Wolf Rush: 148% + 180
Falcon Frenzy: 246.7% + 366 351.7% + 1066
Blitz: 280 + 566 395% + 1266
Anti Air Shot: 4% + 17


Normal Damage:
My anti air shot would do from 6,900 ~ 17,500 while blitz would do 8,800 ~ 13,300 (per hit). 26,400 ~ 39,900

Critical Damage:
My anti air shot would do from 70,000 ~ 150,000. while blitz would do anywhere from 58,000 ~ 101,000 (per hit). 174,000 ~ 303,000

Does anyone know how damage calculation works or at least has an idea? I know it's not simply plugging in your attack value into the skill damage formulas and has something to with refine damage but... I do not have the slightest clue how it actually works. It just seems extremely odd to me that given those skill damage formulas that anti air should could compare or even do more damage than blitz. Now if I were to assume the skill formula for blitz calculated all three hits together (which are the red values listed above) it would make a little bit more sense to me, but the numbers are still off more than they should be.

I've heard about damage caps but can't remember what values people said were the cap. Anyway my questions are:
-What is the proper way to calculate skill damage?
-What is the proper way to calculate normal (x) attack damage?
-How does weapon enchant affect skill/normal damage?
-Where are the skill damage formulas getting their value's from? (ex. 4% of _______ +17)


Any information and insight regarding this is appreciated.

Most PF skills work off the weapons Base attack value and not enchanted attack value(For example there's only a 2k dmg difference in Blitzs between a +16 Zau and a +20 zau) , while most the base archer skills work off total attack.

The higher up your CD is the less effective Blitz,Wolf, and other skills are compared to Multishot,Shootdown,AAS,Ice Shower, and all other non single hit skills.

The bane of PFs are strongest skills only calculate damage once so they'll always be weaker than the basic archer skills the higher your CD goes up. (If damage cap was still around)

Yup, Archers have I think the lowest actual attack in the game. Overlords also have this same issue which is why Pallies out damage them in everything.
