*noob question* what does hit% do?

[phongi]

what does hit% do?
yes...it's a noob question...

[Marshank]

I believe it has to do with either critical hits or accuracy or extra attack or all three or something like that. Sorry I dunno either ^.^

[Zuenza]

Let's say you have a vulcan with 30 hit%.Your accuracy will be increased by that of the vulcan,and an extra 30 from hit%.

[PJ]

Hit% is directly related to ATA

Hit% (The percent part is misleading though) raises the Attack accuracy of your weapon by the amount of Hit% you have.

People will swear by Hit%, but it's really only a nice thing to find occasionally.

EDIT: Beat to the punch!

Each % on it adds an extra point of ATA unlike mags which you need 2 levels for 1 ATA point
1% = 1 point to ATA
50% = 50 points to ATA

My ass it's nice "only occasionally."

It won't make a crappy weapon worthwhile to use but hit% on even marginally good weapons (say... the Justy or on Vulcans) will make them very useful.

[PJ]

Hit% is useful on mechs, where there base ATA is so low

Otherwise, yeah nice, only occasionally.

[Saiffy]

All the weapons in the game have enough base ATA to begin with, if you can't use them good, you suck at life.

Hit is just a nice bonus, nothing more.

ok, lets say you have 150 base ATA. The weapon had 100%hit, unlikely, but would your ATA be 300 (doubled by 100%) or 250 (1 ATA per %)?

1 ATA per percent.

[BeeYee]

o ok, that helps

I have a no hit Storm wand and a 10% hit storm wand and the 10% one says 10 more accuracy. Yo Noob!
