Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
I'm only around lvl 40 on war, but I feels like Mighty Strikes doesn't work on Weaponskill on Eden, Am I wrong? Are there any test server player can access to test those kind of stuff?
Not sure if I'm posting in the correct forum, so sorry if it's not the propper place to post this

Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
Go out to a zone and use Iron Break, then use SA Iron Break as war/thf, then use Mighty Strikes + Iron Break. Check the TP return to make sure you don't Double Attack on a lv 1 mob. SA + Iron Break and Mighty Strikes + Iron Break should do the same, and Iron Break by itself should do less. If Mighty Strikes + Iron Break does the same as SA, then it works, if it does the same as regular then it doesn't work.

It is still not working, but it should be being worked on as a bug about it has been reported
Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
Mighty strikes is not supposed to work on weapon skills.

Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
It absolutely does work with weapon skills on retail, and it always has. A quick wiki search confirms this as well.
"Also affects physical weapon skills used while ability is active."

Yep, as a career warrior on fenrir, mighty strikes + top ws was a go to for a big spike of damage.Aneyus wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2019 12:18 amIt absolutely does work with weapon skills on retail, and it always has. A quick wiki search confirms this as well.

Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
Mighty Strikes testing will not work on level 1 mobs. Critical strikes increase your pdif and your pdif is already capped if fighting something with far less defense than your attack.Veikuri wrote: ↑Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:54 pmGo out to a zone and use Iron Break, then use SA Iron Break as war/thf, then use Mighty Strikes + Iron Break.

I take back my last statement, I didn't know Mighty Strikes was supposed to work with weapon skills. Being on DSP for far too long has started to warp my views.
I did just a quick test on a test server as a level 24 against EP dhalmels so that I knew my pdif wasn't going to cap out and...

So something's not right. This is on my owns server so Eden may have something different coded but I seriously doubt it. There's a check case in the script for weapon skills in weaponskills.lua and it seems to be increasing the pdif if the player has Mighty Strikes active but... it's not really? Something's bugged.
Edit: the check for Mighty Strikes is on the same line for Sneak Attack and we know SA works so... I checked if maybe the check for the player having Mighty Strikes was just broken somehow so I wrote a quick debug message if it's working and...

So idk.
Edit 2: Found the issue. In weaponskills.lua:
Code: Select all
if (params.canCrit or isSneakValid or isAssassinValid) then
Code: Select all
if (params.canCrit or isSneakValid or isAssassinValid or hasMightyStrikes) then
Edit 3: Woohoo~

Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
Wow, good work! Thanks for the effort!
Re: Mighty Strikes and WeaponSkill
Mighty strikes only crits on weapons skills that say "chance to crit varies with tp" It was like that in retail.
