Introduction

I have no introduction. I do have math though.

Base Damage (Part 1)

Begin by converting your Weapon's Attack into a "True Weapon Attack" using the formula below

True Weapon Attack = ⌊ Displayed Weapon Attack x Archetype Modifier ⌋ x Sense of Kinship

Where "Archetype Modifier" is 0.85 for most archetypes, 0.9 for Prince, and 1.0 for enemies.

also your combined Armor/Gear Defense into a "True Armor Defense" using the formula below

True Armor Defense = (Displayed Armor Defense + Displayed Gear Defense) x Ironclad Bond

If the skill "Sense of Kinship" is equipped on the attacker, apply one of the below multipliers depending on the number of allies in the same lineage as the attacker, including the attacker themselves. Do the same for "Ironclad Bond" on the defender.

Allies in Matching Lineage

Sense of Kinship/Ironclad Bond

1.1

1.2

1.3

1.5

From this point the formula differs depending on if the attacker is a player or an enemy. Note that enemies have equipment just like players do.

Players

Next, True Weapon Attack is turned into "True Attack" by combining it with the skill's power, done as described below.

Condition

True Attack

Basic Attack

True Weapon Attack

Skill

0.9 x True Weapon Attack + 1.3 x Skill Power + Magic Power Factor

"Skill Power" is a constant value tied to the skill used in most cases, however there are 2 exceptions

Skills with "Power proportional to caster's remaining HP." have their power multiplied by the attacker's current HP (before paying the HP cost of the skill), then divided by the attacker's max HP.

Lucky Slash has a unique behavior that produces variance. The below values are what Lucky Slash uses, depending on RNG

Condition

Lucky Slash Power (as multiplier to 180)

Lucky Slash Power (after applying multiplier)

RNG produces 0

0.5

RNG produces 1

1.0

180

RNG produces 2

1.2

216

RNG produces 3
OR
Equipment with "Improves skills with random effects."

2.0

360

Meanwhile "Magic Power Factor" is a value determined proportionally to the user's Magic stat. This is only used for skills that scale off Magic, so Strength-based skills use 0 for that value. These are the values used based on the attacker's Magic stat for magic (use the highest one that corresponds to a magic value lower than the attacker's magic)

Magic Stat

Magic Power Factor

"True Attack" is then turned into the base "Initial Power" by performing the following operation

Initial Power = True Attack - 0.5 x True Armor Defense

Initial Power is set to 10 if it would be a value less than 10.

The next major step is to create a "Stat Multiplier", which is done using the following method

Stat Multiplier = (Offense Correction x Attacker Offense - 0.5 x Defender Endurance) x 0.01 + 1

"Attacker Offense" and "Offense Correction" are dependent on what stat the attack scales off of, using the below values

Attacker Offense

Offense Correction

Strength

1.8

Magic

1.7

"Raw Damage" when the player attacks is calculated as

Raw Damage = Initial Power x Stat Multiplier

Enemies

Next, True Weapon Attack is turned into "True Attack" by combining it with the skill's power, done as described below.

Condition

True Attack

Basic Attack

0.5 x True Weapon Attack

Skill

0.5 x True Weapon Attack + Skill Power

And then turned into the base "Offense Value" by performing the following operation

Offense Value = True Attack x Attacker Offense

"Attacker Offense" is just Strength for basic attacks and physical skills, and Magic for magic skills.

The "Defense Value" used depends on what kind of attack is being used

Condition

Defense Value

Basic Attack

1.35 x Defender Endurance + 0.9 x True Armor Defense

Skill

0.36 x Defender Offense + 0.675 x Defender Endurance + 0.9 x True Armor Defense

"Defender Offense" is just Strength for physical skills, and Magic for magic skills.

"Raw Damage" when an enemy attacks is calculated as

Raw Damage = 2 x √(30 x Offense Value / Defense Value)

Base Damage (Part 2)

Universal

A few more "Correction" values are still needed for this step of damage calculation.

"Weakness Correction" is determined by the target's resistance to the attack. The defaults are

Resistance Level

Weakness Correction

Resist

0.5

Neutral

1.0

Weak

1.5

Weak
Equipment with "Reduces the damage from being hit by your weakness."

1.0

Weak
Equipment with "Significantly reduces the damage from being hit by your weakness."

0.8

Any
Target has Hex
Skill used is Dark

3.0

However "Resist", "Neutral", and "Weak" can be any number of values for enemies, determined arbitrarily on an enemy-by-enemy and affinity-by-affinity basis, though deviations from the defaults are rare.

