Damage Scaling

---

Damage Scaling is a mechanic which reduces the damage done by each hit in a combo as the combo accumlates more hits. This mechanic exists to reduce the overall damage done by combos and attacks to keep them from killing too easily.

There are a lot of moving parts to damage calculations making for a fairly complex formula as seen below

Attack Damage = XF Damage Boost · Character Damage Boost · Opponent Damage Reduction · Maximum(TAC Damage Boost · Throw Damage Penalty · Scaling FactorNumber of Hits, Minimum Scaling)

XF Damage Boost

---

There is a flat multiplier applied to the damage of an attack when in X-Factor. The value is non-universal and varies per character but is always between 0.10 (10%) to 1.00 (100%). This damage boost is applied after the scaled damaged is calculated.

Character Specific Damage Boost

Similar to the X-Factor Damage boosts a few characters have damage boosts tied to states, installs, or specific moves that apply a flat damage boost after scaled damage is already calculated.

• Dante Devil Trigger (214XX) has a 1.15 (15%) damage boost during the duration of Devil Trigger.
