Attack time

[Palem]

Alright I'm playing an Elf/Warrior on WoL. Assuming I cast QF before every attack, how many racks would I need to get my attack time below 8 hours in war assuming I'm hitting targets in my nw range.

I would calculate it out myself, but I'm not sure how

[Palem]

Does anyone know the formula for attack times at least?

Its all on there :)

You'll only need QF to get under 12 hours in war, Rax if you want to reach 8 hours using warrior.

If you cant log in to do 3 attacks a day you might be better off with another personality?

So if I run 6% rax I can have attack times under 8 hours? That doesn't seem right. I was running 10% rax earlier this age and I had ~9 hour attack times

12.24*.8*.9*.9=7.93 hours

I realize that BE would bring down the rax bonus, but I've always got my BE above 70%, so that wouldn't affect it enough to push it back to 9 hours. Anyone know what I'm missing? (calculating for war time)

16 *.85 *.8 * .9 = 9.8 hours base in war
10% rax @ 80% BE gives -10.8% attack time, which is enough

Hitting NW sizes out of your range will add some time too, but 10% should be fine if your on chaining targets and such (as opposed to taking/keeping down equal->lower provs)

Considering there are KDs running with 8hr attack times as a KD wide strat, im pretty sure its possible to reach 8 with Trad March ;)

[Palem]

6 hours is the lowest it goes, not 7

[clarey]

.: 16*.85*.8*.9*(1-0.375) :. 6.12

16h base time
-15% for war
-20% for warrior perso
-10% for QF
37.5% max barracks effect

So for hitting someone of similar nw to you, 6.12h is the lowest army out time you can receive

its not 6 on -2 attacks (learn/massacre)
its (16-2) then the modifiers are applied to that

SoShaan, what race/personality are you?

In my WoL province (Elf/Warrior) I currently have 9.3% barracks. My building effeciency is 101% at the moment (low draft rate).

Intra kingdom attack traditional march is listed at 8.1 hours. Enemy kingdom (we are in war) best attack time is listed at 8.77 hours (smaller province than mine).

So it is definately possible to get less than 8.99 hours.

10% barracks will then probably bring my intra kingdom attack time to 8 hours. To be certain of lower attack times I should have atleast 12% barracks to compensate for buildings in progress and chain targets not close to my networth.

i would say 20% raxes would be good for you to attack faster =)
