SweetWilly013: /* Technique Damage */

Compilation of formulas and other mechanics.

==Physical Damage==
To calculate physical damage (meaning any damage not coming from a special attack or a technique), begin by calculating the equipment ATP:

<code>EA = [WA + AA + ShA + Grind x 2] x [ATR + 1.0]</code>
* EA = Equipment ATP
* WA = Weapon base ATP
* AA = Armor ATP
* ShA = Shield ATP
* ATR = [[Weapon Attributes|Weapon attribute]] %

Next, add the bonuses from shifta:

<code>SA = [BA x Shifta] + [(MWA - MinWA) x Shifta]</code>
* SA = Shifta ATP
* BA = base ATP
* Shifta = Shifta Base Power (table below)
* MWA = Maximum possible weapon ATP
* MinWA = Minimum possible weapon ATP

To determine your final ATP, add your BA, EA, and SA together:

<code>ATP = BA + EA + SA</code>

Finally, to calculate your damage on a monster:

<code>[(ATP - DFP)/5] x 0.9 = Weak/Base</code>
* Heavy: Base x 1.89
* Sacrifice: Base x 3.32
* [[Vjaya]]: Base x 5.56
* Critical: Result x 1.5

==Accuracy==
<code>Effective ATA = (Total ATA) * (Attack Type modifier) * (Combo Step modifier)</code>

* Attack Type modifier is 1.0 for Weak Attack, 0.7 for Heavy Attack, 0.5 for Special Attack
* Combo Step modifier is 1.0 for first button press in combo, 1.3 for second, 1.69 for third.

<code>Effective EVP = (Enemy EVP) * (Status Effect modifier)</code>

Status Effect modifier is 0.85 if Paralyzed or Shocked, 0.7 if Frozen.

<code>Accuracy = Effective ATA - (Effective EVP) * 0.2</code>

* Accuracy is further reduced by Distance*0.33 if it's a Hunter/Force without Smartlink.
* Accuracy is further reduced by manual evasion, but the exact influence is unclear.

==Technique Damage==
Technique damage formula:

<code>{[(MST + TBP)/5] x (1.0 + CB + WB + MB)} x (1 - RES)</code>

* TBP: Technique Base Power
* CB: Class Bonus
* WB: Weapon Bonus
* MB: Merge Bonus
* RES: Resistance
