Formula

The damage formula for Soul Breaker is quite unique as its based on both ATK and INT:

Damage = INT * 5 * Skill Level + RND(500, 1000) + ATK * ATK ratio

• The physical portion of the skill is affected by DEF and FLEE, and elemental modifiers.
  • Takes on the elemental property of your weapon (if you are dual wielding, it takes on the element of the Right Hand).
  • Applies any defense-bypassing weapons such as Ice Pick or Combat Knife. Ice Pick's damage mods apply as well.
• The INT portion of the skill always hits, regardless of the amount of HIT the caster has, and is not affected by DEF, FLEE, or elemental modifiers.
  • Thus, if the physical portion misses, only the damage from the INT portion is applied.
  • This portion of the damage is non-elemental, meaning it will do 100% damage regardless of the enemy's element.
• Neither part of the damage is increased by +% damage modifiers, thus the only modifiers increasing damage are cards or equipment that increase INT or ATK.
• If dual wielding, then the cards of both weapons factor in, but if using a weapon and a shield/nothing in the left hand, then only the right hand's cards increase damage.

Notes

• The skill is considered a ranged physical attack, thus it is completely blocked by Pneuma.
• Enchant Deadly Poison does not affect Soul Breaker's damage in any way.
• Status cards' effects do not carry.
• Ice Pick and Combat Knife affect only the physical part.
• Items that allow your attacks to bypass the target's defense, such as Combat Knife and Ceaser's Sword, apply in either hand.
• When dual-wielding and casting Soul Breaker, you are not penalized for the lack of Right-Hand Mastery or Left-Hand Mastery skills.
• When dual-wielding, the ATK value of your support weapon will not contribute to Soul Breaker's damage. Only ATK cards will have an effect.