"Row Correction" is a multiplier specific to whether the attacker is in the front row or back row. Note that enemies are always treated as being in the front row. Row Correction is 1 x the product of all that apply.

Row Condition

Row Correction

Attacker is in the Back Row
Skill is "Melee"

0.5

Defender's entire party is in the Back Row
"Protective Formation" Follower ability unlocked

0.5

Defender is in the Back Row

0.8

Attacker is in the Front Row
Equipment with "While in the front row, increases Attack."

1.2

Defender is in the Back Row
Equipment with "While in the back row, increases Defence."
*

0.5

*Skill is entirely unused.

"Multihit Correction" is a divisor applied to multihit skills that is simply equal to the skill's highest possible hit count. For example, on a 2-4 hit skill "Multihit Correction" would be 4. On an 8 hit skill "Multihit Correction" would be 8.

The attack's base damage is calculated as

Base Damage = ⌊ ⌊ Raw Damage x Weakness Correction x Level Correction x Row Correction ⌋ / Multihit Correction ⌋

For Plunder Life, which drains HP proportionally to damage dealt, set Base Damage to the target's remaining HP if Base Damage would be higher than it.
Base Damage is set to 1 if it would be a value less than 1.

Modifying Damage (Part 1)

Once Base Damage has been obtained from the previous section, there's a series of modifiers to apply to it.

Some game mechanics exist that modify damage dealt, those are listed below

Modifying Damage (Part 2)

The majority of passive skills that modify damage are "Additive" damage boosts. This means that the damage increase is equal to

Additive Multiplier = 1 + (sum of additive damage boosts) / 100

The following damage increases are additive

Beyond just the Additive Multiplier, there's a number of passive skills that apply independent multipliers, grouped together as

Passive Multiplier Product = 1 x (product of all independent multipliers from passives)

the below passives are independent multipliers

To get the actual "Average Damage", combine the multipliers

Average Damage = ⌊ Base Damage x Guard x Critical Hit x Difficulty Multiplier x Buff Multiplier x Ailment Multiplier x Attack Multiplier x Additive Multiplier x Passive Multiplier Product ⌋

If Average Damage is 99,999 or greater, the final damage value is set to 99,999.

If Average Damage is 99,998 or less, the next step is to apply damage ranges. This can be any whole % of Average Damage from 95% to 105% (so 95% and 96% are both possible, but 95.5% isn't) selected at random, then rounded down.

Finally, if the final damage value is less than 1, it is instead 1.

Random Hit Count Weights

It's mentioned in-game that Luck influences the number of times multi-hit skills hit. In actuality the game generates a skip chance using

Skip Chance = ⌊ Attacker Agility / 10 + Attacker Luck / 20 ⌋

If Skip Chance would be greater than 10%, it is instead 10%.

Skip Chance is the percentage chance the game skips hit count randomization and gives the max number of hits. If the game randomizes the hit count, then all values from the minimum hit count to the maximum hit count are equally likely.

The vast majority of skills with a random hit count have a range from their minimum hit count to their minimum hit count + 2. For those skills, here's what the odds of each hit count look like based on the value of Skip Chance

Healing

Begin by converting your Weapon's Attack into a "True Weapon Attack" using the formula below

True Weapon Attack = ⌊ Displayed Weapon Attack x Archetype Modifier ⌋ x Sense of Kinship

Where "Archetype Modifier" is 0.85 for most archetypes, 0.9 for Prince, and 1.0 for enemies.

If the skill "Sense of Kinship" is equipped on the attacker, apply one of the below multipliers depending on the number of allies in the same lineage as the attacker, including the attacker themselves.

Allies in Matching Lineage

Sense of Kinship

1.1

1.2

1.3

1.5

From there the base healing is calculated like this for players

Base Healing = ⌊ True Weapon Attack x 0.45 + Skill Power x 1.3 + Magic Healing Factor ⌋

Meanwhile base healing is calculated like this for enemies

Base Healing = ⌊ True Weapon Attack x 0.5 + Skill Power + Magic Healing Factor x 0.6 ⌋

"Skill Power" is the power value of the healing skill being used.

