... what is it?

I see some structures on wiki have soak value and was wandering what that is.

Damages you're doing to the structure = Your base damages - soak value

Soak value is 0 when you're crushing something on you own claim tho.

So do destroy stone hedge you would need to do 100 dmg to do only 10 dmg... and I do only 9 dmg with my stomp

The formula for structure damages is different, and furthermore is based on your current phlegm rather than you current/max yellow humor.
From the wiki it's

Code: Select all

sqrt(currentPhlegm/10)*10

but it can't be right, it's maybe

Code: Select all

sqrt(currentPhlegm)*10

500+ phlegm to hit a plank fence sounds about right ?

The formula is right, but there's implicit multiplier of 1000 - that is starting phlegm is 5000.

Can you please explain?


To the OP: you need about 85 phlegm to start scratching someone else stone hedge

Code: Select all

x * 1000 / 10000 = x / 10

So formula is wrong :p

Destruction can also depend on what tool is used.

IE- for stumps- shovel will do 10% while anything else will do significantly less ~5% of less.

Best for wall? Not sure... but Sword against a solid surface is likely not prime... common sense here... (not that they game has much of that, still )

Ah, well, there's /10000 in it.
Still actual formula does look correct - with about 90 phlegm it took me a while to break the stone hedge's 1000 hit points - I assume I was doing 30 hp per hit, not 90.

Try 5.
