How a hit is worked out, the hit checks, elements and every buff and debuff

Dislyte damage formula and battle mechanics

A skill hits for its ratio of the caster's ATK (or 82% of their DEF or max HP), times 1,800 over 570 plus the target's DEF. Damage bonuses, the hit type and the skill's level-up growth then multiply in. The damage calculator runs the same steps for any Esper's skills.

Damage formula

  1. 1.Base damage

    stat x ratio

    Each damage part of a skill names a stat and a ratio: "30% ATK + 70% DEF" is two parts added together. A part on the caster's DEF or max HP counts 82% of it, so tank damage trails ATK damage at the same ratio. Parts on the target's max HP count all of it. Skills that grow with SPD add SPD times a rate to the ratio before anything else.

  2. 2.Skill bonuses

    x (1 + Skill 1 or Skill 3 bonus) x (1 + single-target or AoE bonus)

    Effects that raise Skill 1 damage apply only to Skill 1, and Skill 3 bonuses only to Skill 3. Every hit also takes either the single-target or the AoE bonus, whichever kind of hit it is. The target's own modifiers of each kind add into the same brackets.

  3. 3.Damage dealt and damage taken

    x max(0.15, 1 + dealt - reduced) x max(0.5, 1 + taken - reduction)

    The caster's damage-dealt bonuses and penalties form one bracket that can't fall below 15%. The target's damage-taken increases and damage reduction form the second, which can't fall below 50%, so damage reduction never takes off more than half.

  4. 4.DEF

    x 1,800 / (570 + (1 - ignored) x DEF)

    DEF cuts damage fast at first and slower later: 0 DEF gives x3.16, 500 DEF gives x1.68, 1,000 DEF gives x1.15, 1,500 DEF gives x0.87, 2,000 DEF gives x0.70, 3,000 DEF gives x0.50. Ignore-DEF effects take their share off the target's DEF first, so ignoring 100% gives the full x3.16.

  5. 5.Hit type and skill growth

    x (1 + h) x (1 + g / 0.7) / (1 + g) - h x g / (0.7 x (1 + g)) x D

    h is the hit type's modifier: C. DMG minus 1 on a crit (50% at the base 150%), +30% on an Elemental Boon, -25% on a miss and 0 on a normal hit. g is the growth the skill's level adds (shown on each level in the calculator), and D is the damage so far with step 3 capped at 1. Growth lifts normal hits (g = 0.25 adds 8.6%, g = 1 adds 21%) and trims crits, more so the higher C. DMG is: at 250% C. DMG, g = 0.25 turns x2.5 into x2.29. Levelling a skill narrows the gap between its crits and its normal hits.

  6. 6.Final adjustments

    x skill-specific bonus, at least 1

    Some skills carry a final bonus of their own: more damage per buff or debuff counted, by missing HP, against a lower DEF than the caster's or by the number of enemies left. A hit that would deal less than 1 deals 1.

Hit checks

The game rolls three checks in order and stops at the first that lands. A miss comes first: its chance is the target's block chance minus the caster's hit, and an attacker at an elemental disadvantage gives the target +50% block. A crit comes next: C. RATE (at most 100%) minus the target's crit resistance, +15% with elemental advantage. An Elemental Boon is last and only happens with advantage, at 50%. A hit that is none of the three is a normal hit.

  • NormalDamage: x1When: No other check landed
  • CritDamage: x C. DMG (150% base)When: C. RATE roll, +15% with advantage
  • Elemental BoonDamage: x1.3When: With advantage only, 50% of non-crits
  • MissDamage: x0.75When: Block roll, +50% block at a disadvantage

Elements

Inferno, Wind and Flow beat each other in a circle. Umbra beats all three and only Shimmer beats Umbra, while nothing beats Shimmer.

Battle rules in the game's words

Battle basics

Elemental Classes

All Espers and Miramon can be grouped into five major Elemental Classes: Inferno, Wind, Flow, Shimmer, and Umbra.

