Updated thread to factor in Shields for Edge and criticial hit rate. I am pondering rewriting the attack multiplier section to show which is applied first... as the critical hit factor seems to be applied first.

I've been on an insane roll this week.. and here's the new info.

Apparently race resistant armor reduces the monster's attack power by 1/2.

The simple test is to fight against the monster with a solo character while under Toad/Mini status... compare that damage with the character having a piece of equipment that resists that monster's race.

The damage dealt is obvious... especially when Toad/Mini doubles the attacker's attack power. The race resistant equipment removes that bonus so the monster will be dealing optimal damage.

The math is very simple and straight forward.

Carry on. I've fixed the algo on this post.

Ok, I'm not updating this thread yet (probably needs an overhaul if anything), but the critical hit formula for bows is pretty much like this...

Bow's Attack Power/2 + Arrow's Attack Power + Str/4 + (Bow's Attack Power aka the critical hit bonus)...

This can also be rewritten as...

Bow's Attack Power * 3/2 + Arrow's Attack Power + Str/4
