Title: Not enough st for weapon handling?
Post by: Aniketos on April 13, 2010, 07:28:14 pm

What are the negative effects for not having enough strenght while using guns?

For example I have 3 and rifle requires 5 and I seem to be able to shoot fine with it...

you will lack accuracy while targeting and you are more likely to have critical failures (miss turn, weapon destroyed...)

It gives you a penalty to accuracy for each point you lack.
I think it is -20% for each point. So -40% if you have 3 instead of 5 ST that's required. Having high skill makes this not very noticeable at closer range.

Having your gun explode is pretty bad.

I love having 60% chance to hit my opponent in the eyes! But yeah, if you are going for a 2 strength build with Weapon Handling, don't expect to be making good eye shots at long or average range until level 15 (since not taking Lifegiver is a bad idea).

I was doing pretty fine till lvl 15 after that  I got +3 to weapon handling :)

Honestly speaking it wasn't a huge difference.

I wonder if they reworked it or if we are just lucky, seems like it used to be worse.
