Stats of creatures

[Endrix]

I´m surprised that the troll have the same stats like the firefly

[SADevil]

Yep, pretty silly after what the manual states:

In combat, its great size and strength mean it
will take to the front-line attempting to block the
progress of an enemy encroachment.

Maiden Poison Spit realy has 2000 Damage?

[tonihele]

Or 200? At least on my version.

[Endrix]

On this page stands 2000. Maybe 10 hits over time?

[Metal Gear Rex]

Yes it's 2000 damage, 200 done over 10 hits, which is 2.5 game seconds. Or at least that's how it should work. I think I remember one of the Maiden's spells not functioning properly at all, but I don't remember which one.

It's a level 8 spell so, while stronger than most spells, it's at best a balanced spell assuming it works. Probably doesn't look balanced compared to all those other terrible spells.

As far as I remember, my tests showed that Maiden Poison Spit deals damage over ~50 seconds. And its shot properties have Data 1: 50. So I could assume that this is a duration of the ability. But I can be wrong because DK2 Editor is pretty uninformative.

Update:
Here's a quote from our earlier discussion:

I have tested Poison Spit and it takes half of 1 level Knight's health in 50 seconds. Second Poison Spit kills Knight (very slowly). So it does 2000 damage in 50 seconds.

Here's a quote from our earlier discussion:

Shot properties' Data stats tend to be ignored entirely, in favor of Creature Spell properties' Data stats, which provide 200 and 10 respectively. I'm not sure what the 10 is then, but if it's 2k damage then it's logical to assume the second data value is the total amount of hits. Poison Spit is an entirely new Process Type, so it's possible they set it to deal damage every 5 seconds until it hits a certain number of times, so the 10. Unless of course the values are bogus and it's hardcoded to do certain stuff, which is also possible.

Unfortunately I can't really test it as I don't have functional 1.7 on me, but I'm sure someone else could by changing the 10 to like 2 and see if it deals 400 damage over 10 seconds, and kills a Level 1 Mistress (2k health) with 5 poisons.
