Current damage formula for Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) has been established.
Many components are similar to the original formula from previous games.
Elemental damage and raw damage are now added together before any decimals are
dropped. Sharpness now affects KO values by the same multiple as listed for
raw attack.
| [ATP x TYPE x SHARP x HITZONE / CLASS] + [ELEMENT x SHARP x ELMZONE / 10] = DAMAGE |
| Raw attack power listed in your status and element listed on your weapon. |