"Magic Healing Factor" is a value derived from the skill user's Magic stat, based on the below lookup table (use only the highest applicable one)

Minimum Magic Value

Magic Healing Factor

Very few multipliers are applied to healing, with only the following to consider

Skill/Effect

Condition

Passive Multiplier

Arcane Unity

Healing Skill is Synthesis

1.1

Godly Blessing

1.5

The "Average Healing" is

Average Healing = ⌊ Base Healing x Passive Multiplier Product ⌋

If Average Healing is 99,999 or greater, the final healing value is set to 99,999 (though this is irrelevant, as there's no method in game to achieve more than 1,305 average healing from a single skill).

If Average Healing is 99,998 or less (which it will be), the next step is to apply damage ranges. This can be any whole % of Average Healing from 95% to 105% (so 95% and 96% are both possible, but 95.5% isn't) selected at random, then rounded down.

Finally, if the final healing value is less than 1, it is instead 1.

Accuracy/Evasion

The game begins by determining a "Base Accuracy" from the following formula

Base Accuracy = ⌊ (1 + Attacker Agility / 400 - Defender Agility / 800) x (Skill Hit - Evasion) ⌋

Evasion being the sum of evasion from Armor and Sub-Armor.
For enemies this is 15 on Fios humans, 20 on Luma humans, 25 on Voidblack Fios humans, and either 0 or 3 in all other cases.

Skill Hit is technically arbitrary on a per-skill basis, however they follow a specific set of rules based on who they target and what stat their damage scales off (note: only reliable for player-usable damaging skills)

Targets

Skill Hit (Strength-based)

Skill Hit (Magic-based)

all foes

with the following exceptions (among player-usable damaging skills)

Hit Rate = ⌊ Base Accuracy x Sukukaja Multiplier x Daze Multiplier x Passive Multiplier Product ⌋ - Reduction Total

If Hit Rate would be above 99%, it is instead 99%. If Hit Rate would be below 1%, it is instead 1%.

Lastly, under the following conditions, hit rate calculation is ignored, and a specific result is given

Critical Hit Rate

To start, only Strength-based Slash, Pierce, Strike and Almighty attacks can crit.
If the skill can crit, then crit rate is calculated as

Base Crit Rate = ⌊ ( Attacker Luck + 50 ) / ( Defender Luck + 50 ) x Skill Crit x Enemy Penalty ⌋

"Enemy Penalty" is 0.8 if an Enemy is attacking, and 1.0 if a Player is attacking.

"Skill Crit" is defined arbitrarily per skill. Below is what that value looks like for any (player-usable) skill

Ailment Infliction Rate

The ailment rate formula is

Base Ailment Rate = ⌊ (Attacker Luck + 100) / (Defender Luck + 100) x Skill Ailment Rate x Weakness Correction ⌋

With "Skill Ailment Rate" being defined on a per-skill basis. The following ailment rates are used for players (enemy-only skills may vary from this).

Ailment Recovery

Ailment Recovery attempts occur only at the start of each turn. And it cannot happen the turn immediately after receiving the ailment.

Ailment Recovery rate is

Ailment Recovery Rate = ⌊ Luck / 4 ⌋ + 20

Additionally, each ailment starts with some number of turns remaining that ticks down at the start of each turn. Once that ticks down to 0, a recovery is guaranteed.

Additionally, due to what appears to be an oversight, if any support effect (Tarukaja, Rebellion, Knight's Proclamation, etc.) on the afflicted expires at the start of their turn, all ailment recovery functions are skipped. This skips, among other things, decrementing the ailment timer, running the random recovery check, or even Instant Recovery's effect to recover from ailments immediately.

Effects of Ailments

Poison

After acting, afflicted loses 5% of their max HP. Cannot be lethal.

Malady

Strength, Magic, Endurance, Agility, and Luck are reduced to 1/3rd their original value, before applying stat caps.
Healing does not affect the afflicted character.

Enemy Drops and Rewards

EXP and A-EXP

If Fortune's Grasp and/or Archetypal Ring (does not stack) are found on the character, multiply A-EXP by 1.5.

Multipliers are applied to EXP and A-EXP based on the difference between the enemy's level and the player's level

Item Drop Rate

Each enemy has a common drop and a rare drop, the odds of them giving their drop are

True Drop Rate = (⌊ ( 1 + Total Luck of Party / 400 ) x Drop Rate ⌋ + Lucky Find) x Regicide

"Drop Rate" is the base drop rate for the item.

"Total Luck of Party" only includes the active party, not anyone in reserves.

"Lucky Find" is 20 if anyone in the party has the skill "Lucky Find" for common drops, or 20 if anyone in the party has the skill "Luckier Find" for rare drops. Otherwise this is 0.

