Damage/Defense question

Between your damage and your opponents defense, how does the game determine how much damage you actually do to them?
Same with aim and evasion.
Anyone know what i'm talking about?

I know what you're talking about, but I haven't a clue about the answer o.o

Technically, I think Slimes have a defence of 1, but you do a lot more damage then what is shown in your Character Stats window. So do they have a negative defence? I've had the same question as you for a while, and I've been trying to find out, but I haven't made much progress.

It would take alot of testing to find the damage/defense ratio even then it isn't exact since you do varying damage to an enemy every time you hit it so getting an exact answer is impossible.

I think there is something to do with level too , the wider the gap the more damage you do..

I've tested in PvP, but the damage is nowhere near the damage shown in the char window- DEF

For example, if my char dmg is shown as 700~800, and my opponent's def is 300, I still don't do 400-500 damage. (We tried without greens, and I don't have added STR, and she didn't have added END in free stats, so we needn't factor that in.)

damage = (weapon damage/5 + enhanced damage/6 + base strength/6 + .9 true (free stat) strength) x (player level-enemy level) - .9 (true (free stat defence) + armor defence/10 + base defence/3)

Needs refining, but that's what I've established. Works for EvP as far as I'm concerned and only for enemies lower than you.
