Meteor Blow's Damage Multiplier

I collected this data by letting myself get hit by Meteor Blow without defending, using Shade, etc.. The target of each attack is bolded.

Trial 1:

  • Felix: 303 HP, 096 resistance, 171 damage
  • Piers: 288 HP, 087 resistance, 246 damage
  • Jenna: 358 HP, 114 resistance, 170 damage

Trial 2:

  • Felix: 303 HP, 096 resistance, 097 damage
  • Piers: 288 HP, 087 resistance, 172 damage
  • Jenna: 358 HP, 114 resistance, 242 damage

Trial 3:

  • Felix: 303 HP, 096 resistance, 171 damage
  • Piers: 288 HP, 087 resistance, 244 damage

Trial 4:

  • Felix: 303 HP, 096 resistance, 241 damage

I had some trouble finding the multiplier from this data, though. If I use the formula currently on the Summons page, then 0.3475 is too low for Felix's first data point and too high for Piers's third data point. Also, in order to account for Piers's first and third data points, the multiplier needs to be something other than an integer divided by 100 (e.g. 0.40, 0.03, etc.). These inconsistencies lead me to suspect one of the following:

  • The formula I'm using (on the Summons page) is incorrect, possibly because
    • Agatio's attack is taken into account.
    • some variable is randomized somewhere along the line.
    • the formula has some general error that is usually unnoticeable, but happened to have an effect on this occasion.
  • The data for Agatio's Mars power and/or Meteor Blow's base damage is incorrect. After some brief tinkering with different values, I don't think this is the case.
  • I made an error somewhere.

Does anyone know why there doesn't seem to be a single multiplier value? Thanks. Cheeseoman 00:27, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
