Damage formula

This page is a stub. You could probably expand this page should you wish to do so.

There is not a single damage formula. Different types of damage have different means of calculating damage:

Base Damage

• Weapon damage: which covers damage calculation for weapons, unarmed combat, and throwing.
• Spell damage: Each spell has its own damage formula; see a specific spell's page for more details.
  • Most spells are in [dice notation], and deal nD(Spellpower * multiplier) damage. Spells like Airstrike may further be multiplied.
  • By default, spells check AC and EV. Some may ignore one or the other, or both.

Other Factors

• To-hit: Determines the chance to-hit (a.k.a accuracy) of an attack. Some attacks have infinite to-hit.
• Weapon speed: Determines how fast you swing/fire a weapon or fists. Most [[spell]s have a delay of 1.0.

Damage Reduction

• Armour class (AC) will reduce most attacks by (0 to AC) damage.
  • Physical attacks in melee are affected by guaranteed damage reduction (GDR), which increase the minimum AC roll.
• Evasion score (EV) determines how likely you are to dodge an avoidable attack completely. See Evasion#To-hit_versus_EV for formulas.
• Shield score (SH) determines how likely you are to block an attack completely. Melee attacks, ranged attacks, and certain projectile-like spells can be blocked. See Shields#Blocking for formulas.
