Anatomy is a versatile skill in Ultima Online that enhances both combat effectiveness and healing capabilities. It also provides insights into the physical attributes of creatures and players.

Anatomy serves multiple purposes:

• Combat Enhancement: Increases the damage dealt in melee combat. For every 10.0 points in Anatomy, you gain a 2% damage bonus, up to a maximum of 20% at 100.0 skill.

• Healing Synergy: Works in conjunction with the Healing skill to improve the amount healed and enables curing poison and resurrecting players.

• Stat Assessment: Allows you to evaluate the Strength and Dexterity of creatures and players, providing descriptive feedback based on their stats.

• Defensive Substitute: When combined with Evaluating Intelligence, Anatomy can serve as a substitute for Wrestling in defense. The formula is:

((Anatomy + Evaluating Intelligence + 20) / 2), capped at 120.

By combining Anatomy with Evaluating Intelligence, you can achieve a defensive skill equivalent to Wrestling. This is particularly useful for mages or characters who prefer not to invest in Wrestling.

*Formula*: ((Anatomy + Evaluating Intelligence + 20) / 2), capped at 120.

For example, with 100.0 in both Anatomy and Evaluating Intelligence: ((100 + 100 + 20) / 2) = 110 defensive skill.
