Carthian Plumbatae: Difference between revisions

A '''Carthian Plumbata''' is a one-handed ranged [[Weapon]]. They have an attack speed of -- seconds and deal {{plink|Infernae|pic=Infernae damage icon|size=18px}} damage. All enemies capable of dropping combat equipment have a chance to drop Carthian Plumbatae, provided that the player has '''NOT''' progressed through the main story to the point where they have chosen a [[Faction]], as after this point only faction equipment can be received. Players are able to receive Carthian Plumbatae in {{Common}}, {{Uncommon}}, {{Rare}}, or {{Epic}} [[Rarity]].

Carthian Plumbata are almost identical to Guard's Plumbata, however they deal {{plink|Infernae|pic=Infernae damage icon|size=18px}} damage instead of {{plink|Tempestae|pic=Tempestae damage icon|size=18px}}.

Carthian Plumbata cannot be received until the quest [[The Lost Shipment]] has been completed, which also awards a level 30 {{Rare}} Carthian Plumbata. After the quest, they can be received from any source that can access the [[Equipment drop table]].

All Carthian Plumbatae attack at a speed of -- seconds, and as one-handed weapons can be wielded alongside a [[Shield]]. They all deal {{plink|Impact|pic=Impact damage icon|size=18px}} damage, with a chance to convert the damage to {{plink|Infernae|pic=Infernae damage icon|size=18px}}. The weapon strength and elemental chance of a Carthian Kanabo obey formulae with slight variation:

:<math>\text{Strength} = L + 15\times R + [0-2] </math>

There is random variation in the stats for a Carthian Plumbata, determined by the terms <math>[0-2]</math> for the strength and <math>[30-49]</math> for the elemental chance. Generally, a weapon with a lower roll on the chance will have a higher roll for the strength.

From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a Carthian Plumbata is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a Carthian Plumbata at level 0 {{Epic}}, at level 15 {{Rare}}, at level 30 {{Uncommon}}, or at level 45 {{Common}} will all have the same minimum combat strength of '''60'''.

The strongest possible Carthian Plumbata is a level 50 {{Epic}} Carthian Plumbata with a maximum damage roll, which has the following stats:

Carthian Plumbatae cannot be received until the quest [[The Lost Shipment]] has been completed, which also awards a level 30 {{Rare}} Carthian Plumbata. After the quest, they can be received from any monster that can access the [[Equipment drop table]].
