This whole game is a thing of the past... let alone tags!
Anyone remember the test fights from when skills were first introduced? Zen tested it with like 100 skills in SBM and just derped everything
You mean this..
For instance, take my test case (500 tests each rank). A level 20 with all 20's for stats using a T-350 shotgun fighting a level 30 with all 30's for stats using SiC armor.
Rank 0 (standard) = 2.65 hits per attack for an average of 168.2 total damage
Rank 1 = 2.98 hits per attack for an average of 193.7 total damage
Rank 2 = 3.09 hits per attack for an average of 210.5 total damage
Rank 3 = 3.37 hits per attack for an average of 237.8 total damage
Rank 4 = 3.51 hits per attack for an average of 268.1 total damage
Rank 5 = 3.68 hits per attack for an average of 301.8 total damage
Rank 100 (just for kicks) = 1 hit per attack for an average of 2,215.5 damage
As you can see the effects are slight per rank, but add up in the long run. Going from rank 0 to rank 5 almost doubled total damage per attack. Of course your results may vary. The rank 100 test was just for fun, but made damage go well beyond the max for the weapon.
