damage calculation

  1. Call Damage Formula on Map

    Okay, so new to RPGMaker Mz, I've mainly put off working with MZ due to lack of plugins vs. the previous version. So long story short, I'm trying to create my own action-battle-system of sorts using common events. I'm no pro at scripting but if I need to use it I'll learn what I can. Here's the...

    Custom damage formulas that I can edit all at the same time?

    Say I want my attack formula to read something along the lines of [a.atk - X], where X is a custom defense formula stored somewhere else in the editor, maybe in a placeholder skill ID. So if [X = b.def] and I want to change it to [X = b.def*0.5], this change happens to every single skill that...

    Damage Values.

    I am frustrated. Very much so. Anyway onto why. I have a character who uses Almighty skills, and the formula for this particular skill is (a.mat * 2) - b.mdf. My actor (Jackst3r) has 191 MAT, and my enemy has 25 MDF. This means the skill should do about 357 damage, right? Wrong apparently. It's...

    So I have this problem, mostly with HoTs, DoTs, and one classes' "heal when dealing damage" mechanic where numbers are often shown as partial values (6.4 instead of 6). How do I make this display only show whole numbers or round to the nearest whole number? https://i.imgur.com/vHsPF14.jpg

    So in the game I've been developing, I want Weapons to have a Unique Value (Power), that is used to calculate Damage, alongside the Character's Parameters. Essentially, I want to be able to make a formula like: ( (a.atk / b.def) * Power )

    XP Damage Formula editing gone wrong

    I'm trying to do the following: PDEF and MDEF can only max out at 85 and they decrease damage by a percentage rather the default direct subtraction. STR partially ignores armor (is currently 20% of your Str) Physical and Magical defense does not affect healing spells For some reason, I keep...
