Description:
On level 3 I killed a rockpile using only 2 throwing stars. This either means that rock piles are way too soft, or thrown object damage is way too high.

Re: Thrown objects do too much damage, v0.09
Clubs still do too much damage
3 - 4 clubs have killed a rock monster.
It's hard to compare to DM as it's damage model wasn't as realistic - any object would do the same rough amount of damage, modified by armour (and possibly in a tiny way by dex too)
For example, throwing large or small objects at back characters (level 10 teleporters at the start of level) with no armour could get as much as 20, usually 15 damage, throwing at front armoured characters (i created a telporter infront that threw it back at them) raised 5 - 10 damage, again not dependant on object.

Was unable to (permenantly) kill off ian_scho (Haynuus), Ameena, oh_brother (Westian), money (Falkor), raixel (Petal) and Lord_Bones (Aurek) in the DM D&D game Time's Champions!

Re: Thrown objects do too much damage, v0.09
Well, a few other examples:
1) Killed a worm with 2 arrows
2) Killed a screamer with one club
3) Killed a trolin with two clubs
4) Killed a mummy with two clubs
Clearly the damage inflicted is way too high.

thrown objects blahblah
Well, no wonder I could kill a perfectly healthy beholder with a single slayer-arrow...
