UBAB APR

Post by Kalos » Wed Jul 14, 2021 12:36 am

- "UBAB Removal"
All UBAB weapons except Kamas no longer scale with UBAB APR. Their stats are also improved and noted in the overall weapon changes below.
Note: Kama remains a UBAB weapon due to it being hardcoded, but we have put in future Beamdog update changes that will decouple Kama from monk UBAB as Soon™ as NWN:EE is updated to a newer version. Build into Kama Monk at your own risk.
Ok. So this may be a total NEWB question but what does this mean? What is UBAB APR?

Unarmed Base Attack Bonus Attacks Per Round

Monks fighting unarmed or with certain weapons get an extra attack for every 3 Base Attack Bonus, whereas all other classes get one every 5.

Because of this, an unarmed pure Monk can achieve 5 attacks per round, while others can only achieve 4. (not counting haste, dual wield, multiclassed monks, etc...)

This change removes those extra attacks from all weapons other than kama and fists.
