tavern dummies vs towers

[Borch TrzyKawki]

so i have a buffed harpoon which has nice rate of fire 0.10 second and deal 93k a hit that should give me 930k dps right? but thats not what the dummie say, in dummie opinion its 600k or something. well then do dummie lie or the fire rate isnt 0.10 regardles of tower description?

i have seen similar things but i have also concluded it halfs the dps. On my barb i have two swords with exactly the same damage (glacier demsise) and when i hawk i see that my dps is equal to the damage of one of my swords. So unless tower scaling is differnet i would assume that its is showing half of your dps

[Frankenstein]

you could be affected by "rollover". Meaning if your damage is too high, it rolls over into negatives.

[MOSHHOPPER]

the tavern dummy bounces up and down when hit so some of your shots maybe missing when it is all the way down

[TheCurmudgeons]

silly question but: did you stay as countess/squire after buffing or switch to a different character - this will lower your defence rate.

[Softspokenman]

doesn't lower the rate but it does remove the 30% damage bonus if builder is switched

[Borch TrzyKawki]

i was compering stats in descritpion while looking also on dummie dps, and when you switch hero, tower dmg in descrition also gets lowered. so i dont even remeber if i was on squire still i was talking about actuall dmg per hit showed in tower description and on dummie each hit. about roll over its not the dmg. it could be fire rate however far as i remember it was also happening while i was much less powerful. but yeah im gonna try with very low levels

[Borch TrzyKawki]

low level magic missle: 479dmg a hit 0.47rate expectations over 958dmg a second. dummie says its 718 a second. well i quess that those dummies are just very inacurate

[tau_xv88]

have you calculated the time it takes for the shot to hit the target?? because no tower shots are instant.

What MOSHHOPPER said.

For Hawk: You only deal damage for a very short time. The dummy calcs it down to damage per second.

[Borch TrzyKawki]

i said nothing about hawk. also fire rate must be exact time between shoots becuse when it goes really high the animation is no longer showed rather than slowing rate it self

[Arcalyn]

This poses another question I believe. Do the varying monsters have "armor" or a similar damage reduction? Or do they just compensate with health?

[pew pew pew]

Not you but another guy here.

However, does it matter how much damage do you deal to a dummy? It does only matter if you want to mess with others, and this case you are still a young guy :)

Nobody cares about your dps as long as you hit some minimal stats.

[Borch TrzyKawki]

it does matter becuse it always dispalys the same dmg on hit, however the fire rate displayed seems to be wrong! becuse of the lowered dps
