HCI - hit chance increase
DCI - defense chance increase

DI - damage increase

HLA - hit lower attack
HLD - hit lower defense

SR - self repair

MR, mana regen - mana regeneration
HPR, hp regen - hit point regeneration
STR, stam regen - stamina regeneration

NS - night sight

SSI - swing speed increase

MI - mana increase
SI - stamina increase
HPI - hit point increase

LMC - lower mana cost
LRC - lower reagent cost

FC - faster casting
FCR - faster cast recovery

SC - spell channeling

RPD - reflect physical damage

UBWS - use best weapon skill

HSL - hit stamina leech
HLL - hit life leech
HML - hit mana leech

HL - hit lightning
HFB - hit fireball
HMA - hit magic arrow
HH - hit harm

HPA - hit poison area
HEA - hit energy area
(are there other elemental area hits? I can't remember)

#/#/#/#/# - where # is any number from 0 to 70, refers to resitances of armor in this order: physical, fire, cold, poison, energy

Hm. I honestly can't remember ever seeing a hit cold weapon. Do they exist? Logic states that they would, but we all know that EA does not equal logic.

If you wanna get technical there's a "Lower Requirements" augmentation but no one ever talk about that. Didn't see if you put that in there, but I'm guessing not.

Arctic Death Dealer was going to have hit cold area at first, I believe. They changed it after everyone complained that hit areas suck. They aren't so great, really.

Blaze of Death still has hit fire area. There's supposed to be hit areas for all the sorts of damages.

I have an Ogre slayer repeater with 40% hit fire area.But I have never seen hit cold now that you mention it.

Aerilyn · Posted: Tue Nov 23, 2004 7:26 pm Post subject:

There's Hit Fire, Hit Poison, Hit Physical, Hit Energy, and Hit cold.

I had an axe with 15% Hit Cold Area, so hah! They do exist!

Stamina increase should probably be STI and not just SI, consistency wise.

MR = Mana Regen, MI = Mana Increase
HPR = HP Regen, HPI = HP Increase
STR = Stamina Regen, SI = Stamina Increase

last one doesn't fit the pattern, and SI could maybe be confused with SSI?

Just something I noticed, the rest looks right.

Well I use my own lingo that's easier to read. Letters just get confusing, so if I may suggest the following, you don't have to use ALL the words in your abbr:

HP/Stam/Mana +# - Stat Increase
HP/Stam/Mana Regen # - Stat Regen
Str/Dex/Int +# - Attribute Increase
Skill +# - Skill Increase

SSI, DI, HCI, DCI, LRC, LMC, FC, FCR, and SC should all be a given.
Penalty - SC -1.
No Penalty - SC or SCnp

Elements (in order) - Ph/F/C/Ps/E

Yes, all elements have an area. (PhA/FA/CA/PsA/EA #%)
And damages (PhD/FD/CD/PsD/ED #%)

Just a thought here, I would just type it out. It ain't that hard Rolling Eyes

Plus this would take out a lot of page flipping trying to figure out what an abbreviation means.

I'll get my big guide to AOS loot done sooner or later ;p

GRR!!!

Now see what you've done. I've seen ONE post in the Merchant's Emporium and I'm stumped as hell... heh...

Well, here's what it boils down to, IMO.

You can use whatever abbreviations you want, but the more confusing yours are, the more of an earful you'll get from everyone. I just like to type it out so there's no confusion.

Anyone else notice that this thread's getting hijacked?

Can someone please sticky this to the top? I always get all the different ones mixed up. It would be great to have this to be able to look back at when I get all mixed up. Which is normal for me.

Don't forget.

SCNP- Spell channeling without a penalty to faster casting.
