• Normal attacks have 3 soft caps; 350k, 450k and 550k, and the damage is halved each time you reach each cap.
• Vigoras is hard capped at 100%, "Other buffs" are hard capped at 300%.
• Yes, the Weapon Skill is Vigoras and the buff of Himes is called Vigor but both mean the same.
• In general, enemy defense is 10.
• With (Pure Evil) Nyarlathotep and her Primordial Fear, you can add × (1 + Wound). Only for her
  • In the Specific use case when Bracelet Set is used in Application, it is added to the same Frame as Wound, Byakko DMG Buffs

Damage Taken

= Round {Enemy ATK
   x (1 + Enemy ATK Buffs)
   x (Enemy Elemental Advantage + Elemental Buff)
   x (1 - [Ally DMG Cut + Ally Elemental RST])
   ÷ (Ally DEF(10) + [Soul Master Bonus DEF ÷ 10])
   ÷ (1 + Assist DEF + DEF Buff + Accessory DEF + Mastery Passive)
   x (1 + DMG Range)}
   x DMG Multiplier

Notes:

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

Burst Damage

   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	1.500
★	+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, 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.

   x {1 ÷ (7 - Number of Burst Attacks)}
