Final Fantasy Legend, The (USA) - EXCALIPUNCH EDITION.txt

// R5.4.13

Experimental version for debugging Excalibur (0E) and Martial Arts (1D) formulae.

Modifications:

- Change HAMMER's formula to 0E, primary value to 200, and secondary value to 0.
- Change RAPIER's formula to 0E, primary value to 0, and secondary value to 100.
- Change LONG's formula to 0E, primary value to 8, and secondary value to 8.
- Change SABER's formula to 0E, primary value to 1, and secondary value to 100.
- Change PUNCH's secondary data to 255.

Expected results:

- HAMMER will either always do ~200 or do ~200-300.
- RAPIER will either always do ~100 or do ~100-150.
- SABER will either always do ~100 or do ~100-150, even if primary value is required to be non-zero.
Which deals variable damage will establish which byte carries the fixed damage, assuming it is a fixed-random split and not a piercing-reducable split.

- LONG will do ~5-10.
By reducing the range drastically, target DEF becomes a major player; this result would show a lack of offensive stat influence or of piercing.

- PUNCH will vary wildly between ~5 and ~250.
This would establish that secondary byte for martial arts is treated as a random range.
