this is good initiative i will do my best to go out and test some mobs out here


started with elslug young


Mob : Elslug
Maturity: Young
Max Dmg 15.7


*note i tested on 2 youngs for about 10 minutes , i thought for about 7 or 8 minutes 15.6 was highest and then i got 15.7 so that makes me wonder what is the change off getting a max crit and how long should you test for a good riliable result?


Mob: Foulito Alba
Maturity: Aprentice
Max Dmg: 19.8


*note i tested this even longer with more mobs got the 19.8 only after long time

I had a recent thought that although the low number of the range isn't that important, it's still nice to know for kicks and giggles so perhaps send in 2 numbers, example, low:34.6 high 44.7 just a thought

hmmm that is way harder because then avoids and other skills really do count so what maybe 10 for someone maybe 0.5 or 1 for another
or am i wrong here?

Thanks for the figures so far! I've also found that it takes quite a bit of time to determine the highest possible damage from a ST (typing strike-through every time is just too much work, haha).

If you're happy to take the kind of time necessary to really feel confident that's great, but realistically I think this will end up being a group effort - everyone posts the highest they've seen unless a higher figure has already been posted - since there are so many mobs and SO MANY maturity levels.

At the risk of making this the longest thread ever, it would make things easier to track if everyone posted a new reply even if they want to update their own figures. If this starts expanding quickly I'll break the thread up into animals, mutants, and robots if not more.

@Z.A.V., I thought about the lower amount too but I've seen rare occasions where hard-hitting mobs get an ST with little or no damage done even without armor. This tells me that there's a possibility that all mobs could have an ST of 5 damage or less, though the odds of this happening are extremely small compared to the typical damage. If true, there's no real point in keeping track since this would mean that the lower limit of all STs is close to 0 damage.

I'm wondering now about the reliability of ST damage after all now that I think about Madseend's point. There's some evidence (from the experiences of players who inserted a bunch of avoidance SNIs) that one or more of the non-avoidance skills may also have some impact on what damage a mob does even with an ST hit.

I'd love it if two people would be willing to stand next to each other trying to find the highest ST of a particular mob of a particular maturity. If the highest numbers closely match after 60 STs I think it's safe to say that STs truly strike through all skills. But if there's a significant difference we may have to figure out a different way to determine the true max damage of each mob.

hehehe you call them non-avoidance skills i call them secondary avoidance skills.

my vieuw is that secondary avoids help to lower the average dmg off the ST's if  the 2 stand next to each other with same lvl off avoids but difference in other skills and both get 60 ST the one with higher secondary avoidance skills will have way lower average dmg on ST's and on normal hits also offcourse.