Inferno, Wind, and Flow are the three basic attributes. They counter each other in the following order: Inferno > Wind > Flow > Inferno. Shimmer and Umbra are special attributes. Umbra counters all three basic attributes, and Shimmer counters Umbra.

Attackers belonging to a superior Elemental Class gain a +15% chance to trigger a Crit and +50% an Elemental Boon.

Attackers belonging to a disadvantaged Elemental Class suffer a +50% chance to Miss.

Determining Attack Outcomes

The result of an attack action is judged on many factors such as the differences in stats and other metrics between the attacker and target which may trigger a Miss, Crit, or Elemental Boon.

Attack outcomes are judged in the order of Miss > Crit > Elemental Boon. There is no need to determine a subsequent result if either of the first two are triggered.

Status Effects (Buffs/Debuffs)

Espers and Miramon can both cast a wide range of potential status effects lasting for many turns using abilities or equipment.

Ongoing beneficial status effects (buffs) are highlighted in green.

Ongoing negative status effects (debuffs) are highlighted in red.

Undispellable status effects tagged as ongoing effects will be highlighted by a golden frame.

Ongoing status effects that ignore ACC and RESIST, cannot Miss, and must trigger are highlighted by a silver frame.

ACC and RESIST

The success of any ongoing negative status effect (including dispels or Action Point debuffs) from an Esper or Miramon will be initially judged according to its chance to trigger (as outlined in the ability description).

Once this initial judgement has been made, if the target's RESIST minus the attacker's ACC is smaller than 20%, then the target has a 20% chance to block the effect.

Once this initial judgement has been made, if the target's RESIST minus the attacker's ACC is greater than 20%, then this amount is the target's chance to block the effect.

ACC: the chance for an attacker to successfully hit a target with an ongoing negative status effect increases along with their ACC rating.

RESIST: the chance for a target to block an incoming, ongoing status effect increases with their RESIST rating.

Action Points (AP)

All Espers and Miramon move based on an "Action Point bar". When they reach the end of the bar, then their turn begins.

Certain things modify this Action Point bar including:

All units experience an Action Point increase based on their current SPD at the start of battle or the end of someone's turn.

Many positive and negative status effects can increase or reduce Action Points.

Cooldowns

The vast majority of non-basic abilities can only be cast at certain preset intervals, that is, after their cooldown has elapsed. In other words, abilities cannot be used prior to the end of their cooldown.

A cooldown moves 1 turn closer to expiration upon the completion of its character's turn. The number of turns remaining on a cooldown can be significantly altered (that is, increased or decreased) through the use of buffs/debuffs.

Bonuses

Equipment Collection

Each unlocked Ritual Miracle instance offers 3 daily equipment loot bonuses.

The first time you clear a new difficulty for Ritual Miracle, your daily loot bonuses will not be triggered.

Boost Stone Collection

After unlocking the Desolate Lands, you can get 100 extra Boost Stone loot bonuses each calendar week.

The four Elemental Shadows in the Desolate Lands share loot bonuses, and bonus attempts are not deducted if a battle is lost.

Blitz

Basic Rules

When your best run for the current stage (number of turns/battle rating) has reached the requirements, the Blitz function will be unlocked. Blitz offers the same rewards as an actual challenge!

Blitz is a type of automated battle which cannot be canceled while in progress. Blitz will stop when you run out of Stamina, or when you run out of MemoChips.

When "Stop Upon Battle Failure" is enabled, Blitz will automatically stop when you lose a battle. This can be disabled manually.

During Blitz, Helper Espers cannot be used. If you exceed the specified number of turns, you will automatically lose and won't receive rewards.

MemoChip Consumption Rules

The number of MemoChips required to Blitz different dungeons and levels differs.

You must own more MemoChips than the maximum number required in order to Blitz a stage.

During Blitz, a defeat or a lower battle rating will cost the maximum number of MemoChips required for the stage.

The number of MemoChips consumed by each Blitz will be calculated based on the actual number of turns or battle rating.

3-Star Requirements
