Introduction

This is a list of relative skill strength. As with any damage form in the game, everything is measured relative to a normal attack with a melee weapon in a neutral armor.

The Nerd Tab is intended for anyone who would like to verify my calculations, or see how the number has been reached.

For a better understanding of the different skill types, see the Skill Types page.

Assumptions

  • For Weapon Based Skills and Normal Attack Modifiers Blood Blades/Zerker Blades are assumed.
  • For Normal Attack Skills nothing is assumed.
  • For Spells / Spell-Based Skills, the strongest corresponding Spellbooster Weapon is assumed -
    • Fire: Arcane Cutlass of Combustion
    • Water: Tsunami Pen
    • Wind: Arcane Cutlass of Gales
    • Ice: Arctic Athame
    • Earth: Terra Bloodzerker's Sword
    • Energy: Dynamancer's Bloodblade/Voltaic Bloodzerker's Sword
    • Light: Arcane Cutlass of Radiance
    • Other Elements: Adventurer Figure - unless stated otherwise
  • Bloodzerker and Subrace Armors list in their entries when a Weapon Skill is used, and which one it is.
    • Additionally for Bloodzerker Armors the matching elemental Bloodzerker's Blade is assumed when Zerker Blade is listed, i.e. Terra Bloodzerker is paired with Terra Bloodzerker's Blade.
  • Elemental Wizard Robes refers to the elemental versions of Wizard Robes. These entries assume that an Elemental Robe is used with the corresponding Burst Spell and Cutlass/Athame under favorable conditions, e.g. Using Pyromancer's Robes with Destruction Burst and Arcane Cutlass of Combustion vs. a monster with Fire as its highest elemental resistance. Since only some elements have a cutlass/athame, take this with a grain of salt.
  • Angelic Robes assumes the use of Creation Burst and Arcane Cutlass of Radiance vs. a monster with Light as its highest elemental resistance.
  • Brilhado Necromancer Robes assumes the use of Destruction Burst and Sila's Staff vs. a monster with Darkness as highest its elemental Resistance.
  • Frozen Dragonslayer assumes an enemy with 200% Void Resistance.
  • Legion Doomknight assumes an enemy with its Ice Resistance > Darkness Resistance

The list assumes the use of the Combat Type appropriate booster pet & guest, and a stat regime appropriate to the pure build you're using.

The Multiplier indicates how much melee power the attack is worth. A *2 multiplier means it deals the damage of 2 normal attacks with a melee weapon in a neutral armor.

The list assumes a pure build and therefore ignores how items interact with stat changes and should be taken with a slight grain of salt, but should generally give a good reference point.

Instructions

The lists are already sorted by strength. If you want to make comparisons within a specific Damage Type category, click on Damage Type once, then hold Shift and click twice on Multiplier. This will sort it by strongest skills per Damage Type category.
