               Here is a basic start to getting damage increase effects if the calculation behind them is already known.  (e.g. if someone has divine might, then the bonus from divine might is known to be the charisma modifier).  Sometimes I am giving benefit of doubt (like higher cleric/paladin level for getting divine favor bonus).


struct damage_struct
{
int nMagical, nDivine, nPiercing, nSlashing, nBludgeoning, nNegative, nPositive;
int nFire, nCold, nAcid, nElectrical, nSonic;
};

               BTW physical damage doesn't have to be categorized since the game engine changes its type to the weapon damage type right?

Also there is warcry, prayer, bard song, pdk feats and war domain... practically impossible to get this done correctly without NWNX. With NWNX it should be easy as NWNX has GetEffectInteger function.

But anyway, had the divine favor and might applied for all arrows with also all arrow property seems very inbalanced to me. And keep in mind that I am admin of epic loot/action module. On my server, imbue arrow is still very powerfull, death arrow is useable even with DC 20, hail can be used to exploit spawn systems, only seeker is somewhat useless.

It does in this case because the damage is not being applied through a weapon, but rather by EffectDamage().  However for DR bypassing, it is a good idea to clump them all together (under one physical type, though I haven't tested combo types like bludgeoning/piercing).  Still, if I am defining a damage struct to potentially be used with other struct functions, I might as well declare all the basics.

Also there is warcry, prayer, bard song, pdk feats and war domain... practically impossible to get this done correctly without NWNX. With NWNX it should be easy as NWNX has GetEffectInteger function.

You can account for the vast majority of the above accurately, if you are looking specifically for them, as I performed above.  Re-calculating the amount may cause assumptions to be made (as with bard song and war domain).

But anyway, had the divine favor and might applied for all arrows with also all arrow property seems very inbalanced to me. And keep in mind that I am admin of epic loot/action module. On my server, imbue arrow is still very powerfull, death arrow is useable even with DC 20, hail can be used to exploit spawn systems, only seeker is somewhat useless.


Probably imbalanced, but at least the scripted calculation doesn't bypass immunities and damage resistance like the normal arrows would with damage increase functions.

               Lazarus: you aksed for ideas, well my idea is to abadon this solution and rather choose a balance change that would work for you, its easier to implement and also easier to balance. For example on Antiworld, physical damage is added to magical which works for them very well and makes from AAs mage killers.

BTW I tried to implement something similar in past for fake attacks with any weapon, but I never implemented it and because of new NWNX features in past year I also abadoned this solution.

However maybe my old code could be some of use to you, so there is it:

struct offensive_info
{
int Bypass;
int Base, Bludgeoning, Divine, Magical, Positive, Negative;
int Piercing, Slashing, Acid, Cold, Fire, Sonic, Electrical;
int AB;
int CriticalThreat;
int CriticalMultiplier;
int Overwhelming;
int Massive;
int Sneak;
};

//inicialize damage, ab etc. for
//nHand - 1 onhand, 2 offhand
//oWeapon - if invalid, considering as unarmed - not work yet
struct offensive_info InitializeCombatInfo(object oAttacker, object oWeapon, int nHand, object oVersus);

struct offensive_info InitializeCombatInfo(object oAttacker, object oWeapon, int nHand, object oVersus)
{
int nBaseItemType = GetBaseItemType(oWeapon);
 if(oWeapon == OBJECT_INVALID)
 {
 oWeapon = GetItemInSlot(INVENTORY_SLOT_ARMS,oAttacker);
 nBaseItemType = BASE_ITEM_GLOVES;
 }
//sanity check?
struct offensive_info c;
c.Sneak = GetLocalInt(oAttacker,"sneak");
int nBase = StringToInt(Get2DAString("baseitems","NumDice",nBaseItemType));
int nBaseDice = StringToInt(Get2DAString("baseitems","DieToRoll",nBaseItemType));
DebugString("BaseDamage",IntToString(nBase)+"d"+IntToString(nBaseDice));
object oLeftHand = GetItemInSlot(INVENTORY_SLOT_LEFTHAND,oAttacker);
int nEnhancement,nAttack,nMighty,bKeen;
int nFirst,nSecond;
int nEnchantArrow = (GetLevelByclass(class_TYPE_ARCANE_ARCHER,oAttacker)+1)/2;

               Thanks for the continued input you all.

BTW physical damage doesn't have to be categorized since the game engine changes its type to the weapon damage type right?

Also there is warcry, prayer, bard song, pdk feats and war domain... practically impossible to get this done correctly without NWNX. With NWNX it should be easy as NWNX has GetEffectInteger function.

But anyway, had the divine favor and might applied for all arrows with also all arrow property seems very inbalanced to me. And keep in mind that I am admin of epic loot/action module. On my server, imbue arrow is still very powerfull, death arrow is useable even with DC 20, hail can be used to exploit spawn systems, only seeker is somewhat useless.


