<strong>Explaining Combat - A Nutshell</strong><br/><br/>Presumably everyone understands ACV and DCV.  If not, I'll go back and explain that.<br/><br/>Damage is calculated via the following formula:<br/><br/>[Weapon level] * [Damage Multiplier] + ACV<br/><br/>If your Weapon level is 4, your Damage Multiplier is 5, and your ACV is 6, you calculate 4*5+6=26.<br/><br/>Armor subtracts directly from this value; any remaining damage (unless stopped with Force Fields, Shields or similar) subtracts from HP.
