Basic Damage Calculations

sadly, still work in progress

• Damage = (Power * WeaponAttack * SkillCoefficient) / Armor
  • WeaponAttack is a uniformly distributed random number within the weapon's range. Note that some skills have their own "internal" weapons and do not use the equipped weapon to determine their damage.
  • SkillCoefficient is a per skill scaling factor.
  • Armor is the sum of your opponent's Toughness and Defense (Game term for Armor rating provided by... armor).
  • All decimals are dropped at the final calculation.

PvP Lobby Golem armor:

• Light have 1084
• Medium have 1000
• Heavy have 1300

(estimates, but fits my data well)

Tooltip Damage Calculation

sadly, still work in progress

• TooltipDamage = (MaxWeaponAttack * SkillCoefficient * Power / 916)
  • MaxWeaponAttack is the maximum of a level-appropriate weapon for the skill.
  • For skills that are based off of "internal" weapons, the tooltip damage is not reliable.
  • Mostly accurate. There are differences of less than a percent I can't explain; anyone with more precise calculations is welcome to explain/correct.

L80 Mesmer Skill Information

note: writing this stuff down on wiki until I can move it to proper pages. note2: all tooltip damage was calculated from power 1919. Ugh I knew I should have just listed the coefficients.

Illusion and clone skill damage are not based off of weapon damage - tooltip damages are very misleading in many cases. I will list any tooltip damage given, as well as the calculated 'tooltip' damage for that skill (ie based off top end of theoretical weapon range), with (very) approximate cooldowns.
