Item Attributes

Hey guys,

i'm playin' Wynncraft for about 2-3 weeks and there are a few questions left.
I've seen some item attributes and don't know the difference or what the effect of them are.

1. Thorns
> for example: i've 50% thorn - when the attacker makes 1ßß dmg, will he get 50 dmg too?

2. Reflection
> isn't this the same as thorns? i really don't know :D

3. Melee Damage
> most time i'm playin' with an archer and idk why there is melee damage on a few bows. Am i wrong is this totally useless?

4. Life Steal / Mana Steal
> how does this works? Do i only get this life while i'm fighting or what? Or is it enough that i hit an enemy and then i steal life for 4 seconds, no matter if i'm still fighting or runnin'? xD

I hope some of you can answer my question :)

Thanks a lot ;)

 

Idk how the calculation of damage works but 50% is the chance it has to activate

Thorns can activate when hit by a melee, while reflection can activate when hit by a projectile/spell

Melee damage is pretty useless besides charging up powder specials because of single target on archers but it is by no means useless in all scenarios/builds etc. etc. etc. (such as hybrid or melee archer builds)

Only melee hits activate lifesteal and manasteal. The /4s at the end means about every 4 seconds your lifesteal or mana steal should activate on average. You will gain back the amount of hp or mana of your lifesteal or manasteal with that melee.

Ex. I'm using a super slow attack speed weapon for example. Since it melees once every 2 seconds, my mana/lifesteal should trigger once every 2 melees

 

Ah, thanks for your answer - now i understand it much better :)

But what is if you have more than 100% throns/reflection? I think this is useless, right?

 

ye i think more then 100% is not that usefull
and i have some more info for the lifesteal
if you want to know the chances of the lifesteal triggering, i calculated them for every attack speed
here is my calculation https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/life-steal-mana-steal.217520/#post-2630711

 

50% is the chance it has to deal damage to your attacker
The rates iirc are 150% of the damage to mobs and 50% when hit by a player

Reflection works with spells but thorns works with melee

Melee damage is the basic attack, thus Archer's basic attack which happens to be ranged, still counts as melee

I'm not too sure on this one
But last I checked, life steal has a specific chance to activate, different with every attack speed, and gives you a bit of health
Not sure on the 4 seconds thing, could just be an outdated id format since I've only ever seen it heal instantly

 

Alright, thanks to all for your replies. I hope this will help me to get a little bit better with my stats :)

 

Um actually archers ranged hits can activate life steal, i have tested this a few times and it has always worked.

About mana steal, not so sure.

 

Archer's basic attack has the same properties as any other melee attack.
