Large size and knockdown, anyone else willing to test?

Post by Krishna » Sat Aug 06, 2005 11:36 am

Well I tested it with my half-ogre yesterday and it looks like at least half-ogres get no bonus for large size, infact a small size creature can knock them down(or at least mine) as if they were a medium size creature with normal knockdown..

So if anyone has a wemic would you mind testing this, same for a half-ogre character? If they don't get this wondering if there is anyone to fix it. Thanks to anyway who helps test this, seems real screwy to me..

(edit) Yeah and if they don't get it looks like this all you really get for being large size: Can use large weapons in one hand, -1 atb -1 ac, no two hand 1.5 weapon bonus..

The size factor for knockdown no longer affects the Attack Bonus for the player as per the manual. It was changed in 1.65

The factor only affects the discipline checks now.

EDIT: Found the quote in the Bioware logs.

Then why can a small size creature with normal knockdown still put a large size creature on their rear? Can only knockdown one size category larger..

(edit) Wait, I have it! Bioware does it again! -_-
