B0. Math stuff:
B1. Basic damage equation:

Final Damage = (((NormalHit + AmpDamage?) * CriticalHit? * [SpecialMults]?) + SplashDamage) * Element[HealthType] * ElementBonus? * Slag

Splash equation:

SplashDamage = (NormalHit * .SplashAmount) * (1 + .GrenadeDamage) * [SpecialMults]

.SplashAmount: A simple multiplier that represents the amount of Splash Damage a weapon has, expressed as a decimal.
For example, 80% Splash Damage would mean 0.8 for this value.
.GrenadeDamage: The total bonus Grenade Damage you have, expressed as a decimal, IF the weapon you’re using has Splash Damage that that benefits from it.
For example, +25% Grenade Damage from Steady and +10.2% from Badass Rank would mean (1 + .25 + .102) = 1.352 for this value.

B2. Elemental:
TVHM:

cyro is being worked on.
ElementBonus?: Any further bonuses to the specific Element you’re using, which means Explosive, Fire, Corrosive, Shock, Cyro or Slag.
Note that this is NOT the same thing as Elemental Effect, Burn, Corrode, or Electrocute Damage bonuses, which only affect Damage over Time effects and NOT the initial hit of your weapon.

ElementBonus? = (1 + .Oz + .Skills + .ClassMod)[/quote]

B3. Cyro damage.

Base damage x 2 x (1.25) x (3.25) =

[QUOTE=Sljm;5127098]Cryo DOT gives +200% Type A Critical Damage.

Cryo DOT gives +200% Explosive Damage (multiplier)

1. Freeze timer lasts for 6 seconds, regardless of enemy type (excluding enemies that can’t be frozen).

2. Frozen enemies are completely immobile for that duration.

3. Enemies do NOT get a normal debuff from being frozen.
   *non-elemental, at least

Weird, right? What the hell, no damage buff while frozen??

Then, comes the really weird stuff.

4. CRITS are massively buffed on frozen enemies.
5. No general change between atmosphere and vacuum.
   The test:
   Nisha. Not spec’d into anything; even Action Skill.

No COMs, Oz kits that buff damage of any kind.

Using a level 50 Jakobs Iron (crit type 2)

Body shots -> 3988 (identical to card listing)

Frozen body shots -> 3988 (no change)

Crits/headshots -> 9969, 12462, 13563

Frozen crits/headshots -> 29299 ~ 32399!!

B4. Critical hit bonuses:

The thread(also has weapons bonuses)

[quote]Type A is the most common, it’s generally what you get when you have a crit bonus.
Type B or “Jakobs type” only comes from a handful of guns, 95% of them Jakobs. Generally considered more valuable (and is often referred to as a “multiplicative” bonus.)
Type C is not a bonus as it’s impact is negative. Assault rifles have it.

Crit Damage = Damage * 2 * (1 + .TypeA) * (1 + .TypeB) / (1 + .TypeC)

B5. Athena’s aspis formula:
The thread

[quote]Final Damage = ((Base Damage + (Absorbed Damage x 2)) x (1 + Invictus) x (1 + Clear!) x (1 + Grenade buffs from Bar + Oz kit + luneshine) x (1 + Omega Senshu)) x (1 + Maelstrom)

So if you have a com that gives you +6 to OS and you are wearing a Bomber com, grenade buff shine, and 10% bar, and you fall into fight for your life here is the max damage it can do as far as I know.

Final Damage = ((940 + 53,999) x (1.35) x (1.4) x (1.65) x (1.7)) x (4.996)
Final Damage = 1,455,116[/quote]

B6. Athena’s gun damage:
Current thread on it
So with Athena’s gun skills here is how they fit in

NormalHit = (Base * (1 + .GunDamage))

GunDamage = (Ephodos + Path to Glory + Gun Kata + Relics + Com + Bar)

Athena has 2 special multipliers both Omega Senshu and Tear and they are seperate.

Lastly Maelstrom is Elemental bonus. So if you work them all in they look like this.

Final Damage = (((Gun Damage x (1 + Ephodos + Path to Glory + Gun Kata) x (Critical Hit)) x (1 + Tear) x (1 + Omega-Seunshu) + splash damage) x Elemental bonus x (1 + Maelstrom stacks)

Now the numbers I got were not 100% matching there was a small margin of error when every I tried to figure maelstrom so I’m guessing the 0.4% has more decimals to it. I am also guessing that tear and OS come before splash like most multiplicative buffs do, but I do have to test it since reaper was the rule breaker and OS is much like reaper.

B7. Athena’s Melee formula:

Final Damage = (Base + Roid) * (1 + Weapon Accessory) * (1 + Omega-Senshu) * (1 + Crit Bonus) * ( 1 + Blood Rush Dash) * {1 + Clarity of Purpose + Gun Kata + Blood Rush + Com + BAR + Oz Kit}

The thread

moxxi drinks are 30% additive and enemies with a cryo dot add a 250% multiplicative bonus.

B8. Claptrap’s gun damage formula:

Final Damage = ((((Gun Damage * (1 + Best Buds 4 Life + Kick Him While He’s Up + High Fives Guys +Gun type Subroutines + Blue Shell + Death Machine + One Last Thing)/(1 + Subroutine penalty)) * ((1 + Fuzzy Logic + Kick Him While He’s Up + Type A) * (Type B) / (Type C)) * (1 + Elemental Subroutine) + splash damage) * Elemental bonus

[Derch (Where's lucky?)]

I linked my DDD threads to this, also I updated the gun damage thread and ported it over here, and also ported the skills guide. Craw, I meant Captain Hindsight also ported Athena’s melee formula thread so you can update those links.

[Blutfatal (Min/Maxing and Flakker god)]

I’ll start working on them after I port all the other threads over and finish writing a DnD campaign I just started two days ago.

If that picture that was posted on facebook says anything

[Sljm (Really, really, ridiculously good-looking)]

Damage modifiers for TPS

Enjoy.

Fun fact, Criticals with Explosive damage benefit from both the 3x multiplier and the +200% Type A Critical Damage.

[Blutfatal (Min/Maxing and Flakker god)]

Thats I’ll add that after I finish formetting things.

Clappy’s skill guide has been ported over: [DDD] Fragtrap’s skills for you!

[Blutfatal (Min/Maxing and Flakker god)]

Awesome…
