Gargoyles HCI race Bonus

Are gargoyles capped at 50 HCI or do they just get a free 5 HCI because of race with a cap of 45? I noticed that without any armor my gargoyle has 5 hci.

Thanks for any replies..

They are capped at 45 hci but the bonus makes it so you only have to have 40 equipped to get capped out.

The 5% bonus doesn't increase the cap. It just raises your HCI % by 5.

Gargoyles used to have the extra 5 hci overcap until it was nerfed.

And now Gargoles arent better VS Archers in PvM & PvP both:
1) Damage penalty at long distance
2) No damage bonus from quiver
3) HCI penalty at short range if you got no 100 dex& skill /99% templates got no penalty

Okay?

You do also have to consider weapon mechanics, range, speed,
one handed, etc

You don't need the quiver to cap damage bonus.

Dex trade off would be to have it over 100?

hes talking about the damage modifier found only on the quivers which goes above the 100 damage increase cap from items. You can just alter a despicable quiver tho to take advantage of the modifier.
Ah, this seems pretty weak since most specials are capped and even at a 10%(?) modifier is pretty minor.

In PvM only 1 pair of weapon to consider - Composit bow VS Soul glave:
Damage penalty produce EXTREMELY big diference.

In PvP
1) AI
Composit bow VS Soul glave in - no differ in 99% because 35 cap.
2)Moving Shot
no direct pair... but if you are 210+ Archer Composit bow are wins too
3) Paralize 4) Dismount- no 100% clear

AND!!!
As i know 10% damge on quiver arent under all of the DI caps (except 35 in PvP) ????

I know gargoyles appear to have an advantage in pvm.

As far as 10%, in a regular shot you're only getting a couple extra points of damage.
