Ranged weaponskill calculations

[ubermonkey]

Can anyone remind me of how to calculate the base damage for ranged weapons for WS?

I'm sure I remember seeing that the damage of ammo is worked into the calculation for weaponskills twice.

Cheers.

((Weapon+Ammo D) + fSTR2 + WSC) * fTP * PDIF


fSTR2 does not account for ammo damage, only your base weapon damage. It caps at (D/9) + 8.

WSC for all RNG WS's is as follows (at L75):

Marksmanship: 0.84 * (AGI * 0.3)
Archery: 0.84 * (STR * 0.16) + 0.84 * (AGI * 0.25)

fTP for Sidewinder/Slug Shot is 5.0
fTP for Arching/Heavy Shot is 3.5
fTP for Quested WS is 2.0/2.5/3.0 at 100/200/300% TP

Namas Arrow (Relic WS) has WSC of: 0.84 * (STR * 0.4) + 0.84 * (AGI * 0.4)
Namas Arrow has an fTP value of 2.75

Coronach has WSC of 0.84 * (DEX * 0.4) + 0.84 * (AGI * 0.4)
Coronach has fTP value of 3.0

It's 0.83 for Lv74-75, not 0.84
fSTR2 cap at (int(D/9)+8)*2
and don't forget to truncate the decimal after you add two attribute %age in WSC as well as after multiplying it by 0.83

Does this work with /rng as well?

Could have sworn it was .84, but I know the data and theory behind it has been revised quite a bit since when I memorized the calculations. And yeah, fSTR2 is *2
