Thoughts on Kage, guys?

The formula DOES give the damage of the special skill. That’s what it’s a formula of. What it DOESN’T show is where to apply any bonuses or penalties that may be part of that special skill. But the post that I linked you like two posts ago corrects that problem.

Here they are together:

@SolemnWolf

Damage ≈ 100 x ( θ x Att / Def ) ^ 1.35

Tile damage is divided by three

@SolemnWolf

As long as the attack is inferior to the defense, the damage is ‘compressed’ between 1 and 33 for the tiles and 1 and 100 for the special skills and attacks of the defenders.

Then somebody asks the formula creator:

@flyingsolow

Semi-related note: Is a X% attack buff really a X^1.35 % damage buff? i.e. Kiril’s 30% attack buff is a 42.5% damage buff? Kiril’s 30% defense buff is a 30% damage decrease.[i.e. (1/1.3)^1.35]

And he replies:

@SolemnWolf

It’s almost that.
Attack is Attack-Stat of the attacker with all the bonuses, penalties and combos
Defense is Defense-Stat of the defender with all the bonuses and penalties
±50% is a random coefficient varying from 0.5 to 1.5 and applied to the Attack/Defense ratio
On the other hand, the effects of colors and critical hits are applied after the indicated calculation.
For the cases studied, critical hits only appeared for tiles and in less than 4% of cases.

You haven’t offended me, but it is a little irritating that you’re persistently arguing about how to do the calculation when I linked the original thread that contained it (which you could have read through), then linked the clarifying post by the formula originator (from that same thread) which explains that your proposed formulation is wrong.
