[edit] Damage penalty

What is and is not affected by the damage penalty? -- Gordon Ecker 05:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

looks self explanatory. damage you deal is reduced. so things that you do directly. but indirect like silver armor or splinter weapon would be unaffected BuG 00:31, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Like every other effect that modifies your attack damage by +/- a percentage, this affects only your weapon's base damage. I've tested and confirmed this on the Isle of the Nameless using a Candy Cane Axe and Cyclone Axe, with 12 Axe Mastery, 0 in every other attribute. Without the insignia, my normal attacks deal 10 damage and crits deal 14. With Cyclone Axe, I deal 20 and 24, respectively. With the insignia, normal attacks deal 9 damage and crits deal 13, modified by Cyclone Axe to 19 and 23. --Belker 15:00, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] In-game image

I have 2 Lieutenant's insignias, and one has the regular icon presented here, and the other has the Knight's insignia icon. Strange.... -- Lord Ehzed 17:16, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Hex duration

Will 5 lieutenant's insignias decrease the hex duration to 0%, or will it reduce it to (0.8^5)*100% = 32%?

(Non-stacking) --TalkRiddle 06:29, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

non stacking means you can't use more than one, it'll still be 20% you'd just have -20 armor globally for no apparent reason.

[edit] Complete waste of time?

Does anyone even use this? Giving yourself caster armour and reducing the damage of your attacks, all for 20% reduced hex times seems pathetic to me. Astralphoenix777 02:51, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Not a total waste of time. The -20 only is for one piece of armor and you still have the +20 to melee. And 20% less hex time can be a big deal especially with some hexes. The damage is a bit bad but Im sure some people use it 70.131.34.165 04:45, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
