Legacy:Combat Actions

Attacks

Attacks are moves that inflict damage on your opponent. Using an attack will fully deplete the attack bar. The attacker must deplete the defense bar of the target before actual damage is inflicted on their HP. The amount of defense depleted is ${\frac {a{\sqrt {w_{A}/w_{B}}}}{2}}$, where $a$ is the amount of offense you have (the red attack bar), $w_{A}$ is the weight of your attack, and $w_{B}$ is the weight of your opponent's maneuver.

After attacking, you will return to using the move you were using before attacking.

Maneuvers

Maneuvers are patterns for responding to an attack. Your selected manuver determines how effective the attacks are on you, and have an effect every time the enemy uses a move.

Most maneuvers use a variable Delta for their effects and weight. This variable is based on the difference between your Unarmed Combat skill and your opponent's Unarmed Combat skill. delta = sqrt(Your UA/Their UA)

The weight of a maneuver is how much defensive weight you have when attacked while using that maneuver.

Notes

It has been found that many of the cooldowns listed with the actions are incorrect. A partial list has been provided on the Haven & Hearth forums by one of the community members in this thread: http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=23357&start=10 (Thanks to Oddity from the HnH forums for providing the partial list.)

Help correcting and/or confirming the times on these would be most helpful. (Please delete these notes after all entries are updated.) Also, if anyone has the exact formula for the effect of combat intensity and/or Agility on the cooldowns, it would be greatly appreciated.
