I imagine it would be even more useful in NV, since most enemies are ranged attackers.ДЄlso, while the vanilla dodge moves bothered me, the mod Deadly Reflexes changed the animations (and i believe tweaked the mechanics) of the dodge moves so they weren't big leaps from side to side, but more of a spin/side-step. archers (i used a mod that greatly increased bow/arrow dmg). Those moves saved my char's ass plenty of times vs. Siobhan Thompson Posts: 3443 Joined: Sun 10:40 amДЄll this talk about dodging has got me wondering if it would to possible to add 'dodge moves' like in oblivion. Maybe even make it a factor or combination of all three, Agility, Melee and Unarmed if at all possible. Just make them miss more often or gives them the probability of missing more often the higher and higher your unarmed skill and agility become. I think Agility and unarmed should affect DT in some way, unless there's some type of global thing that could be applied to enemies that I don't even think that Agility affects your DT in the slightest in this game.I think it should.ДЄs it stands, I could learn all those special moves and have 100 in unarmed, but getting from point A to Point B (where the Raider with the 100 Submachine gun is) In most other CRPGS it affects your Ranged Hit Chance, your Dodge Chance, and even Armor Class, nice stuff like that. That's why SPECIAL throws me off so much in these games, Agility in this game really only gives you more AP, and gives you bonuses to lockpicking, Is the game going to do the slow motion death, or is the script going to act fast enough to keep you alive? you use a heal script to negate the damage, as if it was a 'Dodge', your character has 24 hit points left and gets hit for 28 points of damage, now your heal script checks and kicks in, also im thinking of tying dodge to agility by making the player lose AP equal to the damage 'dodged' or skill of the opponent used.Д«ut could that happen fast enough to avoid an unnecessary death?

the only way to do that that i can think of right now is by a script healing the damage 'dodged'. However its not in the concept of a DT or resisting damage, but avoiding it entirely just like the AC of my monk character that made her really hard to hit at all. also, Arwen's Realism Tweaks gives blunt weapons a chance to knockout enemies as well. In any case, i recommend you keep an eye on Asimov's melee mod (thread somewhere on this page as of writing) that imposes penalties on ranged fighters fighting in melee range. i like something like the D&D system of 'saving throws' and 'Difficulty class' so that a 1 END guy hit by a sledgehammer is more likely to go down than a 10 END guy.

that means that a 1 STR, 10 melee fighter has the same chance as a 10 STR, 100 melee fighter of knocking down either a 1 END, 10 melee or 10 END, 100 melee opponent. in vanilla, for example, the super slam perk gives a 15 or 30 % chance to knockdown. the idea is that melee/unarmed fighters can dominate opponents when they come into their range.ДЄ core concept in my idea is pitting stats/skills of opponents against each other. melee is more straightforward, damage dealing and knocking down.

so head would knockout or blind (dont know yet how to simulate this), arms would disarm, legs knockdown, and of course, a chance to cripple any limb hit. unarmed would have a chance to disable depending on the body part hit. also, if someone who actually knows how to do this right reads this, they might decide to do it insteadД¬urrently im looking at making unarmed more of a disabler/defensive style while melee focuses more on damage and knockdowns. How about we start a discussion of what you'd like to see? im in a VERY early stage of planning for something to level the field for unarmed/melee and would like to get ideas.
