psychoden Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Would it be possible to mode the engine to allow sneak attacks with two-handed swords? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramul Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I seem to remember that a message comes up when you successfully sneak attack with a one-handed weapon...think it might state the multiplier. Does the same message show up for a two-handed weapon, saying that you got a 1x multiplier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoden Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Yes... only 1x multiplier. I mean, would it be possible for me to increase the multiplier for two-handed sneak attacks? What variable would it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malonn Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I think sneak attack damaged raises as you raise your sneak skill. The higher the skill the more damage done. I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoden Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Unfortunately, yes, as sneak skill rises, the game engine raises the one-handed weapon sneak attack multiplier-but it does not change the attack power for two-handed weapon sneak attacks.

xenxander Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Which really surprised me when I noticed it. I had a two-handed mallet, playing an amazon type RP character. I wanted her to sneak up behind opponents and pop their heads like a ripe melon with her mallet of doom. but always, even when sneak was up to 100 and blun was up to 80, it always said "sneak attack for x1 damage". first I thought it was a bug, then later while I was reading the manual and official strategy guide (boredome mostely, I know just about everything on side quest and main quests), it stated the increase damage doesn't apply to two-handed weapons.. which totally screwed my RP character to the piont where I just deleted her, even with the nice add-on amazon armor that OOO gave me. there was just no point to it. I'd like to see this revamped in a mod; plus a mod that adds 'blucklers' to the game - small fore-arm based shields that can be worn while using two-handed weapons, with lower AC and HP values for their respective counterparts of the same material of course. (oh but that's another topic - sorry, wasn't trying to hijack the thread). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoden Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 There's gotta be a way to edit this in the OMOD simply... I mean, you simply have to change one value to change the sneak attack multiplier for one handed weapons. Can't we do the same thing for twohanded weapons too? I couldn't find the value though..

Dullahan Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 You guys are talking about a mod, right? It's not possible to get a 'great' sneak attack in with a two-hander. And there is a mod to let you 'pop their heads like a ripe melon'. :P Deadly Reflexes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoden Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 No. Not a mod. I'm saying that You can change a value in the "settings" section of the construction set to increase the sneak attack multiplier (to x10000 or some absurd value) for one-handers, then save it as a mini-mod to merely apply the setting on top of the normal oblivion game. However, I cannot find any setting that would increase the sneak attack multiplier for two handed weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
