Example ,rank 10,200 Attack Power,100 Dexterity

4 050 damage before the target's defenses

Dexterity contribution: 100 × 150% = 150,

Skill damage: 1 000 + 300 × (10 − 1) = 3 700

Damage before defenses: 200 + 150 + 3 700 = 4 050

Rounded means to the nearest whole number. Exact halves go to the even number, so 2.5 becomes 2.

The target's Magic Resist reduces this damage by 0.05% per point, up to 90%. Each point of the target's Magic Resist adds 0.05% to its chance to resist the hit outright. Each 1% of the caster's Accuracy subtracts 1% from that chance. Each level the target is above the caster adds 0.5%, and each level below subtracts 0.5%, up to 10% either way. The chance stays between 0% and 90%. See resistance and avoidance, the damage steps and moving targets and backstabs.
