Combat Mechanics
Hi, does anyone know how to take a look at the combat log/is there even a combat log in this game? I'm interested in exploring the combat mechanics of hit/crit/fumble confirmation. I'm aware that a console mode exists but it does not seem to record any combat data in it. Please send me a message if you have an idea of how to access the combat log for the game. Thanks.

P.S.: To those interested in what I'm exploring, my hypothesis is that crit confirmation is done in a similar way in D&D i.e. if you roll a crit (but haven't confirmed it), it is a guaranteed hit. Confirming the crit roll makes it a crit (with applied crit modifiers) and failing to confirm makes it a regular hit (no crit modifiers). The implications of this is that with higher crit chance reduces fumble chance in practice since more crit rolls (unconfirmed) imply a greater number of hits which are "unfumbleable". I am aware that such data can be obtained through empirical testing, but I would much prefer to have access to the combat log to confirm my findings.

I am not sure if there is a way to check this information. It also might be a good idea to post this question to the Runic - Torchlight 2 forums: http://forums.runicgames.com/viewforum.php?f=29

I would love to but I'm IP blocked from Runic forums for some reason. Probably has to do with the way my ISP assigns IP addresses :(

there is no such thing, IIRC. I'm pretty sure this question was already asked there. I think they also don't plan to have such an option available.

Damn, guess empirical data it is :( Anyone interested in theory crafting want to help out? :D
