(I play Silkroad R)

1, Active skills often show damage followed by a (%) with a percentage,
Magic Damage 92-110 (250%)
for example.

What does this percentage mean?


2, I'm playing on several accounts, one of them a lvl 44 full STR bower, and I'm curious about INT bowers. I have a spear nuker so I'm not interested in the nukes particulary, but is INT bowers any good?

3, What good does FW really do? I went there on my lvl 47 onehanded EU tank my first time (grade 1 35-50 obv) and was tanking dat shiet until the boss danced around his stick and hit 7k.
Do you just do FW for experience reward from the boss? I also noticed some qeusts that you do in FW but none of the rewards seem appealing enough. (Except the one with like free SoSun D8 weapon, but that's off my charts atm lol)

4, I had another question but I just can't remember it, I'll come back update when I think of it

I believe it has something to do with the damage on your weapon. It acts as a multiplier with your weapons mag/phy dmg. That's why you will nuke harder with a spear than that you would with a sword (when everything else is equal ofcourse).

Int bow can be decent, but you will need very good gear since you don't have the def of a shield or the extra hp a spear nuker has.

People do FW alot for talismans. With these you can get a SoX weapon reward which you can then use or sell. Exp is also fairly decent too. I advice you to just go untill the final ship when you run a FW by yourself. Even if you can tank the final boss it's not worth the time.

4, What does Parry really mean? I've heard so many different opinions of what it actually is
Parry determines in some way for how much you will be hit. There's a formula for it calculating the players/mobs offense and your defense and all that. Two numbers will come from that and between those will a player/mob hit on you (min and max damage). Now the higher parry you have, the more often he will hit towards his min damage, aka doing alot less damage over time.

Well just level up a bit more and do the 51-60 run.

Do you have to be close to him for that nuke to hit because ive never had any really big damage off him.
