Yeah, I think this is pretty minimal, except possibly with very new skills/spells.

I think we've gotten a lot better about putting this kind of stuff in helpfiles. Beyond that, I think it's pretty even up. Is bashing a good option as a giant warrior? Often. Is it a good option as a felar warrior? Definitely less often, but still sometimes. I don't think even the formulae could give you as accurate of a when as just playing a warrior and seeing what works and doesn't work for you.

I'm pretty sure pure-mortal characters have seen every mob in the Silent Tower. Whether or not they were able to kill those mobs is, in some cases, another story, but it's generally not a story of knowledge but one of general character toughness/resources. Even still, most of it's been out at some point, though not all of it's seen real use. (For example, I've seen an awful lot of characters that don't get the polearm skill with a certain polearm in their inventory, for some reason.)
