Hi, ive found out that perception helps you hit people in combat (corect me if im wrong) and i was wondering if it affects mages and how accurate their spell are?
You're not meant to be able to see behind a tree >_> . Noone is meant to be able to see behind a tree. You can't cast where you can't see, therefore if you DO target people and cast at them behind a tree you are a naughty boy.
Perception helps you to see your targets earlier, so you can aim at them, but if you are using a wand you will always hit your target.
Because no dev actually says how magic targeting really works you could say that a mage does not depend on a direct viewline to throw a fireball, but they target after some kind of aura *shrug*
weeell..ive found out that with 20 in perception you dont have to right click then "examine closely" on other characters to see if they are wounded:) and i probably see ther exact condition of the thing im looking at too.
