An inebriated woman's head butt misses you. You are knocked unconscious by the force of an inebriated woman's blow! Everything goes black. Umm.. WTF? |

2 checks. 1st check, dmg dealt from headbutt. And it didn't deal any damage at all. 2nd check, check for critical roll in headbutt that stuns. You were unlucky there. It's a typo, it has been reported in the past. |

Right, what happened is your headbutt knocked you out, instead of knocking out your opponet. It's a feature of the skill. |

The NPC has headbutt, and DA's assessment of it is correct. There are other skills/spells in the game that have this two-step check system, where you can fail to do damage but still get the effect of the skill or spell to happen. |

I assumed it was something along those lines, but it seemed odd that you could miss and still knock someone out. I would think you would have to first land the blow before it making the second check to see if it was a crit and knocking you out. |

The damage output is so low so that would make headbutt even more useless than it is now. IMO it's just a typo, the headbutt damage message should be changed to something else and not that general miss/scratch/hit/disembowel(with a headbutt  )/whatever damage message.

Right alongside "UNSPEAKABLE!" Seems those damned silly messages are here to haunt us and this headbutt is just one of them. |

I do believe Dulrik has ask players and imms to think up better damage messages to replace the obsolete general damage messages of 'miss' 'scratch' 'maim' 'maul' and so on. |

He has. We've never gotten, so far as I know, complete sets of messages, which is what we need. |

Your world lights up in pain and then spins into blackness You hear bones break in xxxx's face as he collapses into unconsciousness The force of your headbutt drives your opponent into unconsciousness you see -STARS- and then blackness XXXX stoves in YYYY's face with his forehead, yyyy drops immediatly Your forehead smartly cracks XXXX's nose resulting in a river of blood. Your face EXPLODES with pain as YYYY breaks it with his hard head. You hear a dull crunch as YYYY headbutts XXXX You drive your forehead at your opponent but he ducks...you feel silly Your attempt at a forehead offensive fails Your attempted facecheck misses. You miss your headbutt. YYYY attempts to headbutt you, but you manage to avoid it. YYYY drives his face at yours, you avoid a painful forehead kiss. you duck beneath your enemy's attempted headbutt. You evade the driving force of your enemy's forehead. YYYY barely misses headbutting XXXX, boy is XXXX lucky YYYY drives his skull at XXXX's face, but is avoided. XXXX skillfully sidesteps YYYY's headbutt XXXX saves his face from the pain of YYYY's vicsious headbutt. forgot death messages The force of your headbutt snaps XXXX's neck. You drive XXXX's nosebone into his brain with your forehead. XXXX face caves in with a shower of blood. XXXX head whips back with a loud snap from his neck. XXXX falls lifeless to the ground, guess you broke something he needed. Teeth and blood fly from XXX's now lifeless head! The last thing to enter your mind was YYYY's head. You recede into death as your skull recedes into your brain. YYYY's driving forehead drives the life right out of you. Your skull crushes like a sprite under a giant's foot. YYYY crack's XXXX's head wide open with a headbutt. Yummy brains. XXXX's body collapses like his skull from the terrific force of YYY's headbutt. YYY splits xxx's head like a lumberjack splits wood. YYY visciously hammers xxxx skull to pieces with his forehead. A tooth catches you in the face as XXX's head is destroyed by YYY's headbutt You hear YYY's neck crack under the force of a ferocious headbutt. And finally knock yourself out messages XXX's head proves harder than your own, you faint from the pain. Stars fill your vision as you realize that wasn't XXX's head you heard cracking. You slump to the ground, your own head split by your ineptitude. YYYY falls to the ground in a coma, you didn't know your own strength! YYY's head bounces off yours and he collapses. Your momma always said you were hardheaded. YYY cracks his cranium on the obvioulsy supperior skull, yours that is. YYY drives his nose into your forehead and falls in a heep...what a fool. YYY drives himself into unconsciousness on XXX's forehead. In an outstanding display of ineptitude, YYY knocks himself out. YYY trips and falls face-first into XXXX's head, oh the irony. YYY is knocked out. |
