These formulas are slightly out of date.
The spell damage formula is as follows:
Spell Damage = max(1, (damage_range * spell_data * magic_dmg * critmod * aoe_mod * channel_mod) * defense_mit)
| Factor | Description | Formula |
|---|---|---|
| damage_range | The variable range of the spell's damage | 0.8-1.2 on average |
| spell_data | Damage factor from the spell | (See below) |
| crit_mod | Bonus for critical hits | 1.5x (1x otherwise) |
| aoe_mod | Bonus for the primary target of an AoE | 2x (1x otherwise) |
| channel_mod | Bonus if Channeling is active | 1.5x (1x otherwise) |
| defense_mit | Mitigation for the element and attack type in question | Varies |
