Attack Power + Skill damage

Example ,rank 5,200 Attack Power

325 damage before the target's defenses

Skill damage: 25 + 25 × (5 − 1) = 125

Damage before defenses: 200 + 125 = 325

The target's Armor Class reduces this damage by 0.05% per point, up to 90%. Physical hits can also be blocked or missed. See resistance and avoidance, the damage steps and moving targets and backstabs.
