throwing weapon wpf?

[Chen1201]

so how much wpf would i need to pick up javelins? because i want to make a decent 1h/ thrower hybrid

[erlk0nig]

javs need 3 PT, and if speculation is to be believed (most likely not) you need between 12-14 wpf per level, not counting the first level of PT which is approx. 60 (?), so I'd say between 84-88 WPF

TL;DR 'bout 84

(talking through my hat, so please get some verification before investing the points)

depends heavily on the armor you intend to use, post your normal gear set up and it'll be easier to give an exact (ish) answer.

You need 13 effective wpf per PT and 14 effective wpf per PD.

So if you have 10 PT with 130 wpf, it'll work as long as you stay under the weight limit so that you get absolutely no wpf reduction since it'll get your effective WPF under the 130 required.

Weight limit I believe is something between 7 and 7.5.

Head is x2 weight and boots and gloves are x3 weight when it comes to the weight calculation for the wpf/weight limit thingymajig.

[Chen1201]

and if you go over the limit how much would it reduce the wpf?

The effective PT is lowered if you go ever the limit.

With 4 PT and the armor set you posted, you'd need about 81 wpf.
5 PT -> 94
6 PT -> 107
7 PT -> 120

[Crob28]

and if you go over the limit how much would it reduce the wpf?

I'm fairly sure that every 1.0 in weight over the limit results in a -1% to wpf

[Chen1201]

ah thanks for the responses guys =D

i will do a 12/27 thrower ninja so i will wear black ninja equipments(black leammer, black hood with mask, khergit leather boots and leather groves) and what wpf i need for 4 pt and this weight?

[Paul]

For PT4 and this outfit it would be 64+-1 wpf.

[Iymore]

thanks but i have changed my mind

What is the best pure throwing build? I guess with some left over points for ps?

[dontgothere]

Well, I finally retired Artie.    Prolly shouldn't've.

Since it takes 13 wpf per PT, that means it takes 143 WPF for 11 PT.  You'd need, like, level 32 for that, even if you sacrificed any points in athletics, and only put them into PT and WM.  So I think what I've done with Artie is the best possible pure throwing build, and it wraps up at 10 PT.

Now that I've answered someone else's question, can you guys help me with one please?

I've retired Artie and I'm starting him over, but I need to know if CRPG still gives a warning in red text about having too little WPF for one's PT.  Will that still show up, or do I just have to guess if my PT is getting nerfed?

pretty sure it only shows up if you are Low on WPF per PT and NOT receiving benefit from one of your PT point(s)
