Talk:Snowy Owl

From A KoL Wiki

The damage dealt seems to range from about X-X+4, where X is how much the owl weighs. (This was observed within the 12-20 pound range) Also, the owl attacks every round.--Starwed 17:10, 27 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

I need some clarification on your range. Are you saying x to x+4, or is it a formula that you've typoed? (x-x+4 is either 4 or -4 for all x depending on how the parens are) Stubblyhead 15:42, 31 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

Yeah... is it x minus x plus 4, or is it x to x-plus-4--Fly boy42 16:21, 31 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

  • Obviously it'd be between X and X + 4. Otherwise the damage would always be four if you followed that logic

Just noticed at like 8:10 that the Pet Rock, Teddy Bear, and this had haikus. Updated appropirately.--Hogulus 19:16, 3 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)
