Title: Combo
Post by: Werewolf on December 04, 2007, 12:01:01 am
This command seems to be affecting nothing. Nothing changes, either combo is on or off. (combo - modifier to leg sweep and overhead)

Are you sure your targets are not flying? In this case you just wouldn't notice the leg sweep attempts.
Or you mean you notice leg sweep attempts in all cases?

I mean I can sweep legs and do overhead separately but nothing that could be called 'combo' ever happens.

This is an attempt to sweep legs right after you make overhead (occurs when you do overheads). Used to be very annoying because it could lag you for 2.5 rounds instead of 1. If you cannot see anything like that when 'combo' is on and your opponent is not flying and probably not mounted (by the way its chance is not that huge, you need many attempts to be sure), you are right and this is a bug.

My apologies. Sure you wouldn't make statement before verifying. And I do, shame on me...
One more question is skill of leg sweep. As I recall, combo started working only when leg sweep was close to perfect.

Um, maybe you are right. I had 90% legsweep and 100% overhead when I tested. I'll update when I find out what happens after full mastery :)

But as I get from your post there is no difference in lag and/or damage between combo and just using overhead and legsweep consecutively?

Yes, it seemed to be the same. However I did not check this after a change implementing 'combo' command.

As far as I remember combo starts working when your overhead and leg sweep skills hit a total of 196%.

- so basically if I understand correctly?  you must train these two skils to near mastery and combo benefit is basically just saving you from inputing two seperate commands?

Even if so (I am not sure) this is an advantage. Think a bit and you will understand.
