Should i balance my attributes too??
No. Dodge skill is always in effect, regardless of where you aim and he dodges. But if the attacker shoots exactly where defender dodges, then the dodge skill is doubled. If I dodge my head, then I get double my dodge skill if you aim for my head. If the attacker shoots where he is not dodging, then 'dodge' skill is still used, its just not doubled.You can still get hit with 1000 dodge to my 1 aim if you dodge the wrong way can't you?

Example: Say you had 40 aim and shot at my left hand. I have 30 dodge. Pretend your 'appearance' equals my 'tactics', so no negative modifier to either of our 'aim' skills.
Your attack value = 45
If I don't dodge my left hand, my defense value = 35
If I do dodge my left hand, my defense value = 65
Firstly, although info can indeed be gained from the 'help' section, he had it wrong, and you didn't correct him or point him to the correct info in the 'help' section. So I did.firstly ratio is not 1 to 1 so your calculations are useless. and other general info can be easily gained from help.
The defense skill is decided by your dodging skill
Additionally each player receives a bonus of 5 to it's defense value.
No mention of ratios at all in determining attack/defense values! So unless you have some official reason for suggesting ratios are involved in converting skill points to attack/defense values, I suggest you stick to what is written.The attack value is decided by your aiming skill... Each player received a bonus of five to it's attack value.
If you dodge with the body part that the attacker was aiming at, your dodging skill gets doubled.
That's a loaded question since 'strength' is an attribute in the game, and naturally, melee fighters are going to probably invest more attribute points in the 'strength' attribute.What do you think is stronger close or range dueler??
You don't have to have very high aim. You'll still do fine even if your shooting is 20-30 points ahead of aim. Just invest the rest of the points more to appearance and other skills like dodge a bit of reflex and toughness, its not good that you have equal points on each of these.Okay, keep my attributes to Dexterity..
Shoot ahead by 10 to Aim..
Upgrade 2 skills every 10 lvl..
Every dueling skills is balance(less than/equal 10 to aim).
Is this good enough??
Having lots of shooting and aim is useless when you don't have any appearance so add few points to appearance every few levels. You'll need a lot of appearance especially when you are dueling soldiers because of their tactics. Tactics is like a secondary dodge mechanism that comes into play when you are the defender. Its the challenger's appearance versus the defender's tactics. Don't forget to put points to dodge, reflex and toughness as well.I will only focus on 1 attribute..
And i will distribute my points on my skills..
Can you answer my question on post #45...
Its alright ima go for soldier... not dueler..Having lots of shooting and aim is useless when you don't have any appearance so add few points to appearance every few levels. You'll need a lot of appearance especially when you are dueling soldiers because of their tactics. Tactics is like a secondary dodge mechanism that comes into play when you are the defender.

Not necessarily. There are some other factors involved.Having lots of shooting and aim is useless when you don't have any appearance so add few points to appearance every few levels. You'll need a lot of appearance especially when you are dueling soldiers because of their tactics. Tactics is like a secondary dodge mechanism that comes into play when you are the defender.
It's perfectly fine to focus on offensive skills if that's what you want. A small amount of dodge can go a long way, and is a worthy investment even for an offensive fighter.I'm gonna be a soldier so should i upgrade my appearance or tactics..??
I am active a lot and new to the world..
Is it okay to just focused on my offense skills??
If I were going very offensive, I'd put points into dodge before I upgraded tactics. Especially if you plan to protect yourself a lot by sleeping in hotels. I'd be more inclined to get my tactics points from items that gave me some tactics as a bonus. Example: brown boots are great for duelers.Should i still upgrade tactics though??
