Talk:Spear of Light

Is the Damage Chart Right?

I've been messing with spear of light at rank F and something is really amiss about the damage. While the chart says 750 base explosion at rank F.... I've seen the spear hit even 1.5k without a critical hit. I also seen it do even 3k, 4k, even up to 6k to some monsters. What's up with the numbers? Does higher total increase the damage or what? How does this work out? --Miyuna 04:26, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

I've noticed this too, my rank 6 light spear seems to do ~1.5~2k damage. Tellos 01:21, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

I feel like there is a bonus damage rate and the damage is the "base" like it literally says and that additional damage can be built up through some requirement. Do you suppose the higher number of times you rebirth the higher the damage or some other modifier like that? --Miyuna 02:57, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

well it seems that pally transform ups the damage too? dunno if that helps. x.x I have no hard numbers. -- ladywinter ~{talk | contribs}~ 03:01, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Maybe the rank of Awakening of Light adds a skill effect multiplier? If there are any multipliers or base damage modifiers they will be in the var list of the skill in Skill_leveldetail.xml. I can't access post G9 skills for it, or I'd add in AoLs regen rates and other things that are tricky to find. Tellos 17:13, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Spear of God

If it bypasses any sort of passive defense, does that mean it hits for full damage against the Liches and Banshee? Remillo 00:44, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Rage of wings can, so perhaps spear of god can as well? Untill someone does it we won't know. Tellos 01:11, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

No. It doesn't work to Liches and Banshee. --Juff 05:25, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Can evasion be used to dodge Spear of Light? After spearing a rank F evader about 6 times, he was hit every time. But I'm not convinced yet...

The timing would have to be god-like, if you ask me. Especially if you have r1 Spear of Light.

Spear of Light at r1 has an explosion radius of 300, Evasion's movement distance is 350. 50 isn't that big of a difference. If you hit him mid-evasion then obviously it's going to hit him with whatever rank Spear of Light.

But that's just my speculation.

It cannot be evaded through Evasion. More than likely, you roll outside the hit area.

Makes sense, because I tested it like another 20 times and he was hit every time. Then instead of targeting him, I targeted the ground and he managed to get out of range with evasion.

This has been on my to do list for years, but more people helping would be easier. I'm trying to pin down the multiplier on the players damage.

I know the following things:

Player min, max, and balance are factored in.

The damage is based on the players damage shown in the character screen. This means if you have a bow its dex bessed, melee is str based, etc.

It counts as base damage, so crit is also part of it.

What I don't know:

The multiplier (I know it could be as high as x15)

Special upgrade crit increase factor.

If anyone could help me get more samples so I can get an exact multiplier it'd be much appreciated

Please be sure to use it on Foxes or Bears (1 def 0 prot) to get accurate measurements

Include your max and min. Also include your SoL rank. If you are using +Damage enchants please list those as well as my initial testing shows they could be factored in differently.

Even if its just a few, it'll add up and we can pin down the multiplier.

Does it really do that? Because I just Spear of God a Wild Troll and it only did 6k damage...

Shouldn't it do more than that if it ignores?

Experiment it.

Oh god...

Enjoy burning a crap load of AP to repair that brionac of yours. XD

The page only says it ignores Defense and Passive Defenses. Not Protection. Case closed.

It also says Protection on Status page.

Based on the damage you dealt and what the skill page says, I'd say the Status page's information is inaccurate.

Honestly, I think Demigod skills could be slightly inaccurate due to its semi-incomplete status (with the Spear of God and Shadow Spirit tables).

Does it HAVE to have Shock? D:

demi god is ok

just wondering. do u need to be on Neahbeim (cant spell her name)'s contract to use it?--Teoh 07:23, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Yes.

What does this even mean?

Over 10k? Over 20k? Over 100k?!

Someone please come up with a better way of wording this so it's clear.
