Damage formula

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

Different types of damage have different means of calculating 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.

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.

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.
