+100 Attack Skill?

[cookie monster]

Everyone seems to be asking about the other prize, but I'm confused as to what +100 Attack Skill means?


Each skill point used for attack counts 10, right?


So basically this is ATK 1000 prize?

[hinofwars]

Yes, that's right.

[cookie monster]

Yes, that's right.

Then, why not just make the sword have an extra 1000 ATK points? What crap!


The skill points aren't a prize. that's like saying the prize is that your weapon inventory goes up by 1. I'd rather have the points to designate as I choose than have them all go to ATK.

Not that I'll have this dilemma in five days, regardless.

Total attack strength = (base from guns + melee + cars + armour + explosives) * (attack skill base * "yet unknown factor")

So it's not just 1000 ontop, could be more at low levels will be less

Skill points aren't just some random number affecting only your TMA and TMD. They are also used in the hidden calculations that determine explosives consumption. The only proof I have for that is my own experience, but I can fight some rivals with 50k true defense and lose nothing and yet I can lose explosives when I fight some other rivals with 35k-40k true defense. I don't believe the "random factor" has that huge of an effect, and these occurrences are not random. It's always the same rivals at 50k that cost me no explosives, and it's always the same rivals with the lower defense that do set off my explosives. The only difference I can think of is where these rivals have chosen to allocate their skill points.

skill points are based on the "wish factor" i wish i knew what they actually did

My understanding is that skill points for attack and defense help more on the lower levels than higher. Is that right for the most part?

I can only speak for myself but when the 100 atk skill was added to the 97 I already had when I got black widow it made me hard to rob or attack and I can take on rivals way above my a & d numbers and win 90% of time. I just hope event shows up for me soon for I will take another 100 and be happy as can be.

At lower levels people have earned fewer skill points to work with. More skill points = bigger difference, so I would say they help more in the higher levels where players have earned more skills and have heavily invested in either attack or defense.

How on earth to you figure ATTACK skills make you harder to rob or attack? You would need defense skill for that to work, and I'm not at all convinced that skill points have anything to do with robberies. They might, but I'm just not convinced that they do.

[outbackhat]

Can only say if person robbing or attacking does not beat my numbers by more than 4000 they fail in robs and attacks only successful 90% of time. you tel me why?, don't claim to be expert in the programming of game only what I experience.
