    Setting an actor's EX-Paramater with a formula

    Good evening, In terms of writing a damage formula, how do you set the value of an EX-Parameter, if at all possible? I am looking to change an xparam value of an actor to be inversely proportionate to their HP (in this case, CRI) when a status effect is active, and I can't seem to find a...

    How do I turn this complicated formula into a state?

    Okay, bottom line here, I have a bit of a mess on my hands. I want to use a formula to create a skill that applies an "Inverted" state to "Invert" the statistics of my characters for 3 turns (e.g. 70 atk at lv 50 would become 255-70 = 185 and 140 atk at lv 100 would become 510-140 = 370 etc) As...

    Creating scaling damage formula

    I'm looking for a scaling formula for damage in VX ace, since i don't know if there's a script in VX Ace similar to Yanfly's armor scaling in MV.

    Quick question about a formula

    So if "if a.state?(16)" means "If the user has state 16 inflicted", how would I write it as "If the user DOES NOT have state 16 inflicted"? Or if anyone knows a way to make an item unusable if a state is inflicted that would help too... Thank you.

    Display formula in description?

    I googled for it and nothing came up, but... Say I wanted to display how much damage a spell would do by using a formula in the description. So it would look like "Does 120 damage." But to get 120, say its the formula "100 + A.mat" and all I would have to do is type something like "Does...

    TGR TarGet Rate trait Formula

    Long time ago, I had found a thread here that explained how the TarGet Rate trait formula worked. I tried searching both here, and on google, but instead all I got was, "How do i make someone get hit?" rather than a full explanation of the formula. On Steam, the closest one was Which was a...

    Can the hit rate be based on a variable?

    Update: While it might not be possible to edit the hit rate formula, so it can include a variable, what you CAN do is create an common event, put in the value your variable holds and increase or decrease the evasion rate of the characters. Is there a way to include variables in the hit rate...

    How to inflict a state to user and target at the same time.

    I helped someone with this a while ago. This does not require eventing. This is how you do it. b.add_state(x) = State to Target a.add_state(x) = State to Caster add_state(x) adds a state. x = state ID b.add_state(1); if b.state?(1); a.add_state(2); else; 0; end; damage formula "b" is target...
  13. [Yanfly] In notetags, how to apply an element to damage/healing?

    The way I'm doing it is basically (not exactly) like this (I changed some syntax so it would show up in one screenshot): It works if the target has higher/lower than 100% Physical Element, because of "user.atk * target.elementRate(1)" However, this isn't a good solution for things that...

    Stripping down the battle formula

    So, I'm sort of grasping how the battle stats work, but I've never been good at getting it, so I tend to leave it at defaults. I'm trying to work out a more rock-paper-scissors means of fighting. Instead of random number generators modifying everything, I more or less want things to have set...

    Custom Damage-over-time Effect

    So I'm trying to create a custom damage over time effect where the damage and turns it takes is based on the users MP at the time the skill is used (the MP shouldn't be a cost, but it clears once the effect hits the enemy. It's 5 as that's the characters max MP at all times). I am using...
