INTRODUCTION
===============================================================================
Welcome to my Damage and Ability Formulas guide. Most of the formulas here were
gotten either through hours of in-game testing or from people who can actually
hack the information straight from the game. Since a lot of this information
was got from in-game testing it might not be exactly how the game works out
the information but it will give the same results.
===============================================================================

[1.0] ATTACK COMMAND
===============================================================================
The formula for damage when using the Attack command differs depending on what
weapon a character is equipped with.
-----------------
STANDARD WEAPONS
=================
Base = Atk Pwr - Target's Defence
Bonus = Str ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + Str
Damage = Base * Bonus
Used by Dagger, Sword, Staff, Rod, Spear, Claw, Flute.
---------------
SAVE THE QUEEN
===============
Base = (Atk Pwr + Level) - Target's Defence
Bonus = Str ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + Str
Damage = Base * Bonus
-----------------------------
THIEF SWORDS + KNIGHT SWORDS
=============================
Base = Atk Pwr - Target's Defence
Bonus = [(Str + Spr) / 2] ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + [(Str + Spr) / 2]
Damage = Base * Bonus
---------------
HAMMER + FORKS
===============
Base = Atk Pwr - Target's Defence
Bonus = 1 ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + Str - 1
Damage = Base * Bonus
--------
RACKETS
========
Base = Atk Pwr - Target's Defence
Bonus = [(Str + Spd) / 2] ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + [(Str + Spd) / 2]
Damage = Base * Bonus
===============================================================================
[2.0] DAMAGE ALTERATIONS
===============================================================================
When using the Attack command or Elemental Spells and Abilities, damage can
vary greatly depending on enemy weaknesses and whether you are using support
abilities like MP Attack, Reflect *2, or Killer abilities etc.
---------------------
ELEMENTAL WEAKNESSES
=====================
When using an Attack or Spell which has an element, your Bonus can get an
increase or decrease depending on the resistances of the target.
Normal : Takes standard damage
Weak : Bonus is increased by 50%
Half : Bonus is reduced by 50%
Neutralise: Takes 0 damage
Absorb : Absorbs all damage (Magic Defence is ignored)
---------------
ATTACK COMMAND
===============
When using the Attack command, your Bonus can get an increase or decrease
depending on certain conditions. These increases or decreases are added or
taken away in a certain order:
[Bonus + 50%] if using a Killer ability.
[Bonus + 50%] if using MP Attack.
[Bonus + 50%] if you are in Trance.
[Bonus + 50%] if you are under Berserk.
[Bonus + 50%] if enemy is Back Attacked.
[Bonus + 50%] if enemy is under Mini.
[Bonus / 2] if you are in the Back Row.
[Bonus / 2] if the enemy is under Protect.
[Bonus + 50%] if enemy is weak to the element of your weapon.
[Bonus + 50%] if you are wearing an Elem-Atk raising item.
[Bonus / 2] if enemy halves the element of your weapon.
[Bonus = 1] if you are under Mini.
---------------
IPSEN'S CASTLE
===============
When in Ipsen's Castle, you'll notice that your stronger weapons do lower
damage than your weaker weapons. This is because when in Ipsen's Castle the
Base part of the damage formula when using Attack is altered to:
Base = (60 - Atk Pwr) - Target's Defence
-------------
MAGIC SPELLS
=============
When using Magic Spells, your Bonus can get an increase or decrease depending
on certain conditions. These increases or decreases are added or taken away
in a certain order:
[Bonus / 2] if you multi target the Spell.
[Bonus / 2] If you are under Mini.
[Bonus / 2] if enemy is under Shell.
[Bonus + 50%] if enemy is weak to the element of your Spell.
[Bonus + 50%] if you are wearing an Elem-Atk raising item.
[Bonus / 2] if enemy halves the element of your Spell.
---------------------
REFLECT + REFLECT x2
=====================
If your entire party has Reflect and you bounce a Spell of all party members,
damage done is four times stronger.
Reflect x2 makes it so any Spell bounced off a target with Reflect will cause
twice as much damage. This means a Spell bounced off your entire party would do
eight times as much damage with Reflect x2.
If there is only one target in battle then they will take the full *4 or *8
damage and your Bonus is not halved. But if there are multiple targets the
Bonus is halved and the damage is randomly split between them.
E.g, you face a group of three Mandragora's. Damage could end up like this:
1st Mandragora: Damage * 4 1st Mandragora: Damage * 6
2nd Mandragora: Damage * 4 2nd Mandragora: Damage * 2
3rd Mandragora: 0 Damage 3rd Mandragora: Damage * 0
1st Mandragora: Damage * 8 1st Mandragora: Damage * 4
2nd Mandragora: 0 Damage 2nd Mandragora: Damage * 2
3rd Mandragora: 0 Damage 3rd Mandragora: Damage * 2
===============================================================================
[3.0] TRANCE
===============================================================================
Your Trance gauge ranges from 0 (empty) to 255 (full). When you take damage
your Trance gauge fills up and when it becomes full your character enters
Trance. This results in new abilities as well as increasing the Bonus when
using Physical attacks by 50%.
Gain Rate = Random MOD Spirit
or
Gain Rate = Spirit (if High Tide is equipped)
Every turn you take in Trance reduces the gauge and when it becomes empty you
revert back to normal.
Deduction Rate = ([(300 - Level) / Spirit] * 10) MOD 256
-------
ZIDANE
=======
Zidane's Skill command becomes Dyne. Each of Zidane's Skills now change to a
specific Dyne. All Dynes are Physical attacks that target either one or all
enemies in battle.
Damage Formula:
---------------
Base = Dyne Power - Target's Defence
Bonus = Str ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + Str
Damage = Base * [Bonus + 50%]
Notes:
Bonus is halved by Protect
Bonus is reduced to 1 whilst under Mini.
Skill/Dyne/Power:
-----------------
Flee = Free Energy = [(Atk Pwr * 15) / 10]
Detect = Tidal Flame = [(Atk Pwr * 15) / 10]
What's That!? = Scoop Art = Atk Pwr * 2
Soul Blade = Shift Break = Atk Pwr * 2
Annoy = Stella Circle 5 = [(Atk Pwr * 25) / 10]
Sacrifice = Meo Twister = [(Atk Pwr * 25) / 10]
Lucky Seven = Solution 9 = Atk Pwr * 3
Thievery = Grand Lethal = Atk Pwr * 4
--------
STEINER
========
Steiner's Attack command becomes Trance Attack. When using the Attack command
instead of the standard 50% increase to his Bonus, Steiner gains a three times
increase. Exception to this is when using the Blood Sword, Steiner only gets
the normal 50% increase when using it.
-----
VIVI
=====
Vivi's Black command becomes Dbl Blk. Vivi can now cast two Black Magic spells
in a row.
-------
DAGGER
=======
Dagger's Summon command becomes Eidolon. A summon used in Trance will now
randomly cast itself for no MP cost. These summons however are much weaker than
when normally cast and though these summons only show the half animation, their
damage is not reduced by a third.
Power:
------
Ramuh : 31 Atk Pwr Atomos : Damage = [(16 * Target's Max HP) / 100]
Leviathan: 63 Atk Pwr Odin : 49 Atk Pwr
Ifrit : 37 Atk Pwr Bahamut: 77 Atk Pwr