"Regicide" is 2 if playing on the "Regicide" difficulty setting, otherwise it's 1.

Steal

Stealing can only steal the enemy's rare drop, and has one of the following Steal rates

Normal

Steal Chance = ⌊ Attacker Agility / 2 + Drop Rate x 1.2 ⌋ + Plunder Bonus

Equipment with "Increases success of stealing skills."

Steal Chance = ⌊ Attacker Agility + Drop Rate x 1.2 ⌋ + 10 + Plunder Bonus

"Plunder Bonus" is 20 if using Plunder instead of Steal.

"Drop Rate" is the base drop rate of the item being stolen. This can be any of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 25, or 100 depending on the enemy being stolen from.

At 89 Agility or more, when using equipment to boost the success rate of stealing skills, it is impossible for Steal to fail provided there is an item to Steal.

Debt Collection

The amount of MAG added to the battle result by Debt Collection is determined by

Bonus MAG = √(Attacker Level) x Attacker Archetype Rank x 10

Since MAG gained this way is added to the battle result itself, it is affected by Unscathed Triumph, and is not gained if running away.

Pickpocket

Pickpocket gives a 50% chance of receiving an enemy's common drop when stunning or killing them in the overworld while the protagonist is in Thief, Assassin, or Ninja. This chance cannot be modified.

Guard Duty

The protagonist is attacked by an enemy
The attack would strike the protagonist's weakness
the attack used is single-target
Hulkenberg is in the active party
Hulkenberg has no ailments
This ability has not been triggered previously this battle

then there is a chance the attack is redirected to Hulkenberg, depending on the ability unlocked

Ability

Activation Chance

None

Guard Duty

30%

Special Guard Duty

100%

Hulkenberg is treated as guarding for a redirected attack.

Victory Foresight

If the ability "Victory Foresight" is unlocked, then the following behavior will occur.

At the start of each player's turn, the game checks Victory Foresight's turn counter.
If the turn counter is 0, then there is a 31% chance that Gallica adds 2 blinking Turn Icons.
If she adds turn icons, Victory Foresight's turn counter is set to a random value from 6 to 9.

At the end of each enemy turn, if Victory Foresight's turn counter is greater than 0, it is lowered by 1. This occurs before the above behavior.

Conclusion

Let me know if there's anything that I didn't cover here that you think should be. I'm still working on this, and would appreciate any suggestions for what to include or look into.

@excellyon

The answer is Heat Up. They're still physical skills. They just use Magic **as if it was Strength** if Magic is higher.

excellyon 3 Jan @ 11:35am

Great post. Small question on the unique skills from the MC's exclusive archetype. As I understand it, it scales from the higher of St or Ma stat but does this also have the subsequent physical or magic multipliers applied?

For instance, if I have higher Ma than St and use one of the unique skills with Magic circle and Heat Up, which passives will be applied? Does this change if St is higher than Ma?

I see, thanks for the answer (and the amazing post).

@Rizzcous

Enemies can be immune to ailments independent of their corresponding damage resistance. Orgos are one of those enemies.

Rizzcous 31 Des 2024 @ 7:02am

I must be misunderstanding something, because it looks to me like Godkiller would have around 50% chance to instakill an enemy with no resistance to it, and both Godkiller and Hex application should be higher than base on enemies weak to Dark. But I've just reset 20 times using Godkiller and Curse Chant on an Orgo in the Tower by Brilehaven, and it hasn't one-shot or applied Hex a single time. What am I missing? Unless enemies have luck in the thousands I don't understand how that formula doesn't mean this Orgo should be dead as hell

@True Lump

It's referring to effects that aren't obtainable in any way, shape, or form normally, and aren't found on any enemies, but still exist behind the scenes and could be obtained via cheats.

True Lump 27 Des 2024 @ 11:02pm

Several times throughout you use * saying "skill is entirely unused". I'd like to clarify the meaning of it. Is that referring to redacted skill/items that ore referenced but go otherwise unused and are unobtainable, or is that referring to the skill/item/effect directly before it saying that those are unimplemented even though obtainable?

CTOBN [pembuat] 10 Des 2024 @ 10:50am

@Irfan

Unless there's an enemy that uses it I don't think so.

Irfan 8 Des 2024 @ 10:01pm

so does trial of the seekers weird hidden damage modifier ever actually come in play?

CTOBN [pembuat] 5 Des 2024 @ 3:06am

@Munchmatoast

4 Endurance does the same thing as 3 Armor Defense btw
