In Anno1777 a player can wear/use attack weapons and defensive armour. Each comes in 10 different types .

• - Attack weapons type :dagger,mace,sword,spear,flail,axe,bows and arrows,crossbow,gun and rifle.

• - Defensive armours type :chainmail shirt , elbow guards, shield , leg armour, arm guards , helmet , gauntlets , breastplate,paulders and boots.

• Each weapon/armour comes with 5 different degrees of quality rated with stars, this means with each star, weapons/armours have better durability and will give you more attack/defence points.

•  Example :- 1 star dagger can be used in 10 fights and will give you 100 attack points

•   5 star dagger can be used in 50 fights and will give you 500 attack points.

• Weapons have a Total Attack bonus and armours have a Total Defence bonus .

• Attack Points

• Each weapon you have in your inventory will give you bonus attack points ,depending on their quality  the sum of these points will be your Attack Points.

• Total atack points

• Based on your Attack Points and your Wellness the Total Attack is determined. The formula is TA = AP% W where TA – total attack, AP-attack points, W-wellness.

• Example – if you have 60 % wellness and 3 weapons in your inventory each with 100 attack points, your total attack points will be 300 / 60% meaning your total attack points will be 180.

• Defence Points

• Each armour you have in your inventory will give you bonus defence points ,depending on their quality  the sum of these points will be your Defense Points.

• Total  Defense Points

• Based on your Defence Points and your Wellness the Total Defense is determined. The formula is TD = DP% W where TD – total defence, DP-defence points, W-wellness.

• What good are weapons if you don’t use them in fights, to attack another player go to Fight tab , a list of targets will be displayed choose one and press the attack button , the winner is decided by comparing the attackers total attack points with the defender total defense points.

• Example  – Player X (attacker) has 100 total atack points and player Z (defender) has 99 total defence points result – player X wins the battle, even if defenders points were 100 he would still lose the battle.

•  You can’t have two weapons of the same type in your inventory

• When a weapon finishes it’s life span will dissapear from your inventory.( depending on it’s quality level each weapon/armour cand be used/withstand a certain number of attacks)

• To buy weapons go to goods/weapons and select from the drop down menu the weapon/armour of your choice.
