Combat

From Tales of Midya Wiki

Combat comprises several skills in this game. Attack(str/dex), Defense(con for hp, str for blocking, dex for avoiding, int/cha/wis for overcoming cognitive impairment), Ranged(str/dex), Magic(int/cha/wis), and Prayer(wis)

the first thing to be determined in combat is if you can hit/if you are hit. Your hit chance is rolled against the enemies defense with a 5% buffer for hitting an incredibly evasive enemy or 5% for missing a stationary enemy, alternatively, 5% for an exceptionally accurate enemy missing you or a blind enemy hitting you.

Melee/ranged hit chance = Weapon hit + dex/weapon modifier + str/weapon modifier

Spell hit chance = Spell level/rank + int/spell modifier + wis/spell modifier + cha/spell modifier

Physical Defense = parry chance + dodge chance + block chance

Magical Defense = resist and dex based avoidance rolls
