Base Attack

Your base attack base damage is determined by (in order of influence):

1. Strength (Dexterity if wielding a range-type weapon)
2. Base Level
3. Job Level
4. Dexterity

Magic Attack

Your magic attack is determined by (in order of influence):

1. Intelligence
2. Base Level
3. Job Level
4. Dexterity

Weapon Attack

The weapons power increases your damage by boosting base Attack. Max damage is base Attack boosted by WATK% (eg: a knife with 50 ATK increases ATK by 50%), while min damage is BATK boosted by WATK/2%. It also increases your MATK, but by a reduced factor based on weapon type:

• Staffs: MATK +80%*WATK
• Books: MATK +40%*WATK
• Other: MATK +20%*WATK

Defence/Magic Defence

• DEF2 is determined by (order of influence):
  • Vitality
  • Agility
  • Base Level
  • Job Level
• MDEF2 is determined by (order of influence):
  • Intelligence
  • Vitality
  • Base Level
  • Job Level
• DEF2/MDEF2 fluctuate on every attack by +/-25%
• DEF2 reduces opponent's max attack before skill modifiers
• DEF2 is applied before DEF reductions
• DEF2 cannot reduce max attack below the base attack value

Hit/Flee

• HIT is determined by (order of influence):
  • Dexterity
  • Intelligence
  • Base Level
  • Job Level
• FLEE is determined by (order of influence):
  • Agility
  • Dexterity
  • Base Level
  • Job Level
• Minimum damage is BATK + (WATK + Hit)/2% (eg: 100 Hit= +50% min damage)
• Attack accuracy is 70% + HIT - FLEE
• Flee reduces attacker's base Attack
• HIT can be increased by using low level weapons (see equipment section)
• FLEE can be increased by using light armor (see equipment section)

Critical/Lucky Dodge

• Criticals do not ignore defence, only halve it
• Criticals/lucky dodge don't guarantee a hit/miss on attacks that can miss, instead they give +100 hit/flee respectively
• Chance to land a critical is reduced by target's lucky dodge (eg: if target has 50% lucky dodge, your critical% is halved)
• Lucky dodge can trigger against skills (including magic) at a 75% rate
• Lucky dodge against magic works by reducing the number of hits received
• Criticals can trigger on all skills, but on those skills that are not designed to do critical their rate is 75%
• Target will flash red on a skill-critical
• Target will flash green on a skill-lucky dodge

Attack Speed

• Each weapon has a base ASPD dependant on type and class proficiency
• The the base ASPD is reached when STR, DEX, and AGI are equal
• The max ASPD is twice the base (ie: half the delay)
• The slowest natural ASPD is half the base
• The current ASPD number represents "number of attacks you can do in 100 seconds." E.g.: an ASPD of 180 means "1.8 attacks/sec." This change is meant to make it easier to judge relative ASPD changes (eg: a boost from 185 to 186 in the old scale is much greater than a boost from 120 to 121).

Casting Times

• Casting and delay times are split between 'weapon' and 'magic' types:
  • Weapon Skills
    • Cast time is determined by STR and DEX (for ranged weapons it's DEX and AGI)
    • Delay times are determined by STR and DEX+AGI (STR is the one that reduces it)
  • Magic Skills
    • Cast time is determined by INT / DEX
    • Delay times are determined by INT and DEX+AGI (INT is the one that reduces it)
  • Misc Skills
    • "Misc" type skills use weapon cast and magic delay adjustments
• Delay time adjustments never go above 100%
• When a skills cast time is less than 2 secs, attack is auto-resumed after the casting is finished.
• When a skills cast time is over 2 secs, the delay is halved for all other skills except that one (ie: 50% delay time to use any other skill)

Damage Delay

• When being hit, characters not just recoil from the attack, but also suffer a walking speed penalty of 50% for a short moment
• There is no recoil against attacks from the front
• The duration of the recoil and speed penalty can both be decreased by raising AGI

Cast Cancel Resist

• Every character has a base cast cancel resist of 70% (95% for uninterruptible skills). Thus their Cast Cancel Rate (CCR) is 100-70 = 30%
• Each received attack while casting has an increasing Cast Cancel Rate (critical hits count for triple the effect) until cast is finished or interrupted
• The factors that increase resist are:
  • Lucky Dodge
  • Luck/Lv (ie: LUK >= Base level is max resist)
  • 'Casting cannot be interrupted' items reduce CCR by 80% (non-stackable, -50% in GvG maps)
  • MvP monsters have an innate -80% to CCR
  • Boss monsters have an innate -50% to CCR
  • Pets have an innate -50% to CCR

Miscellaneous

Max HP/SP are determined by the average base & job levels.
• Max HP is capped at 99,999 and max SP at 9,999.
• Damage is capped at 9999
• Damage is also capped to 50% of the target's life (non monsters)
• Max stat points is 200
• Weight capacity is determined by class, STR, base level, an job level, maxes at 9999
• Natural healing speed is affected by weight (50% -> 25% slower regen)
• Walking speed is affected after 50% overweight
• When attacking someone from behind (or the sides) their FLEE and DEF2 are reduced, the penalty depends from where the attack comes from (character is facing north):
