Hello. I decided to post some statistics in regard of the new damage divider
"fix". It wis very nice that some wizards pay attention to the general game
balance and do this kind of fine tuning.
However, I'm a Centaur with 90 long blades skill, 90 throw weight, 87 Siz,
approx. +40-50 dam. The following hits are scored to non-stunned, normal 2-10k
monsters with a sizzling loc blade and waino sword.
Before the fix:
1% cut, 47% tear, 46% incise, 6% shred.
After the fix:
16% cut, 71% tear, 13% incise.
And yes, my hoof damage dropped to somewhere near half of what they used to
hit. I know Centaurs used to be very powerful, but is it really intended that
big horsepeople hit less than dwarfs or gnolls?

If you count hooves you probably still hit harder than a dwarf or a gnoll?
I don\'t really know how linear the effect of +dam is, but if it is
purely linear (unlikely) then you hit as hard as a gnoll or a dwarf except
that you get +hoofbasedamage*2 and the ability to wield bigger weapons.

Eronk is allready wielding such potent weapons that 'wielding bigger weapons'
is no excuse that centaurs should still hit like dwarves and gnolls. As they
proably would hit as hard with a maul than dwarf does with a mace.

.... but he has two hooves to compensate, which probably do compensate,
neh?

The hooves _could_ _maybe_ compensate if they hit the monster as often as
the weapons. As they are now, they do \'You miss\' most of the time.
