Combat Silat

Live · v0.35

Click a creature to fight it. Blows land every four ticks; what you train depends on the focus you pick in the Gear tab.

Training focus

In the Gear tab you choose what your blows train. The choice changes the XP, not the blow.

Your blows

Next to a creature you strike every 4 ticks (2.4 s).

accuracy = clamp( 50% + 3% × (Attack − its armour) + 1% × weapon bonus, 20% … 92% ) max hit = 1 + floor( Strength / 4 ) + weapon bonus damage = a whole number from 1 to max hit, on a hit XP = 4 × damage to your focus skill, plus round(1.33 × damage) Body (at least 1) kill = the creature's XP to your focus skill

Their bites

Creatures don't start fights; they fight back. Once you hit one, it comes for you and bites every 4 ticks while it is next to you.

their chance to hit you = clamp( 60% − 2% × (Defence − 1) − 4% × armour, 15% … 70% ) their damage = 1 to their max hit a dodge = 2 Defence XP

Armour is everything you wear added up, plus one from Abang Zul's lesson. The Gear tab shows your armour and your dodge chance. Gear lists what gives armour.

The chase

A creature you have provoked follows you, but only so far from its home spot: its leash (crab 9, monitor lizard 10, macaque 12 tiles). Run past it and the creature gives up, walks home, and heals on the way. Leave the zone and it is home when you come back. Get knocked out and every creature after you gives up.

The training post

Guru's straw post near the spawn on Perhentian never hits back. A strike every 4 ticks, 85% of them land for 1 to your max hit, and each point is worth 2 XP to your focus. Ten strikes are part of Castaway's Training.

Sparring with Abang Zul

Click Abang Zul once his lesson has started to spar. Every 4 ticks he swings his rattan at you:

dodge chance = clamp( 40% + 3% × (Defence − 1) + 3% × armour, 30% … 90% ) a dodge = 6 Defence XP a hit = 2 Defence XP, and no damage

Dodge eight and his lesson gives you +1 armour for good. Sparring is the safest Defence training in the game.
