AuthorAttack Parameter, what's the final effect?
So if I use erudition and put +4 Attack Points what's the effect?

Current Attack is at 30 Assume. With erudition it'll be 34. What will be the damage difference in %?
Few days ago I asked a similar question. Hope this helps.

I believe that the final damage difference will vary.

>>If "Attack" (A) of the attacking stack is bigger than "Defence" (D) of the defending stack, then
Damage = N * R(min, max) * [1 + 0,05 (A-D) ] * [1 - 3*Y/100]

Let's say your 100 sprites had 30 attack. So their damage to a 10 defense neutral will be -

100*2*[1 + 1] = 400.
If attack was 34 instead, then
100*2*[1 + 1.2] = 440. Clearly the increase in damage is 10%, and not 5% as it may seem to be.

At the same time, if the 30 attack sprites were attacking someone with 20 defense, then -

100*2*[1 + 0.5] = 300.
With 34 atk,
100*2*[1 + 0.7] = 340
Clearly, damage increase % is more than 10%, (~13%).

So final effect cannot be calculated in general, since the damage depends largely on (A-D)/20 rather than simply A.

Thus, damage increase would be different for enemies having different defense. It will also be different for your troops having different attack, attacking same enemy.

Eg, in the first case.

Let's say your 100 Efk have attack 40, and are hitting 10 defense.

100*[3-5]*[1 + 1.5] = 750-1250
With 44 atk,
100*[3-5]*[1 + 1.7] = 810-1350.
As you can see, damage increase is less than 10% for both, as compared to the 10% in sprites.

Just know that damage increase is dependent on both original attack and percentage increase in attack, rather than simple increase in attack.

Regards

P.S
Ignore if any miscalcs ;)
attack parameters affects the most on those stacks of troops that with high number, for example, 100 guardian with extra 1 boost of attack parameter would be a great boost ,of course it needed incorporate with attack talent(the one add min and max damage)
The final effect is +4 Attack in this bloody formula :

That said, the final damage difference will vary depending on your enemy.
In most situations you can use this simple formula:
+4 attack = +20% damage

But, as others said, it depends on the enemy.
