Precision on Ranged Weapons

[PsiSoldier]

I'm hoping someone can confirm how Precision on Ranged weapons works for me.

On the various Bows and Xbows that you can forge they each have a Precision stat on them For example Bow of War is Precision: 0 Visions Foe is Precision: 10 Banefire Xbow is Precision: 15 as a few examples

Is the Precision ammount listed on the weapon itself ADDED to the Precision of the commander firing the weapon. So thus a commander with an Eye of Aiming and a precision of 16 Firing Visions Foe would have a total precision of 26 when adding the 10 precision from the weapon itself, which would actually be 42 as any Precision over 10 is doubled. Am I correct on this or does it work in some different way that I do not see.

Yep, that's how it works. A high-Prec weapon on a high-Prec commander is extra-high Prec.

the thing I've never bothered to look at is if the precision from a bow (for example) stacks with the precision for spell casting.

Obviously commons sense says it shouldn't but...
So a long bow of precison + eye of aiming +GoH = ?

[PsiSoldier]

If that was the case than I'd say forget about the Eye of Aiming and forge some really high precision weapons but like you say I doubt it would. Or it shouldnt at least.

Well, the Attack bonus from one weapon doesn't affect a weapon in the other hand, so I doubt it.

[chrispedersen]

When you add a weapon with an attack skill, it doesn't add to the attack skill.

When you add a precision bonus weapon, it DOES add to the precision skill..

And it says it does.

Like I said.. I haven't tested it. But dominions is often strange.

[PsiSoldier]

Well looking at the commander holding the weapon it does not change his precision stat that you see on the overview in the same way that his Attack or Defense skill is changed by a melee weapon or shield or such.

Yep disregard previous mad rambings.