Just to give you a frame of referance Shadooow, a lvl 200 FTR/WM with one of the top end great axes, does about 4-6k dmg on a crit. By comparison a similarially leveled and equiped AA does decent dmg on regular/critical hits, Imbue is really nice, and death arrow is also quite nice, however with hail and seeker they are doing about 150 and 250 dmg respectively for these abilities. The abilities also sacrifice all other actions for that round I believe. So as you can see they are pretty useless by comparison.

You do make a good point though about hail. There are 20-30 maps in the mod (of over 1000+) that use sparky spawns, and in these areas hail is a bit exploitable (also since it recharges, and isn't just a flat 5x/rest.) It doesn't do much dmg, but when hitting 100 targets at once, obviously that's a different story. Fortunately these areas are few compared to all the areas in the mod, but they are quite popolar ones. But for this reason it might be good to only marginally increase hail (If at all), but substantially increase seeker.

Edit: P.S. we do use nwnx.

Here is a basic start to getting damage increase effects if the calculation behind them is already known. (e.g. if someone has divine might, then the bonus from divine might is known to be the charisma modifier). Sometimes I am giving benefit of doubt (like higher cleric/paladin level for getting divine favor bonus).


struct damage_struct
{
int nMagical, nDivine, nPiercing, nSlashing, nBludgeoning, nNegative, nPositive;
int nFire, nCold, nAcid, nElectrical, nSonic;
};


//Gets various values for damage increase effects
struct damage_struct BonusDamage(object oAttacker = OBJECT_SELF);
//Gets the larger of two numbers
int GetHigher(int n1, int n2);

int GetHigher(int n1, int n2)
{
if(n1 > n2)
return n1;
return n2;
}

struct damage_struct BonusDamage(object oAttacker = OBJECT_SELF)
{
struct damage_struct stBonus;
//For divine might use current charisma modifier.
if(GetHasFeatEffect(FEAT_DIVINE_MIGHT))
stBonus.nDivine += GetAbilityModifier(ABILITY_CHARISMA, oAttacker);
//Divine Favor can only be cast on self, thus we can check, paladin/cleric class and give benefit of doubt, UMDers are stuck with default scroll caster level
if(GetHasSpellEffect(SPELL_DIVINE_FAVOR))
stBonus.nMagical += GetHigher(GetHigher(GetLevelByclass(class_TYPE_CLERIC, oAttacker), GetLevelByclass(class_TYPE_PALADIN, oAttacker)), 5)/3;
/*Here insert more spells/feats*/
return stBonus;
}

//This shows how to access struct values
void main()
{
struct damage_struct stDamage = BonusDamage();
int nMagicalDamage = stDamage.nMagical;
int nDivineDamage = stDamage.nDivine;
int nPiercingDamage = stDamage.nPiercing;
}


EDIT:Note that the above will note compile because this social forum always lowercases the word class.


This looks promising Whizard, but I am not exactly sure how to intergrate this into say the seeker script (or the include) to take into account the post 40 dmg?

               Thanks for sharing the code Shadooow, but I am not sure what I would do with this? I will try to look it over in more depth though.

Lazarus: you aksed for ideas, well my idea is to abadon this solution and rather choose a balance change that would work for you, its easier to implement and also easier to balance. For example on Antiworld, physical damage is added to magical which works for them very well and makes from AAs mage killers.

BTW I tried to implement something similar in past for fake attacks with any weapon, but I never implemented it and because of new NWNX features in past year I also abadoned this solution.

However maybe my old code could be some of use to you, so there is it:

               What would you do? Probably reuse some knowhow that is there and you missed it like massive damage, ranger favored enemy etc. at least if you are still going this route.

To implement post 40 bonus into  AA arrows is easy, try this:

int Post40DMGBonusForAA(object oPC)
{
 // Modifier introduced for barbarian rage
 float fBonusMod = GetLocalFloat(oPC, "core_post_modifier");
 int nXP = GetXP( oPC );
 int nLevel = pf_GetLevelFromXP( nXP );
 if ( nLevel < 40 )
 {
return 0;
}
   int nStrMod = GetAbilityModifier( ABILITY_STRENGTH, oPC );
   
   int nPost = ( nLevel - 40 );
   int nPureBonus = 0;
   int nRequiredXP = ((( nLevel * ( nLevel + 1 )) / 2 ) * 1000 );
   float fMeleeFactor = calcMeleeFactor( oPC );

   if ( fMeleeFactor == 1.0 )
   {
     nPureBonus = nPost/8;
   }
   fMeleeFactor += fBonusMod;

   int nAB = FloatToInt( IntToFloat( nPost )/ 2.0 * fMeleeFactor );

   if ( GetIsObjectValid( GetItemPossessedBy( oPC, "GrtrMeleeRunV2" )))
   {
     fMeleeFactor *= 1.0 + (0.5);
}
   else if ( GetIsObjectValid( GetItemPossessedBy( oPC, "LesrMeleeRunV2" )))
   {
     fMeleeFactor *= 1.0 + (0.25);
   }

   int nBonus = FloatToInt( IntToFloat( nPost ) / 2.0 * fMeleeFactor ) + nPureBonus;
   return nBonus;
   }


and then add the value of
int post40dmg = Post40DMGBonusForAA(oPC);
into AA arrow damage calculation as a piercing for example.
