The most damage has allready been calculated in a post once, with credits to both Dundee and Alson. Especially Alson though, for defying the laws of physics and managing to get a seemingly impossible combo. of events.

Anywayz, cant remember the name of the post anymore, but I'm hoping either Dundee or Alson remember it when they read this and post a link or something [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ah... daan. It was Jim, not Alson. [img]smile.gif[/img] pcgiant has given the link above. Alson calculated the most damage per round, Jim calculated the most damage per hit. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Don't feel so bad. I have made some pretty big blunders too, and had to metaphorically eat my foot( if not feet).

For those few of us who prefer not to use the ToB add-on: I don't suppose there are max damage numbers specifically for "straight" SoA - that is, without ToB attached?... (I had ToB once but I got rid of it so please don't suggest I should load it ) Of course the standard SoA patches apply.

I don't remember the exact number, but the best hit I've played was Valygar's 6x critical backstab with Celestial Fury (which is weird since I didn't think Rangers could backstab that high, but believe me, that's what I saw on the screen - wonder if it was a bug)... IIRC, which I don't, it was in the 130-160 range. But then again he WAS dual-wielding his Corthala katana... hmm

I know, I know - - I suppose I'm just a purist or something.

First of all I don't like that annoying pause when I arrive at a new area (it's like the game thinks it's in multiplayer mode and I can't seem to turn that off). Also I enjoy the unity of the single storyline in SoA, and I like to use the low-level spells more - with ToB, the enemies (which you HAVE to fight, can't bypass them like SoA) are SO raging that the only spells they can't seem to save against are the killer spells (Dragon'sBreath, ADHW, ProjectImage, etc) - so it was a little bit one-dimensional for me... Plus the questing in ToB was more linear than SoA, where you could wander through Chapters 2-5.

[BTW, where do we draw the line between SoA and ToB anyway? Seems like a lot of cross-talk so to speak between the two forums...]

Anyway, to get back to the topic, I will have to try Valygar again to make sure a sextuple backstab wasn't a bug; this time I'll try to get a screenshot for proof of the damage numbers

Well, I'm not playing ToB right now, but I still have it installed.

Its worth installing - in my opinion - if you don't mind lots of HLAs.

Its nice just for the small improvements, and so you don't end up hitting the cap and getting bored.
