Game Mechanics

Npcs come with a variety of important statistics for players when examined. Not all statistics are readily available as certain attributes can only be viewed if a player has sufficient Creature Knowledge skill modifiers from the scout and ranger profession trees. Other statistics such as the target's HAM are viewable only when clicking on the target and examining the target window. All possible stats on Npcs are as follows:


Armor Rating

This is the value of the armor type given to the Npc which is used in the damage calculations when attacks are made against it. Higher armor ratings means a reduction in the amount of damage taken by the Npc. Armor ratings rank from:

  • 0 (none)
  • 1 (light)
  • 2 (medium)
  • 3 (heavy)


Special Protection, Effectiveness & Vulnerability

These reflect the overall resistance by the Npc to particular damage types made against it. Values listed here are directly subtracted from the damage inflicted on the Npc. Valid ranges are "-" (vulnerable) to "100%" (immune to an attack of that damage type). If a Npc is vulnerable (meaning it has no resistance at all) to a damage type then it is shown under the Vulnerability listing. Each Npc has its own unique set of vulnerabilities and resistances.

Aggressive

This attribute lets players know whether the animal is aggressive or not. Valid values here are Yes or No.


Requires 5 Creature Knowledge Modifier to view

Stalker

This attribute lets players know whether the animal stalks players, Npcs and creatures. Valid values here are Yes or No. The stalker behavior does not seem to apply with npcs.

Tamable

This attribute lets players know whether or not the Npc can be tamed by creature handlers. Valid values are Yes or No

Deathblows

This attribute lets players know whether or not the Npc will potentially kill a player or pet when it incapacitates them. Valid values here are Yes or No

Ferocity

Ferocity stat reflects the chance that the Npc will become aggressive to a target within its detection range.

Combat Difficulty

This attribute lists the consideration scale of the target as compared to the player. The player is notified how strong the opponent is through color coded text. Valid values are:


  • *** %TT is no match for you. (Green)
  • *** %TT looks weak to you. (Light Blue)
  • *** %TT would probably be defeated. (Dark Blue)
  • *** %TT looks like an even match. (White)
  • *** %TT looks like a tough fight. (Yellow)
  • *** %TT looks like instant death. (Red)
