          Your mother was an Ogre, but it is unacknowledged.  You are
          the adopted child of a Serf.  You are the black sheep of
          the family.  You have brown eyes, straight brown hair, and
          a very dark complexion.

          ...Now, you are in Town.

[XP 22][Depth 21]

Here's my current iteration of random-character, no-sell, vanilla town idiocy. I got lucky with Farmer Maggot and Lion Heart dropping an Armor of Resistance and a Pattern Lance at depth 5 (I made them native to that level because I rarely visit town). I've been choosing all DEX boosts so far, in the hopes of getting a second blow with the Lance, but no luck. My money comes from a Quartz Vein farm at depth 18, but then I almost died trying to clear the rest of the level. Eventually I gave up and got away at 5hp with no more healing or teleport. This dump is after hitting the town to restock.

Well, according to the Hengband spoilers you should be getting a second blow. I actually had to look at this with the debugger, but it turns out that your weapon is too heavy at the moment for you to get the +1 str_index bonus for two handed wielding. So, start picking strength for your stat boosts :D

Or 18/60 dex will do it, so perhaps that is quicker ...

Hm. I guess what you're saying is that two-handed wielding generally works better than one-handed wielding because two-handed gives a virtual strength boost, but that you only get that strength boost if a certain strength threshold, dependent on weapon weight, is already met?

Is that strength threshold the same as the one that allows me to wield one-handed without "having trouble wielding such a heavy weapon"? The only way this makes sense to me is if that's the case. (I am "having touble" at the moment when I try to wield one-handed.)

In other words, my current guess/interpretation is that when two-handed wielding is the only thing allowing me to wield comfortably at all, the virtual strength bonus is withheld. Right?

I think so ... The code is written with Japanese variable names but the best I can figure is:
[1] Strength determines a capacity.
[2] If you are using 2 hands, double that capacity.
[3] If that capacity is less than 1/10th the weapon weight, "You have trouble wielding your weapon". Minuses to to hit and damage based on how much you exceed your capacity.
[4] If that capacity is less than 1/5th your weapon weight, you lose the two handed bonus. So, the fact that [2] doubled your capacity, the factor of 5 here seems to agree with your intuition.

Ah, thanks!
If you don't mind my pestering, what exactly is the two-handed bonus? +1 virtual strength? Maybe next time I should boost STR until I can at least pick up my weapon off the floor 1-handed :)

On 5.7.2011 02:25 chris wrote:
Two handed gives:
[1] Better plusses to hit and damage. These vary with class.
[2] A better shot at multiple blows. There is a table lookup involved, so its not the same as +1 strength. Often, it is way more useful than that. The +1 just says look at the next row in the table then you otherwise would.

My advice: Don't wield 30lb weapons :D

Aha! Thanks for the info. This is all very interesting.

As for your advice, sometimes a 30lb weapon is your only source of Free Action and See Invisible! Anyway, my girlfriend was scumming around at level 3 and coaxed Smeagol into giving up a +2 sword of westernesse (3 blows!) so I'm good for now. I wonder why all my good gear was found at single-digit depths... :)
