Everyone who completes this video earns a degree in Lost Kingdomsology from the University of MooseEatsBear.

This, hopefully, is the end-all-be-all breakdown of the Lost Kingdoms II Damage Formula. I hope this is of use to you all in your playthroughs! I am very glad to finally have this behemoth of a project off my shoulders - it's been hovering for years. I kept trying to record clips for it and I would have to start over when we discovered something new. The Affinity Floats were discovered last week! And I narrated this whole dang thing in one take, I should learn how to edit video, omg.

I realized after completing the presentation, I had not gone back and done a summary section. I believed re-viewing sections would suffice, so I neglected to write a summary into my script. Regardless, I will paste a brief writeup of the damage formula here:

(((Base Attack x Z-Effect) x [[Affinity Bonus in RunE II ONLY]] x Wizard or Apsaras x Dryad and Undine and Gnome and Salamander x Coal Treant or Dark Treant) - Defense) x Element Match-up

Thank you to my friend ‪@no_uh306‬ for making the Chameleus bit at the end of the video, very funny, loved it.

I only caught a few moments where I misspoke - once where I said 15 instead of 1.5 when discussing the Z-Effect/Mummy/Dryad clip near the beginning, and once in the Chameleus segment where I said Chameleus did 17 damage, I meant 18. Thankfully all the math was written on screen, so it should be clear that I was just misspeaking.

Thank you so much for watching.

P.S., if you caught the Stephen Jay Gould reference, you get a cookie!
