Give me your last remaining gold, and I will buy Apercu for you.
 
But everytime you win with him, I get 5 gold out of the winnings.
 
I will also let you use my Claymore in those matches.


The arena is no place for mercy.

Your choice may come back to haunt you! 

But that's a hell of an investment!  Shocked Big smile

That's my oversight.  Amygdala is most certainly a goner.

Edit: In Pinnacle matches I get 7 of the winnings. Also if you accept, these propositions last until I decide they stop.

I don't care to comment on matches, but he would have been OK if it weren't for that last percentage roll.  It was 07%.  I honestly feel bad, but I force myself to be honest.

Match 16

Olias (Short Sword) vs Incomudro (Claymore) - 7:1 (The Pinnacle)

-1/10

18/9 = 2 damage to Olias (4)

13/4 = 3 damage to Incomudro (6)

18/17 = 5 damage to Olias (-1).

And with that last blow, Incomudro kicked Olias off the towering arena of The Pinnacle, and behold, Olias plummeted to his death.

Maybe, maybe not.  Remember that they are on The Pinnacle.  One hit has a 20% chance of sending someone to their doom.

I still don't quite get the betting thing - If I were to bet 4 gold on David with 1:1 odds, if he won how much would I get back? 4 gold?


Yes, 1:1 is a return that matches your bet.  If you want to calculate bets go here:

http://www.betting-directory.com/bet-calculator.php

Note that the return box includes your original wager (subtract your original wager to determine the winnings).  For the purposes of this game, round up or down since I only use whole numbers.

A word about helmets:

When I say "negate" a critical hit, I mean that ordinarily if someone rolls a natural 20, then he gets double the damage for that hit.  But if the recipient of that hit is wearing a helmet, he has a chance to make that regular damage instead of double.  It doesn't eliminate the blow fully- it just makes it normal damage.

Also, I meant for the helmet's success rate to be 40%, not 50%. Embarrassed

Ian, in light of this, if you want a refund, I will buy the helmet back from you for full price as long as it is unused (tag still on it, no stains, esp. blood etc.)

Sorry for any confusion.

I understood its usage but this reduction to 40% does bother me. Not sure what I want to do. How about a price reduction?

I'll think about it. If  I  haven't  said anything by the time of my fight  you can presume I  am keeping it.


Critical hits are so rare, that I wanted the the helmet to be slightly less than 50%, but wound up typing 50% anyway.  I meant it to be 7 gold, 40%.  But correcting my mistake now was not fair to you, so I wanted to give you the option to get your money back if you wished.

I will say this though- toward the end of a match, a critical hit often means the difference between a dead warrior and one who lives to fight another day.
