Summary

Weapons with innate Status damage apply their status only, on average, every three hits. Bowguns with Status shots, Bows with Status Phials, and KO and Exhaust Damage not from SA Exhaust Phial do not follow this rule, and apply their status 100% of the time.

How To Use

Yet Another Damage Calculator Unite (YADCU) is a combination database and calculator, designed to make damage calculation and comparison easier. Please take the calculations made here with a grain of salt, as it's hard to guarantee 100% accuracy when all you have are 75 stones and an Aptonoth for testing.

Standard Calculation

Step 1) Select a Weapon from the Weapon tab, or fill the stats in yourself. Select your weapon type from the Search fields, and click on one of the table's rows to fill in the fields with that info.
Step 2) Select a Move from the Moves tab. This works similarly to the Weapon tab, where you can click on the table row to fill in the fields, or you can fill them in yourself.
Step 3) Select the currently active modifiers. Note that this is different from the armor skills in two ways. The first is that only damage-related skills are considered, so things like Razor Sharp or Recoil Down +1 won't exist in the modifier list. The second is that it's the armor skills which are active at the time of damage calculation. Weakness Exploit, for example, shouldn't active on hitzones of 45 or below (though the calculator won't stop you from putting that in).
Step 4) Select the Monster stats from the Monster tab. Click on the Monster Search table's rows to fill in the hitzone and quest data with the appropriate info, then click on those tables' rows to fill in the fields.
Step 5) If you have the fields filled out, click the "Update Parameters" button in the Calculate tab. This will fill in the fields with the correct info. Once you're ready, you can then click on either the "Calculate Output" button, for calculating your damage output, or the "Calculate All" button, to calculate your actual damage.
Scroll down the left side of the Weapon section. You'll find a little prompt down there that'll ask you your forte and damage type. Select that after you've chosen your weapon to get the total attack power. Also, make sure to switch to the correct damage type for both weapon and move, depending on which weapon type you're using. Note that the stats added are max level stats, so adjust based on your own Prowler's current stats, and also remember to select your weapon first.

Switching Games

Did you know that you can switch games, changing the dataset and behavior of certain tabs? Go to the Options tab and mess around in there. There's a lot of helpful stuff there.

Status

Step 1) You can click Update after performing the standard four steps, or you can fill in the fields yourself.
Step 2) Depending on your choices, the thresholds, hitzone values, and modifiers will automatically fill in by themselves, even if you switch to another Status.
Step 3) Either click "Calculate Status Output" for your potential output, or "Calculate Status Damage" for the amount of hits that it will take to inflict the status.

Farming

Have you ever wanted that one item but you didn't know which quest or monster to do? The Farming Tab is here to help! Simply choose an item from the list (only GU is supported at the moment), enter your parameters, and Analyze away!
