what the hell

why do i need to put 2 hydra 2 skel in a +10 composite bow?
is 2hydra and 2skel the best card for a sniper?

i mean, i can just use 4 hydras instead of hunting for skels?

It's a simple mathematic kind of thing, to optimize your power. See, the same cards stack, so having four hydra's will give you 180% total damage.

However, consider that you have two sets of 140%.

140% x 140% = 196% total damage.

Using four hydras instead of two hydras and two skeleton works would simply mean that you've lost that 16% additional damage. This might not be that big of a deal for you. It's simply for those who want to optimize their damage potential.

Algebra is your friend

A=Hydra = 20%
B=Skel Worker = 15%

so... A^2*B^2 > A^4

20^2*15^2 = 40*30 = 1200

20*4 = 80

Hope you understand

Damn. I forgot that the skeleton was 15%, not 20%. xD Pfft. I'm an idiot sometimes.

Bors, while the alegbra looks right, considering the equation is put in percentages, I think it's more around 120 than 1200 in the game. xD All the same, it's the basic idea. Though, from your math, that's right. o.o So... Meh. =P

i dont get it
not in a million years

no wait, i got it

lol usually its cause ppl want the skele-workers so they do more dmg to the emp =P

[phranxis]

so that means the "neutralize" thingy is false?

[Guest]

lol honestly i dunno if thats true or not

but to my experience its usually ppl want the extra dmg to the emp and cause the skele workers will also do extra dmg to the ppl

Emperium is small size. But if you're refering to the additional +15attack from Skeleton Worker, then yes, its very true.

[Guest]

lol really? huh lol ooops *looked up the wrong emp* >.<

[AlviN]

but did u tried the difference of damage in actual game instead from theoritical calcutaion standpoint???
i mean im also plannin to find out too to collect +10 compos on those combos to find out...

[DjTeddySpin]

I tested it. But on theoretical calculations, triple bloody boned has 1% more dmg. I can't possibly test out that 1% in game cos it'd be physically impossible. Just that if you're not a 99dex full out offensive, then the +15 attack from double bloody double boned might work better than the additional 1% from triple bloody boned.

Didn't read the other posts but lets say you got 3 Hydra cards and 1 Skeleton Worker Card. Doesn't the Skeleton Worker card multiply instead of add because it's a size modifier, not a race modifier?

[phranxis]

so if i would have a dragontail card combo(which i have)... how many times is that?

[AlviN]

how bout quad boner
