Posted: Thu Jul 10, 2003 5:16 pm Post subject: Question about how Merc starting stats |
|
|
I recently found out that apparently perception is a big deal when it comes to ranged weapons. Since Mercs are supposedly the "kings of pulse weapons" how come we start out with lower perception compared to agility and coordination. I can see how perception would figure into the equations but I see coordination and agility as being the big stats. (being able to aim your gun where you want it and keep it steady)
muh muh muh monster kill!

Mercs are the king of all weapons. Simply put, high coordination will overall benefit you with more weapons as a whole than perception will. Coordination is very significant for pulse weapons in addition to perception, thought perception is slightly more important. In reality, coordination is a prime stat for ALL weapons.
Agility is simply very important for defense and while a good offense may be the best defense in the eyes of a Merc, the need for defense is still very real. _________________ "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something." -- Plato

Can we have a Trogdor-esque critter come to invade Llanfair? Pretty please? It'll encourage teamwork and it'll give us something to tell our grandkids.

Technically, you are correct. Mercs are the masters of ALL weapons, (+10% to all attack rolls). _________________ "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something." -- Plato
