Ok well few things I dont get
"After two Hero Drinks, Barret has 408 Str and Spr. His base damage is thus 19338. Angermax does 1/2 of Base Damage (9669), and Emerald Weapon has 180 Def, so that drops the damage to 5877 to 6269 per hit of Angermax."
spr=spirit i think
so spirit affects attack damage? and where did this 19338 figure come from heh.
Now I know from earlier on in the game that +1 defense point deducts 1 damage cause I had 1 character with 5 more defense than cloud and he took 5 less damage so I assumed the most damage possible you can deduct from a attack is 255 and defense % was much more effective. But looking at these figures its stating 180 defence is the equivalent to 5877
, also I dont know how the luck was worked out, because I know late game my characters especially with their ultimate weapons tend to get critical hit every 3 to 4 attacks at least even when in fury mode but have luck nowhere near 255, I always thought accuracy was down to the attack %.
I am probably wrong on all this but things I want to know are.
What does luck actually do
What does spirit do(defense v magic attacks?)
How do you work out attack damage
What does attack% do, I am fairly sure defense % cause enemy to miss % of times because with defense % of 50 enemy misses an awful lot.
Also like to add 9999 hp can be achieved without hp plus because barret had no magic materia on him so had no penalties on his hp bar.
