My Archer had -24 THACO... ... I might as well add a laser targeter to his Heartseeker just for kicks. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Level 34 Archer, Robin Hood... ... so base THACO is 0.

Kit advantages: -1 THACO every 3 levels until level 18, -1 THACO every 5 levels after that... ...

So that's -9 THACO there... ...

Grandmastery in Long Bows.

Another -3 THACO there... ...

Bracers of Archery.

Another -2 THACO there... ...

Heartseeker +3.

Another -3 THACO there... ...

Girdle of Fire Giant Strength.

Another -4 THACO there... ...

Pale Green Ioun Stone.

Another -1 THACO there... ...

Hmmmm... ... odd, that is only -22 THACO, I forgot where the other -2 THACO comes from.

I think the reason for the other 2 points of THAC0 is that the Heartseeker is a composite longbow, so you get a +2 THAC0 bonus with it even before the +3 enchantment level.

Dundee Slaytern 09-29-2001 07:36 AM

Heartseeker is a Composite Long Bow? I do not think so, but I think I know where I got the other -2 THACO, Robin Hood had 18 DEX, another -2 to his hit roll, not sure whether that is referring to THACO.

It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

What are you saying? Are you trying to tell me you have feelings now? Ha, ha, ha... Stop acting as if you're sad. And there's no need to act as if you're angry either. Because, Cloud, you are... a puppet.

I may be a bit confused but I seem recall that strength does not affect THAC0 or damage when using missile weapons, and the to hit rolls are only altered by dexterity? (19 dex gives my elven archer bonus +3 to hit) Can anyone confirm this?

Debaser 10-01-2001 05:38 PM

Jim--

Strength affects missile damage in the case of a composite longbow. Dexterity is what affects the Thaco of missile damage (if it is high enough, of course.)
