Unarmed and kick damage

[Banok]

does anyone know for certain what determines unarmed and kick damage? (like cmp or someone pro)

I assumed it was based on your gloves wieght or armour rating after watching butan get so many fist kills.

obviously I assume strength and powerstrike inc fist damage

fist using 1h wpf right?

is kick damage flat or affected by str/ps/wpf?

yes i'm playing an unarmed char.

[Banok]

also how does blocking with fists work? only reduce damage vs fists or?

[Cyclopsided]

fists do not use any wpf. For they are not a weapon you can have proficiency in. You're always proficient in them. Sad, I know.

Glove weight increase punch damage thanks to crpg devs.
Strength and powerstrike increase all damage (including punches/kicks)

IF PLAYING A BOXER: You still must carry a weapon! Carry it to battle, block in tight situations, then bam punch them to death. You could keep it sheathed for all anyone cares, but you'll die in a dumb situation then.
Can be a cheap weapon, but the whole thing is you must carry one, you can't dodge the upkeep. It makes adminning leechers hard if we make an exception, so that is a strict rule.

I'll note that I'm not 100% sure on kick damage, but I find it hard to imagine it being unaffected by strength and powerstrike. It'd be a simple test too.

Unarmed blocking negates all other unarmed attacks coming at you, but doesn't do anything against swords, save for giving you a lower damage hitbox compared to YOUR FACE. They'll hit your limbs for decreased damage.

hmm thats a shame that its only glove weight, I wish we could specialise in it.

I also wish I could sheath my dagger what 1h weapons can I sheath?

I don't see why it would count as leeching if you are wearing expensive gear/armour. I mean the heavy gauntlets are 16k! i'm also getting kills, albiet on peasant server. and upkeep of a wooden dagger is like 0 anyway.

[Cyclopsided]

Because if e make an exception, every naked/unarmed leecher will say they are boxing not leeching, as they hold w into the other team.
Carry a weapon. It could be a practice sword you kept at your hip for all it matters.

Grab a steel shield and tincan armor than BAM! Fist in yer face!

[Banok]

what if the rule was simply only allowed no weapon if expensive armour. you can legally leech with 10 gold worth of equipment anyway.

and nah i'm a kung fu ninja, shield is boring.

[Miwiw]

Hm, just take a small weapon with you. I think you dont even see the peasant dagger from behind in 3rd person view. Others do of course and they should for that reason. Otherwise you dont see Throwing Stones, neither Throwing Knifes or Throwing Daggers when not used.

[JennaHaze]

Take a wooden dagger and kill em all

[Froto_the_Loc]

I'm sure kick damage is also dependent on boot weight as well.

[OpenPalm]

I also wish I could sheath my dagger what 1h wea

You can sheath all 1h weapons with [\].

[Banok]

cool

but i'm not sure if glove weight only affecting punch damage, bhourd just team punched me and did 25% of my hp. thats 1/2 damage, must have been to my unarmoued face but still DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE. on my ninja with heavy gauntlets I punch people in robes like 10 times and they don't die.

you can feint hits with a weapon with your fist tho!

[Fartface]

[Banok]
