look at this battle i have 6 attack but the knight only have 4 attack
http://www.heroeswm.com/warlog.php?warid=471119459
so how come both our heroes does the same amount of damage? |
anybody? |
sometimes u hit more or less =p
and wait over 5 hours next time |
oh ok |
Attack stat doesn't really affect hero damage it seems. watch some lv4 hunt replays, knight hero with 4 or 6 attack both has 8-12 damage range, knight with 9 attack only has 9-13 damage range.
the damage is probably also affected by combat level, faction, artifacts equipped, and talent. most barb at lv 5 seem to have 10-14 damage regardless of attack stat, but they can do 22-30 damage with thrusting might and probably a good sword. |
so exactly what does attack do if it doesn't increase damage? |
Hero's attack stat let your army do more damages, generally 5% per 1 point of attack. Your 6 attack will allow your troops to do up to 30% more damage than if you have 0 attack.
it's slightly different when defense is higher than attack, you can find the exact formula in 2nd page of this thread.

It is added to the attack value of your troops.

hero's attack and def stat are added to your troops' stats.
But i found nowhere a formula/tip on how much damage does the hero deal, it's not totally independent on the stats since i noticed same lvl heroes of same factions dealing different damages |
for every attack point above your targets defense you do +5% damage.
So if your troop has 9 attack and you have 6, the troop has 15 attack,
on a troop that has 10 defense it does 125% damage. On a troop with 27 (like a treant) defense it deals 40% damage. |
10
Take note the calculation for higher defense is not 5% damage reduction per higher defense.
In the example, 15 Attack against 27 Defense Treants, who has 12 points higher defense. The damage done is 1 / (1 + 12*5%) = 1 / 1.6 = 62.5 %
12 points of higher defense will reduced damage by 37.5%, about 3% per higher defense point. Mathematically high defense has diminishing effect, and 20 points of higher Defense over Attack does not reduce damage to 0%. |
i found that at lv 5, 8 attack for hero gives you 10-14, while anything less gives u 9-13 for knights |
