err.. math

it says that the number of hits is 10+10 i assume that meens 10 for each volly and they forgot the final hit?

it also says that, at rank one, each hit does 90% damage.

now, hear's the problem: it says that the total damage is 900%.

i'm going to assume again that the final hit is forgoten again.

math: 10+10=20, 20*90=1800

sooo... something's wrong.

either they ment it's 900% damage per volly(not total), it's actualy 45% damage per hit, or there are actualy only 5 hits per volly.

it only gets worce if we consider the final hit, wich aperently does 240%(still at rank 1)

more math: 900-240=660, 660/20=33

900(the "total damage") minus 240(the final hit's damage) is 660, 660(the amount left for the two sets of volllys to deal) devided by 20(the amount of hits in the vollys combined) is 33, meening that the damage per hit would be 33%

my question to you: did i just read something wrong? or should the page be edited?

(maybe a test is in order?)

Its 10 for the first set of rapid flurries and another 10 for the second set of rapid flurries.

er... exactly.. so does that mean that each set of hits( a flurry) does 900% damage, making the total damage 900% + 900% + 240% (90% per hit as it says on the page and then the final hit)adding up to 2040% damage?

90% for each flurry. OR MAYBE NOT, no idea.

thought of that too ^_^; but that's 90 + 90 + 240 = 420% and not the 900% "total" the page states

Considering the fact that this was here since the page was first created (With the 10+10 and finishing damage being put in some time afterwards.) it's quite possible we have inaccurate information here.

It seems whoever changed it forgot to half the damage %'s?

I've been doing about 20 minutes of testing with this, so I'll leave this data here:

• Max Damage - 283
• Pummel Rank - 9
• Hits per flurry - 8
• Expected Total Damage of Pummel - 620%
• Expected Total Damage - 283 x 6.2 = 1,754.60
• Highest Damage per hit (first flurry) - 99 (~35%)
• Highest Total Damage (first flurry) - 792 (~280%)
• Highest Damage per hit (bonus flurry) - 99 (~35%)
• Highest Total Damage (bonus flurry) - 792 (~280%)
• Highest Damage (finishing blow) - 682 (~241%)

I can't figure out how to reach the 620% though... Edit: Forgot to add, the tests were done on Young Brown-Tailed Mongooses, which have only 1 defense and probably 0 protection. (and thus neglectable unless every hit brings its defense into the formula, which would give it 8 defense per flurry....meh.)

Kevin, just what does it say in you know where?

Also, is it really 240% on final damage for rank 9?

SO SORRY.

I woke up realising I forgot my damage was also increased by Combo Mastery. Let me review my calculations and update it...

• Max Damage - 283
• Pummel Rank - 9
  • Hits per flurry - 8
• Combo Mastery Rank - 1
  • Increased Damage - 30% (Human)
• Expected Total Damage of Pummel - 620%
  • Expected Total Damage (w/ Combo Mastery) - 620% x 1.30 = 806%
• Expected Total Damage - 283 x 8.06 = 2,280.98
• Highest Damage per hit (first flurry) - 99 (~35%)
  • Percentage without Combo Mastery - 35% / 1.30 = 26.92% (~27%)
• Highest Total Damage (first flurry) - 792 (~280%)
  • Percentage without Combo Mastery - 280% / 1.30 = 215.40% (~215%)
• Highest Damage per hit (bonus flurry) - 99 (~35%)
  • Percentage without Combo Mastery - 35% / 1.30 = 26.92% (~27%)
• Highest Total Damage (bonus flurry) - 792 (~280%)
  • Percentage without Combo Mastery - 280% / 1.30 = 215.40% (~215%)
• Highest Damage (finishing blow) - 682 (~241%)
  • Percentage without Combo Mastery - 241% / 1.30 = 185.38 (~185%)
    • Combined Total Damage - 792 + 792 + 682 = 2,266
    • Combined Total % - 215% + 215% + 185% = 615%

Aha! Not so far off anymore, now.

well done, seems like the total damage really is the total damage. guess that meens someone has some editing to do. ^_^

Blame nexon for writing it like that >.>
