MOB Def & VIT Data

[aurik]

mob def = your attack the moment that the "high defense" con disappears.


atk < def -> "high defense"
atk < def * 1.25 -> no comment
atk >= def * 1.25 -> "low defense"

(not exactly sure about <= or <...its +/- 1 if my guess above is wrong)

For reference, dweaps have a base def around 340~ (varies on the level they spawn as)

Ah, thanks for the article. I don't quite understand all the connections there (A couple variables I couldn't derive myself) but I was able to figure out a lot of it and it makes more sense to me (Especially those tests for Relic WS now). ^^;

If you understand japanese, Studio Gobli have a listing, the other link posted was the calculator.

I did have a small discussion with VXZ regarding the PDIF function on zam.

For PDIF wise, it should be the same, fStr is obviously calculated differently from fStr2 but it does not matter in calculation for normal hits.

To calculate PDIF, you will need:
FLvl = -0.025*(Mob Level - Your Level) *Note: FLvl will not be more than 0.
Lvl Correct Atk/Def Ratio (ADR) = Your Atk/Mob Def + Flvl

If ADR <0.9 :
Min PDif = 0.9 * ADR
Max PDif = ADR

If 0.9 <= ADR <= 1.1 :
Min PDif = 1
Max PDif = 1

ADR > 1.1 :
Min PDif = 1+(2/1.9)*(ADR-1.1)
Max PDif = 1.1+(ADR-1.1)

Edit: SP.

I'm not so sure about those ranges. I will go into more detail tomorrow, I'm tired.

The latest studio gobli info as translated by VXZ for the low/high def/evasion boundaries is:

Let AttackDefense Ratio = Your attack / monster defense.

/check will display the ratio without taking into account Level Correction function
If AttackDefenseRatio < 1.00 → High Defense
If AttackDefenseRatio > 1.25 → Low Defense
Other ratio range → No defense info displayed

Notes:
Attack/defense ratio will be calculated using 2 digit rounding.

Accuracy Information
Accuracy /check is based on the accuracy of weapon held in your Main slot

If your accuracy < Monster evasion-30 → High Evasion
If your accuracy ≥ Monster evasion+10 → Low evasion
Others → No evasion info displayed

I found this stuff on the Gobli website once too but it was a lot harder to read due to the language barrier.
