Blocking system for KOTOR3

[lukeiamyourdad]

What would be the point of that? Like you said, in ranged, you could still deflect back the shots, eventually defeating your enemy.

In melee, you can't do that unless some sort of riposte feat was created.

[Vaelastraz]

Doing parries by pressing a button? No not even Jedi knight makes use of that.

 

Btw, as far as i know, unlike other games there is no damage reduction in Kotor, except via items. It is all your defense stat which determines if you block/evade the attack or not.

My question is how do you get the percentage or whatever so that youre character can block an attack...

[Hallucination]

There is no percentage. What happens is the attacking person makes a die roll of 1-20 plus their attack modifier, and the attacked person makes a roll of 1-20 plus their defense modifier. If the attacker has a higher number than the defender they hit, and if the defender has the higher number it's a miss.

so basically you need to have high defense to be able to block

[Soogz]

I like the system they have now. All you need is a high defense and you will block. I mean lets get logical, if some guy is lighting you up with a blaster, you obviously aren't going to block all of them... and I will let you take it from there.

This is NOT a reflex game. 'Nuff said.

[Prime]

so basically you need to have high defense to be able to block

That is exactly right.

[Fiestainabox]