all enemies and party members.
------

======

her Trance gauge runs out and attack all enemies in battle instead of just one.
Damage Formula:
---------------
Base = Atk Pwr - Target's Defence
Bonus = 3 ... [(Lv + Str) / 8] + Str - 1
Damage = Base * [Bonus + 50%]
Notes:
Final Damage is divided by the number of targets in battle.
Bonus is halved by Protect
Bonus is reduced to 1 whilst under Mini.
------
QUINA
======
Quina's Eat command becomes Cook. Quina can now learn a Blue Magic when the
enemy has 1/2 or less of it's HP remaining instead of 1/4.
-----
EIKO
=====
Eiko's White command becomes Dbl Wht. Eiko can now cast two White Magic spells
in a row.
===============================================================================
[4.0] STEAL
===============================================================================
Steal allows you to steal up to four items from an enemy. As you probably know
from all those "Couldn't Steal Anything" messages, you are not guaranteed to
get an item when you steal.
-------
Step 1
=======
Steal has to successfully hit the target.
Atk = Random MOD (Level + Spirit)
Def = Random MOD (Enemy Level)
If Atk is equal or greater than Def, Steal is a success and moves to Step 2.
This step can be ignored if Bandit is equipped: Bandit causes any Steal to
have a 100% success rate.
-------
Step 2
=======
Checks to see if you get an item, they're 4 possible slots to choose from.
Rare : 1/256
Semi-Rare: 16/256
Uncommon : 64/256
Common : 256/256
Slots are checked from Rare to Common. If you fail to get the item in the
Rare slot it moves down to Semi-Rare, fail to get the item in the Semi-Rare
slot it moves down to Uncommon, fail to get the item in Uncommon slot and
you'll get what ever item is in the Common slot.
If you get a slot that has no item or you already stole it, Steal will fail.
If you equip Master Thief the Rare and Semi-Rare slots are changed from 1/256
and 16/256 to 32/256. Steal will also now ignore empty slots.
If you succeed in getting an item, Steal moves to Step 3.
-------
Step 3
=======
This Step deals with Mug and Steal Gil.
Mug does a random amount of damage from:
0 ... [Zidane's Level * Target's Level / 2] - 1
Steal Gil steals a random amount of Gil from:
0 ... [Zidane's Level * Target's Level / 4]

----------
CARBUNCLE
==========
This Summon does no damage but instead inflicts a positive status effect on
your entire party. Normally the status effect Carbuncle inflicts is Reflect,
however this can be changed by equipping Eiko with certain Add-On's:

Diamond : Diamond Light = Vanish (+ Protect if full animation)
Moonstone: Pearl Light = Shell (+ Protect if full animation)

Notes:
HP restored is doubled if Concentrate is equipped.
If Eiko is in your party, there is a chance Phoenix will automatically revive
your party if they are all KO'd. The chance of this happening is equal to:
[(# of Phoenix Pinions / 256) * 100]
This automatic Rebirth Flame has a different animation than normal. It also
deals no damage to the enemy and uses no MP.
