Defense

Defense is a damage absorption modifier applied to each damage type upon taking damage. This applies both to the player and to enemies.

How Defense works

As of App 1.10 there's 5 breakpoints for the defenses. The calculation for damage against defense formula are as follows:

• If DEF >8x ATK, deal damage equal to 0.10 * ATK
• If DEF >ATK, deal damage equal to (19.2/49 * (ATK/DEF-0.125)^ 2 +0.1) * ATK
• If DEF >0.4x ATK, deal damage equal to (-0.4/3 * (ATK/DEF-2.5)^ 2 +0.7) * ATK
• If DEF >0.125x ATK, deal damage equal to (-0.8/121 * (ATK/DEF-8)^ 2 +0.9) * ATK
• If DEF <0.125x ATK, deal damage equal to 0.90 * ATK
