Hit detection

(Currently unknown how a hit/miss is determined)

Damage Calculation

The following method is used to determine the damage of a normal attack:

1. Calculate base damage (round BaseDamage down):

BaseDamage = [(AttackerOffense * 3) - DefenderDefense] / 4

2. Get random multiplier from this table. There is a 50% chance of RandMult being negative.

Odds 3.9% 7.8% 7.8% 7.8% 7.8% 7.0% 7.0% 6.3% 6.3% 5.5% 4.7% 4.7% 3.9% 3.1% 3.1% 2.3% 2.3% 1.6% 1.6% 1.6% 0.8% 0.8% 0.8% 0.8%
RandMult 0x00 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0x05 0x06 0x07 0x08 0x09 0x0A 0x0B 0x0D 0x0E 0x0F 0x10 0x11 0x12 0x13 0x14 0x15 0x16 0x17 0x18

3. Calculate final damage (round FinalDamage down):

FinalDamage = BaseDamage * (1 ± 0.1 * RandMult)


This means that any normal attack can hit for 76% to 124% of its base damage.

Crit detection
