Forum:What defines a hitpoint?
I'm wondering what truly defines a hitpoint on this wiki. Basically, some of the articles say that they have a certain amount of hitpoints because that's how many eggs it takes to defeat them. Others say that they have a certain amount of hitpoints because that's how many forward rolls it takes to defeat them. I think that eggs deal half the damage forward rolls do; so my question is this: do eggs deal 1 damage and forward rolls deal 2, or do eggs deal 1/2 damage and forward rolls deal 1?

- Honestly, I have no clue. Eggs do deal much less damage than Forward Rolls, so if they're the weakest form of damage, then that deals one hitpoint of damage. I don't think there would be "half" damage, and I think it's safe to assume that the enemies use close to the same HP system as Banjo. droginator1 08:14, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
That really is kind of a problem. Forward rolls are the most standard type of attack, so if we put the amount of eggs it takes to defeat them, some people might get confused. However, it isn't totally correct to put the amount of forward rolls it takes to defeat them. What should we do? Xykeb Yvolix Zraliv 18:40, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
- ...Great. This is confusing. What can we do? We have no clue which is which. If we were to base it on Eggs, while many base it on Forward Rolls, then that wouldn't be good. But Eggs are more exact. I really have no idea what we should do. What have we been basing it off of? Hasn't Toomai been covering the HP parts of enemy pages? droginator1 21:08, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
