I've made base skill damages display without any modifiers simply for the purposes of simplicity and consistency; the passive effects of boomerang step and meso mastery are found in the total sequence damage row formula =(2*L54)*L$64*L$65*L$66*(1-L$67)+L56*L$64*(L$65+0.25+0*Options!$H$13)*L$66*(1-L$67)+L58*L$64*(L$65+0.6+0.12*Options!$H$13)*L$66*(1-L$67). Shown in bold are where the passive effects of boomerang step and meso mastery come into play.
There is a mistake there actually, and it has to do with adding the passive effects additively with the neutral element modifier. Thanks for helping me catch that, I'll fix that in the next update!
I will reply here since you somewhat ignored one of my questions in my PM yesterday.
How did you include ME into the SB+BS combination? I don't exactly understand 'excel-speak,' but from what I gather from the equation above and correlating them to their cells I understand this:
1) You used BS twice (netting an average of 6.4 coins) and SB once (9.6) to be able to ME (15 coins). What happens to the leftover 1 coin??
2) Unless I am reading this wrong, which is entirely possible, you added +25% to SB and +60% to ME. Is that correct? (It should be x%, that's why I'm asking)
3) This one is more tricky, because I would like to see the math for this one for sure. You have included defence cancel and reflect for the monster calculations. What cell shows the addition of extra damage a Shadower would receive by using SB to collect coins or by charging assassinate for a near instant 8m damage once the monster has left the defence/reflect mode. Granted, most shadowers would not be able to hit through reflect, but for defence this is common practice to collect coins (ex. Zak/CZak).
Again, I don't use excel too often so I may be reading some of this wrong. Thanks for clarifying!
Edit: On #3 I don't literally mean extra damage, but in comparison to other classes. While most classes would sit and wait during WDEF ups, Shadowers are busy using SB to build up more coins for ME. That is what my question is referencing.
