Sorry friend, it's just luck. Most days I'm the one blocking , so no problem. Also, I run an unblockable build,(bunker and surgery) so no problems there....

Yes it can be luck. At least an instant calculation of what will happen In the turn. and the system doesn't hate you. Maybe you were just unlucky. The server doesn't pick favorites.

Are you out of your mind?? Blocking sounds fine to me. When blocks had a 9% chance at minimum even if people had 0 dex, they still blocked like hell even if some hunter smokescreens you to the point of you having no dex.

I just blocked a str merc 4 times, but he deserved it. The guy only had 27 support and I had 68, but he went first. I say it's a fair trade. Luck 4 luck. :P But nah, blocking is not out of control, it's just a game of numbers and chance.

I think it's rather strange that I never block 5 focus mercs with 63 dex when I was a BH with 84 dex and max SA................

FOUR WHOLE BATTLES. WOW.

*Ahem* I've only lost about four hundred Battles thanks to Mercs, and the fact that nobody cares about how overpowered they are in 2v2... but nobody ever takes pity on me. Does that mean I need to create a new Thread entitled "Mercs are Out OF CONTROL!"?

Oh wait, I forgot. Nobody would listen to me

This is why I stopped playing ED & moved onto AQW, Can't you guys just take it in & realize what the Admins do to help the game, its not like you can make any better game than this, Zach? You sound so immature with your whinning but when other people do it about Mercs you go all protective about them.

@Lectrix: I'm with ya on the thread.

~Raza~ Bh all the way since day one.

Im a BH i got 75 dex + %6 SA , after i use smoke my oponent have 20 dex :S and he blocked me and what i do in that battle Nothing (i didnt do a single block) :(

Its just luck... For me crit getting out of control every match i always get 1 crit but i never complain about that because i got less support.

How can block out of control here is some examples

Me vs STR Merc

1st match:
I used Reflex boost + i got 75 dex + i got lwl 6 SA (%6 block)(total 106 dex and %6 chance to block) - My oponent got 32 dex ( 31 decrease by smoke) , i didnt do a single block and he kill me in 2 hits.

2nd Match
I used Reflex Boost + got 75dex (total 106 dex + %6 block) - STR merc do Stun+ berserker = 2 hit KO

3rd Match
I didnt use Reflex boost ( total i got 75 dex + %6 ) -STR Merc have 63 dex , I did 2 block and win ( how can this be posible? idk)

Conclusion: When i got 106 dex +%6 block chance i didnt do a single block but when i didnt use reflex boost i did 2 blocks :S
Its all about luck ...

Block, like any other "Luck Factor" in this game is like a roll of a dice. I use 90 Dex & Say you have 75 dex. That's a difference of 15 dex points. Including the minimum & maximum Block Chances I have say 17-47 Chance of getting a Block. On your turn to strike, the game engine will start rolling the number generator & stops as you "Strike". If the number generated by the engine is 47 or below, I will block; & if it's higher then I won't. Am not exactly sure, but that's somehow how the Game Engine functions. And it's the same for all Blocks, Crits, Stun & Deflects. It's just a "Roll Of A Dice". You can't beat that but you can only increase your chances by boosting that particular Stat pertaining to that "Luck Factor". That's all. So Chill Out. !

When I smoke someone and they have 0 - 7 dex and they are still able to block (sometimes twice) I dont care what you call it (Luck, the calculated system blah blah blah) I call it lame and a direct insult to the $ I spent on Varium.

I find nothing wrong with blocks cause help me win. But I do find really annoy when your gamma bot shoot lazer out of his month gets block. I feel that should be unblockable attack.

I hope nobody takes it personally that I'm locking up this topic. I'm doing so for the following reasons:

1: The discussion has been done to death. The percent chance to block is a chance based on your dex vs your opponent's dex, and can't go below a certain percent. Blocks sometimes happen, even when your opponent has less dexterity than you have. It happens to all of us, and all of us have been saved by a clutch block. Blocks are actually working as intended, and based on a random number generator- something like this (this is part of a script for a game I'm working on actually, but the enemy's damage is hard-coded, not based on any stats, as is the chance to block, and it's written in JS, modified for Unity, not AS, but the idea is the same):

var block : int;
var damage : int;
function OnTriggerEnter (col : Collider){
var playerStatus : PlayerStatus = col.GetComponent(PlayerStatus);
playerStatus.ApplyDamage(damage);
block = Mathf.Floor(Random.Range(1,100));

if (block =< 50)
{
damage ==0;
}
else if (block => 50){
damage == 3;

}
}


2: Sometimes non-varium players win. Complaints about this seem like they're nothing but trouble.

3: Strategy discussion probably belongs in the Strategy thread.

Battle On!
