THE DAMAGE EQUATION

Disclaimer: this awesome equation can only be calculated if you have level 4 allocation of "War chant of light" If I could get a couple of helpers to see the equation adaptable to different level of attack, I will be able to post the update.


Ok let's get started. The only 3 thing you need are your base damage, you profile attributed willpower and Dominion Realm Willpower.
This final version of the Equation has been tested and certified by the fellow mages of the Pacific Battlegroup. This info SHALL be used by both teams to promote a fair sense of knowledge.
This Equation is able to work for levels 5 to 22. According to this chart:
5.     100
6.     120
7.     140
8.     160
9.      180
10.   200
11.     220
12.    240
13.     260
14.     280
15.      300
16.       320
17.        340
18.         360
19.         380
20.       400
21.           420
22.         440
(if anyone could format this chart please do, it currently looks ugly

Alright so now you've been wondering where's the Equation? Well, here it is!

{Base+[(S+B)•2]} -10 =The marked number

And the terms are:
Base: number indicated by your level according to the chart.
S: your attributed willpower able to be seen in your profile.
B: your Dominion Realm Willpower buff able to be seen at your main gateway.

You can use a calculator, but it can be done in your head.
Also, you might be wondering what's up with the -10? Well, during Grey Area's time period when the gave out updates, they have altered our damage input so it's slightly lower. And I have confirmed this equation by averaging 100 casts of mine and comparing it to my hypothesis. They are:


1          658
          663
           640
           668
            659
             641
            638
            633
            649
   10         645.         6494
            665
             676
               670
              639
              660
              644
              639
              644
              666
 20             664.         6567
              671
              655
              646
              642
              644
              679
              670
              643
              668
 30             677.      6595
              652
              673
              649
              667
              679
              644
              679
              667
              673
40           650.      6633
              649
              654
              659
              654
              650
              646
              633
              677
              676
50           652.      6550
              646
              690
              669
              674
              654
              679
              649
              641
              646
60              654     6602
              649
              649
              650
              664
              644
              674
              658
              668
              653
70              651.       6560
              642
              667
              670
              665
              674
              637
              674
              634
              662
 80             641.     6566
              664
              671
              665
              674
              657
              661
              674
              633
              641
90              670.     6610
              673
              652
              649
              633
              656
              678
              661
              678
              665
 100             640.     6585

Total:  65,762 divide by 100=
657.62 ---> ~658

Also, this Equation can ALSO calculate your Critials and Lowballs
For Criticals: {Base+[(S+B)•2]} +190 =The marked number

For Lowballs: {Base+[(S+B)•2]} -210 =The marked number

Finally big thanks who help out find that every point of willpower is +2 damage, discovering the base damage for levels, and for the testers! I would like to credit myself for creating this equation and my friends whose always there for me <3

A little re-invention of the wheel, but good research.

Yep thats close enough. This is the accurate Damage Equation. However what is missing is the real base damage, that is, when War Chant is at level 1. I believe that with this there will be builds not maxing out war chant and following up on support as well.

I'll have that looked into DeltaChange. thanks
And thank you Anvar

Can be simplified to 20L+2W-10 where L=level of player and W=total willpower
