The damage formula, elements, faction bonus and stats

Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant battle mechanics

A hit deals the attacker's Attack minus the target's Armor (physical) or Resistance (magic), times the skill's percentage. Crits, blocks, DMG Bonus and Final DMG Bonus scale that, and MR Cases add an element on top: x1.5 against the element they counter, x0.7 against the one that counters them. Every cap below is the battle code's own.

1. 1.HitA hit lands with 100% + Hit - Dodge (both in the attacker's and target's own numbers).
2. 2.AttackAttack x (1 + Attack Bonus). Attack Bonus can fall to -90% at the lowest.
3. 3.DefenseArmor against physical damage, Resistance against magic, each x (1 + its own bonus + Defense Bonus).
4. 4.Ignore defenseIgnore Defense minus the target's resistance to it, held between 0% and 50%.
5. 5.Base damageAttack - Defense x (1 - Ignore Defense), but never less than 5% of Attack + 10.
6. 6.SkillBase damage x the skill's percentage (the number in its text), plus any flat damage the skill adds.
7. 7.Critical hitChance: Crit - Crit Res, held between -60% and 60%. A critical hit deals 150% + Crit Strength - Crit Reduction, that part held between -20% and 50%, so 130% to 200%.
8. 8.BlockChance: Block - Pierce, held between -60% and 60%. A blocked hit deals 70% + Block Reduction - Block Strength, that part held between -20% and 20%, so 50% to 90%.
9. 9.DMG Bonusx (1 + DMG Bonus - DMG Reduction, plus the faction and class bonuses against the target), held at -80% or more.
10. 10.Final DMGx (1 + Final DMG Bonus - Final DMG Reduction), held between -60% and 300%.
11. 11.ElementElement DMG Bonus and Penetration against the target's Element DMG Resistance; a Case hitting the element it counters also gains its counter bonus.
12. 12.RollThe result is multiplied by a random 95% to 105%.
13. 13.Element advantageLast, the hit is multiplied by the element table: x1.5 against the element the attacker counters, x0.7 against the one that counters it.

Only MR Cases carry an element. Water counters Fire, Fire counters Wind, Wind counters Thunder, Thunder counters Earth, Earth counters Water. The table is the damage multiplier for the attacker's element (rows) against the target's (columns).

Deploying several Cases of the same faction (Empire, 51 Cases; Bifrost, 49 Cases; Eastrise, 45 Cases; Nebu, 27 Cases) switches on Synergy, and each tier adds to the ones before it.

DPS (79), Support (39), Healing (17), Tank (28), Control (9). Faction and class bonuses against the target join DMG Bonus in step 9.
