Game mechanics/Hero

Warrior

• Potion of Strength identified at the start
• Starting Strength = 11

Berserker

When the damage done by a Furious warrior is calculated, the damage rolled by the weapon is multiplied by 1.5 rounded down.

The Furious buff is applied when the Hero's damage reduces the Hero's health below 0.4 of the Hero's total health.

Main article: Combo

If the Hero hits an enemy 3, or more, times in a row, each of his hits will be more powerful than the previous, with the damage multiplier increasing by 0.2 each time. The 1st two hits have their damage multiplied by 1 (i.e. no change), while the 3^rd hit is multiplied by 1.2; the 4^th by 1.4; the 5^th by 1.6; et c.

However, the number of turns between successful hits, in order to keep the buff active, is decreasing. There should be, at most, 1.1 turns between 1^st and 2^nd successful hit; 1.1 turns again between 2^nd and 3^rd; 1.01 between 3^rd and 4^th; 0.91 between 4^th and 5^th; 0.81 between 5^th and 6^th; et c. A fast-enough weapon allows to keep the buff active, even in case of dodged hit, as long as the maximum delay between successful hits is met.

As there should be a negative time (-0.09 turns) between the 14^th and 15^th successful hits, a 14-hit combo is the absolute maximum attainable hit. Reaching the 14-hit combo requires an attack speed of 100 (as maximum delay between the 13^th and 14^th successful hits is 0.01 turns), which can be reached only with a knuckleduster (speed = 2) and haste level of at least 42 (speed multiplier > 50), which is, in practice, impossible, even with Hero's remains. Haste level of 16 is enough for reaching 13-hit combo with a knuckleduster.

Battlemage

• Gains 1 wand charge on melee hit with that wand. (As of Update 1.6.1b, hits dealing zero damage do not restore wand charges.)

• FORMULA NEEDED: Find formula for damage of wielded wands, esp. as function of level
