Rathena Item Effect Calculations?

[rakuzas]

Hi,

May I know how Rathena calculations works? Like ASPD, Items Effect and so on.. Because many of my player keep complaining that my server item effect not same as the guide they follow and some calculator.. 

Last time, some user told me that rathena calculate directly and many of items not shows in STAT window.. So I told them that..  Then, they show me hit the same monster.. The damage they inflict is same either they equip the item or not.. So it make me confused.. 

Hope somebody can explain this matter to me.. 

Thank you in advance..

Hi, i have experienced this too, but this happened only with players which usually playing on very old and very bugged eAthena / eAmod emulators 2007-2009 years old. Since that time a lot of things has been changed, a lot of reported bugs in 2005-2011 has been fixed (and not only this bugs), right now emulators works clother to official as never before, and it make players confused because they usually were played in another game based on very old emulator, and never knew how Ragnarok Online is for real. I want to say: it's ok if they are feeling differences where they usually playing if compare to your (i hope you have up to date) emulator. But in 80% cases usually problem has been solved for those guys by irowiki and other sources. Rest 20% of reports which me were received from them already tested by me / them and we both were trying to find sources where this behavior comes from, and how it should be for sure, and in this 20% usually we found 20% bugs in emulator, rest 80% of 20% confused things we solving by ourself via sources in internet (but to be clear a lot of good websites are down / not working anymore / or provide incorrect information (like Ratemyserver)). As i know RMS based on *athena (rA or herc or both of them) files / core, and some guides taken from rA sources / irowiki, etc. And i were shocked, when were played on some official server with modern episode, and i found really mega many differences between what RMS saying, and how for real it work (for example item descriptions / bonuses / mob descriptions). So if summarize, only in less 5% of such reports (based on my own experience) players really reporting about the bugs in rAthena emulator, in other 80% cases it's information which very easy to find by theyself somewhere in irowiki board, rest 15% it's hard to find info, but this info still exist.

That's make me a bit confused.. I'm using latest rathena from git.. Using 2015 client.. Before this I run 2013 rathena.. Then in 2016 I re-open my server.. Then, I updated with latest rathena and combind with my 2013 rathena but it have so many bug or not supported.. So just a weeks ago, I fully using latest rathena and many bug solved.. But just this item effect somehow make me confused.. When I checked, all the items are have their script.. But sometimes it shows in stat windows.. And if not, I'm guessing rathena calculate it directly without showing in stat window.. But last time I checked with my player.. Some item dont even calculate the effect.. It have same exact damages when equip that item or not.. So.. This is just me or common issue? Or something else?

I already disable Renewal ASPD.. So my server ASPD now working back like pre-renewal.. Just this item effect have some problem..
