Option for Verbose Combat Log

#1 Post by overgoat »

It would be cool if there was an option when viewing the combat log to see very detailed, verbose option.

Some thoughts of what could be included:
  • All item/weapon procs
  • To hit vs. defense checks
  • Damage vs. armor checks
  • Status Effects vs. saves calculations
Would be neat to check and see how close you came to saving against different effects or to avoiding attacks. Would help decide whether you wanted adding more defense vs. increasing your saves vs. armor etc.

I strongly strongly strongly second this. See this post:

I especially like the idea of the OP of showing saves made and missed.

I would love this.

I say that if it's done, have it be customizable from the start with options. Choose what you do or don't want to see. A char with low saves that uses CDs to break effects might not care about the rolls they failed since they'll (almost) always fail. Stuff like that. Lets you clutter or unclutter your combat log as much as you want.
