Combat mechanics

This will where I record all my research into combat mechanics. I'm going to generally be looking at histograms, or the distribution of number of hits for each of the 20 different hit values. DPS or averate hit values may ultimately be all that we care about, but looking at the full distribution can provide a lot more detail. I'll be starting just about from scratch, working to confirm almost everything about combat no matter how obvious it may seem. I'll be drawing heavily from https://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=40543, which has an immense amount of work on combat mechanics. Several times I've thought I've discovered something new just to find Torven has already documented how it works.


Defense

This research was initially posted in a thread on Ranger AC which seems to show that the common wisdom that AC "doesn't work on rangers" is incorrect or incomplete. I started weighing in around the 10th page with some parses and eventually decided they deserved to be recorded somewhere on the wiki for easier reference.


The first set of parses are against Shiel Glimmerspindle, a level 40 rogue in North Karana.


54 Cleric vs Shiel Glimmerspindle All worn AC numbers will include ~64 spell AC from Armor of Protection (15 AC), Shield of Words (31) , and Heroism (18-19).
