Damage

Shield Boomerang's base damage is based on the caster's base ATK from stats, shield refine, and shield weight, and follows this formula:

Base damage = Base ATK + 4 * Shield Refine + Shield Weight

• The ATK ratio is then applied to the base damage, as well as any %-based damage modifier cards.
• And lastly, the increased damage from Crusader Spirit is applied if applicable.
• Note that Shield Boomerang calculates reduction from DEF before the skill ratio is applied.

Notes

• Requires user to have a shield equipped.
• Shield Boomerang carries status effects from cards or special weapons like Sword Breakers and Mail Breakers.
• The damage dealt from Shield Boomerang is always Neutral.
• Anything that adds or effects weapon-type ATK does not add damage; base weapon ATK, weapon upgrades, Mastery Skills, Spirit Spheres, Provoke, Magnum Break bonus, Impositio Manus, etc.
