that's because, for instance, LEMUR's aim accuracy of "282" is dumbed down number for a more complicated expression, and the differences in aim accuracy only make any real difference when AC's are in high speed flight.
alright, so if anyone ever went to ACO, thy'd know i was doing a bit of an edit on LR, but do to unexpected circumstances i shall not explain at this time, i'm scrapping that venture...for now.
i want to better invest my energies into creating my own game with HGE. i was always a fan of old school RPG, and thats what i plan on making. but before i start, i will tell you all about a few little known things about LR's damge sysytem.
first of all, i was argued with by a senior user at ACO (you know, the kinda guy everybody knows by name, maybe because they were in LR match vids and they swear they know everything...) who tried to convince me that damage/defense was linear, and in fact it is not, even by the biggest stretch. i have to let everyone know this energy weapons represent the standard for damage. with a given defense score (0-1599 is E, 1600-1699 is D, 1700-1799 is C, 1800-1899 is B, 1900-1999 is A, and 2000 and above is S), higher ATK score does a smaller percent damage. for instance, a 300 ATK weapon might do say 35% ATK as damage, while a 4000 ATK weapon will do 33% ATK as damage (these are just examples. they aren't exact*). all En weapons do stable, consistent damage. shell weapons on the other hand, have set damage variations based on what ammo type they are (rifles' variation is different from that of the grenades). so to put it plainly, shell weapons have positive and negative deviations on their damage (for instance, a rifle round might have a variation of -1.001, +1.401 on its percent ATK as damage). the only thing i can say firmly is the guys at FROM liked rifles....and they sure came to hate MG's!
* the reason is that due to the system in place for damage calculation which tries to eliminate the possibility of a weapon doing 0 dmg, lower ATK weapons don't get hedged as precisely as higher ATK weapons
