Will both daggers hit when under the effects of shadow veil?
Is there still a chance to miss?
Thank you

Shadow veil does darkness damage.
It calls self:attackTarget, this is the same function called by a normal weapon attack. That means you hit with both weapons, and you have a chance to miss.
You get a damage multiplier based on talent level, so you do more damage than a normal attack.
Code: Select all
self:attackTarget(act[1], DamageType.DARKNESS, eff.dam) -- Attack *and* use energy
Code: Select all
getDamage = function(self, t) return self:combatTalentmath.sqrt(t, 0.9, 2) end,
Code: Select all
--- Gets weapon damage mult based on talent
function _M:combatTalentWeaponDamage(t, base, max, t2)
if t2 then t2 = t2 / 2 else t2 = 0 end
local diff = max - base
local mult = base + diff * math.sqrt((self:getTalentLevel(t) + t2) / 5)
-- print("[TALENT WEAPON MULT]", self:getTalentLevel(t), base, max, t2, mult)
return mult
end

Thank you - one more question -
Does global speed (aka if I was using essence of speed) have any effect? It would appear not since this does something once each turn...

I'd have to double check (and I'm not in the mood to do that) but I'm pretty sure this effect happens each time the actors energy bar fills up. It basically over rides player control and uses an AI.
In other words, I'm pretty sure the actors speed does matter.

It happens on timeout of the effect, so it depends when this is triggered.
It is not affected by movement speed (the effect from a movement infusion allows you to move several times before it times out). This probably means it is not affected by global speed, but you will be able to take an action before the effect triggers again?

Yeah. Guess I was wrong. If it goes on time out then it's game turn.
