Damage Taken

= Round {Enemy ATK
   x (1 + Enemy ATK Buffs)
   x (Enemy Elemental Advantage + Elemental Buff)
   x (1 - [Ally DMG Cut + Ally Elemental RST])

   x (1 + DMG Range)}
   x DMG Multiplier

• DMG Range is a random integer between -5% and +5%.
• DMG Multiplier is used for abilities.

Burst Damage

= Average DMG 
   x {A + (Burst Multiplier + Burst DMG buffs) + Special Burst DMG up}
   + B (values based on A)

	A	B
Awaken	5,5x	3.000
SSR	4,5x	2.500
SR	3x	2.000
R	2x	2.500
★	+0,5x	-

Notes:

• Burst DMG is soft capped at 1.000.000 DMG, and its buff multiplier is hard capped at +500% multiplier. The former can be increased up to two million with Exceed weapons, Union buff (from Crucible events), abilities and accessories. Any point of damage that goes beyond the soft cap will be reduced by 90%
  • Characters like Uriel or Mithra can bypass the 500% cap by adding to the Special burst DMG up using their respective tokens.

Burst Streak

= Total Burst DMG
   x {1 ÷ (7 - Number of Burst Attacks)}
   x  Element Advantage
   x (1 + Burst Streak Buffs)
