


Venom II uncharged shots
+40823 ms |Health Damage 898.791687
+2404 ms |Health Damage 898.791687
+2157 ms |Health Damage 898.791687
+5959 ms |Health Damage 898.791687

653.66700 * (1 + 0.275 - 0.15 + 0.25) = 898.792125

charged //Charged shot 3 grenades each doing 0.3667% damage
+10607 ms |Health Damage 1.375000
+1 ms |Health Damage 1.375000
+3 ms |Health Damage 329.586914
+1 ms |Health Damage 1.375000
+1 ms |Health Damage 329.586914
+0 ms |Health Damage 1.375000
+1 ms |Health Damage 329.586914


1 + 0.275 - 0.15 + 0.25 = 1.375 //sum of weapon damage bonuses .. Why apply it as damage ? 4 times ?!
653.667 * 0.3667 * (1 + 0.275 - 0.15 + 0.25) = 329.587072238


EDIT AFTER BUFF TEST (charge modifier from 110% to 125%)

(sum of weapon damage mods =1 Venom I)

charged shot

snap shot
7892ms | a. trooper damage: 636.000000


1.25 / 3 = 0.4167
636 * 0.4167 = 265.0212
