you need at least 22.5 phlegm left to damage the stone hedge even a tiny bit. It becomes semi-plausible with 30+ phlegm. Your best bet would probably be finding someone with an excess of oatmeal crackers that can spare a couple (if you're on roanoke, i can usually help).

Does it matter if I use a Stone Axe or a Metal Axe? And if so, what is the 22.5 phlegm referring to? The stone axe?

there are no tools that help in destroying buildings.
The only tool for destroying I am aware of, is a shovel when destroying tree stumps

Some buildings have a soak. The value of the soak determines the minimum amount of phlegm needed to do damage said object. In this case, I believe the soak on a stone hedge fence is 15, thus the minimum phlegm needed is 22.5. Fall below that and you quit doing damage. If you're max is under that, you will never do any damage.

Just a quick note, using a shovel will help when destroying your wall. I have not tested to see if metal shovel helps more than wooden one, but either will be better than working with the axe.

what is the 7.5 difference in between? 1% hp of stone hedge ?

no, from thesoak page of the wiki:

Code: Select all

damage = sqrt(phlegm / 10k) * 10

after which soak is subtracted linearly, so to deal any damage at all:

Code: Select all

damage - soak > 0

Code: Select all

sqrt(phlegm/10k) * 10 > soak.

in the case of stone hedges, you can calculate that your phlegm needs to be 22.5k. As is mentioned by loftar before, I think, the server sees our biles a thousand times higher than we do.

This should not be true. A shovel won't help you destroy a wall.

[Ornery]

It won't.
