In a specialist’s hands
A Warrior, built by the game’s rules for each level, with points spent on this weapon first and the standard staff for that level.
| Level | Item | Proficiency | Strength | Dexterity | Hit | Critical | Hit chance | Critical chance | AP per attack | Per 100 AP | Price |
|---|
| 1 | Common Iron | 3 | 4 | 4 | 10 | 20 | 77% | 7% | 75 | 11 | 8 |
| 10 | Uncommon Steel | 6 | 6 | 5 | 17 | 34 | 81% | 11% | 63 | 24.3 | 24 |
| 20 | Rare Orcish | 9 | 8 | 7 | 30 | 60 | 86% | 16% | 49 | 61.1 | 55 |
| 30 | Elite Dwarven | 10 | 9 | 9 | 43 | 86 | 89% | 19% | 40 | 113.9 | 104 |

Hit chance is before the target’s evade; bows and crossbows also lose up to 15% of it toward the far end of their reach. Per 100 AP is the expected damage for every 100 action points, counting misses and critical hits, against a target with no evade or resistance.
