Talk:Strangulated

From A KoL Wiki

It's a streach but I think the name of this is a reference to wierd al's "living with a hernia" --gruegirl

  • Nope. That song just had a list of hernias, and this is one of them. --TechSmurf 08:27, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

There's a note about decreasing damage, but I don't think this is true...it generally decreases because if you keep taking 25% of your HP away, that number will almost always go down. But if you heal yourself, I believe the damage goes up (since your HP went up.) Can anyone confirm?--Foggy 14:05, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

Yep, checked it out with some gauze garters. Although, it does seem that the Strangulated damage is figured on the HP you had at the start of the round. Using a healing item doesn't increase the damage from Strangulated on that same round, but it is higher the next round. Also, during some testing, I confirmed that Strangulated is successfully removed by both the VIP hottub and the AoSP skill Shake It Off (if you were to get this effect and free-run from combat for some reason.) --Terion (talk) 15:35, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Just recorded some numbers, and Strangulated's damage is rounding up. Here are a half-dozen data points I took of the HP I had at the start of the round, (a quarter of that value), and the -HP I took from Stangulated that round:

151 (37.75) = -38
95 (23.75) = -24
93 (23.25) = -24
93 (23.25) = -24
69 (17.25) = -18
54 (13.5) = -14
