How Damage Is Calculated

Please, dear god PLEASE could an admin/GM release how damage is calculated, both melee and spell? There's SO much speculation, and we honestly have no idea what we're doing. It USED to be alot simpler, and we could figure out the math. However, nowadays with the elements, raw and % damage, and so on and so on, we NEED to understand how damage is calculated in order to lay the speculation to rest and to make better builds, based on facts.

 

I have a 20-60 rare weapon for my warrior, and somehow that means I get 5000 damage uppercuts

 

first you need to find the quantum formula for time travel

how to math

 

Well it's simple,
I'll do it in easy math.
rop+se*RnG=dmg
What this means, in steps is
rop=Rage of players
Se= Salte'ds ego
RnG = Random number generator/ RnGesus
Dmg= Destroyed minds of gamers

 

Well, I think that how it works is that every attack does a certain amount of damage based on your weapon, and additional damage buffs. Then, a percentage of weapon or total damage is either added on or just a part of it, which is the elemental damage. Then, it takes the elemental damage buffs that you have, and adds it further to the elemental damage there.

For example:
Spin Attack (Grade I)
"Damage": 200%
✦ Thunder Damage: 30%

Weapon Damage:
Neutral Damage: 100-100
✦ Thunder Damage: 100-100

Damage dealt when using Spin Attack:
Neutral Damage: 200-200
✦ Thunder Damage: 230-230 (30 + 200)

Notice the underlined areas. The example is what I think is most likely.

 

2+2=7x2-10


Simple forumula for making a brain


How does this help? Idk

 

20-60 dmg for all elements? what about your strength skill?

 

Pretty sure he meant 500dmg. 5000dmg is on par with the likes of Apocalypse.

 

Well damage is calculated by
1: The amount of damage ur weapon does
2: The strengh skill ( adds x% more damage)
3: If you use any spells ( 100% is normal damage of 1 and 2, less than 100% is of course less damage and more than 100% is more damage than base)
4: Any modifiers to ur equipment.

Meaning that if you specify in earth for example, having alot of buffs to support earth on ur equipment, a weapon with high earth damage and using a spell that does alot of damage can output the most amount of damage per hit (against enemies that are weak or neutral against earth of course)

 

I know that weapon speed is accounted for in spells. On my Alkatraz for example, I'll have less of a spell multiplier to account for the huge damage per hit, while on my assassin with super-fast Stylist's Scissors from my +2 Mummy's Rag, I'll have more of a multiplier due to the lower damage per hit.

 

I believe the thread creator is looking for the precise mathematical formula that comprehensively describes how each and every aspect is applied to your damage output, and in what order.

 

Pretty much, yeah. I mean, look at all the comments! We have no idea what we're doing!

Essentially, damage is calculated by taking allllll those different things that people said and putting em together.

 

List all the variables for me. I may be able to guess it.

 

Alright, I'll do the variables that apply to melee and spell. Here are the ones I can think of off the top of my head

Melee:
Raw melee damage
Melee damage %
Attack speed (SHOULD only affect hit rate but adding anyways)
Elemental damage of weapon
Elemental % from gear
Powders (eventually)
Strength
Elemental damage from skill points
Powders (not yet implemented)

Spell:
Spell damage from spell
Side elemental damage from spell (ex 30% fire and earth on meteor)
Strength
Elemental % damage
Elemental damage from weapon
Elemental damage from skill points
Raw spell damage
Spell damage %
Attack speed (modifies spell damage for sure, but we don't know if it's %, raw, both or even how much)
Powders (not yet implemented)

 

my strength is 50. And @Net_Twerk when I said 5000, I meant 5000

________________________________

im not sure that can explain my weapon... 20-60 damage to do 5000+ uppercuts would mean my multiplier is At the minimum around 8000%

 

Skiens' Madness is what you're using, right? It has super fast attack speed, which means your spells get a significant boost.

 

Yes, it was Skiens' madness. but how does the damage become that high? mabye since super is 3 tiers higher than normal, its 3x stronger meaning its 60-180

 

Might calculate it if i have the spare time.
