Needs new attack messages. Any other changes to accuracy or damage formula?

Thrust-Smack

This is a thrusting smack with your weapon. It will do double the usual amount of weapon damage to your opponent if it connects.

When Used:
Thrust, smack, it's all in the mind. And in the face of your opponent, who just took X damage.
or
You raise your... <weapon> above your head, thrust your hips forward as you draw it back, then smack your opponent for X damage.
or
You thrust toward your opponent and smack him with your... <weapon>, dealing X damage.
or
Your powerful thrust impresses your foe, but it is the ensuing smack that truly dazzles him as it deals X damage.


Notes

  • With Eye of the Stoat, chances to hit are calculated as if your Muscle were boosted by 20 points; otherwise, the chance to hit is the same as with an ordinary attack.
  • The damage bonus is to Weapon Damage only; Bonus Weapon Damage and damage due to high Muscle are not multiplied. That is, it effectively doubles your weapon's power. See Weapon Damage for details.
  • If you are a Seal Clubber and are wielding a 2-handed club, this skill will always hit, regardless of monster defense and your attack bonus.
    • ...but if you have the QWOPped Up effect, this skill will always miss. This overrides always-hit for 2-handed clubs for Seal Clubbers, and Eye of the Stoat as well.

History

  • Before NS13, Eye of the Stoat caused Thrust-Smack to have a 100% chance to hit.
  • Prior to the Seal Clubber skill revamp on September 24, 2013, this skill used to cost 750 Meat and required a melee weapon. If wielding a ranged weapon, you would get the following message:
You can't Thrust-Smack with a ranged weapon. Because, y'know, that's not how ranged weapons work.

References

  • The line "Thrust, smack, it's all in the mind" is a reference to the video game "Um Jammer Lammy" for the Playstation. One of the characters in the game, Chop Chop Master Onion, tells the main character, Lammy, about how he lost his dojo (that also housed a casino), but that it remains in his mind, using the phrase "Dojo, casino, it's all in the mind."
