CHANCE TO HIT
100 * AR / (AR + DR) * 2 * alvl / (alvl + dlvl)
AR = Attack Rating; alvl = Level of Attacker; dlvl = Level of Defender; DR = Defense Rating
Note: Attacks will never have less than 5% chance to hit nor more than 95% chance to hit.
Final chance to hit is truncated.
Example
I have an AR of 10,000. I am lvl85 (attacker) and the Defender is lvl90 with a defense of 5000
= 100 * AR / (AR + DR) * 2 * alvl / (alvl + dlvl)
= 100 * 10000/ (10000 + 5000) * 2 * 85/ ( 85 + 90)
= 1000000/(10000 + 5000) * 2 * 85/(85 + 90)
= 1000000/(15000) * 2 * 85/(175)
= 1000000/(15000) * 2 * 85/(175)
= 66.667 * 2 * 85/175
= 133.333 * 85/175
= 11333.333/175
= 64.761% chance to hit.
.........................................................................................................................................................
BASE ATTACK RATING
(Your attack rating without +AR or +Ar% from equipment, charms or skills)
= (Dex * 5) - 35 + ClassBonus
The ClassBonus is:
20 for Barbarians and Paladins
15 for Assassins
5 for Amazons and Druids
-10 for Necromancers
-15 for Sorceresses
Example
Any lvl Necromancer with 200 Dex.
= (Dex * 5) - 35 + ClassBonus
= (200 * 5) - 35 + (-10)
= (1000) - 35 + (-10)
= 965 + (-10)
= 955AR
Base Defense Rating
(Your Defense rating without Defense, +Def or +Def% from equipment, charms or skills)
= Dex / 4 (rounding down)
Example
Any lvl char with 179 Dex.
= Dex/4 (rounding down)
= 179/4 (rounding down)
= 44.75 (rounding down)
= 44
.........................................................................................................................................................
CHANCE TO CAUSE KNOCKBACK
Vs. large (eLarge): 32/128 = 25%
Vs. small (eSmall): 128/128 = 100%
everyone else: 64/128 = 50%
.........................................................................................................................................................
CHANCE TO BLOCK
Total Blocking = [(Blocking * (Dexterity - 15)) / (Character Level * 2)]
Blocking = A total of the Blocking on all of your items. (E.g: Guardian Angel, Twitchthroe, Any Shield, Holy Shield)
[] = Round Down
Note: Blocking on shield shown in game is capped at 75% while it may actually be higher.
For a true account of most shields blocking ability... Look here forUnique, Set, and Magical/Rare shields.
\(for magical/rare, add the Blocking % from the suffix to the base blocking)
Note 2: Block chance is divided by 3 after the 75% cap. You can't block more than 25% when running.
Example: A lvl85 Paladin with 100 Dex, Guardian Angel(20%), lvl20 Holy Shield (35%) and a Herald of Zakarum(82%).
Total Blocking = [(Blocking * (Dexterity - 15)) / (Character Level * 2)]
= (20 + 35 + 82 * (100 - 15)) / (85 * 2)
= (20 + 35 + 82 * (85)) / (85 * 2)
= (20 + 35 + 82 * (85)) / 170
= (20 + 35 + 82 * (85)) / 170
= (137 * 85) / 170
= 11645 / 170
= 68.5
= 68% Chance to Block

HIT BLINDS TARGET
Decreases radius of awareness similar to the Necromancer Curse: Dim Vision. The formula is as follows:
Melee Chance = 50 + (Attacker Level + (Bonus - 1) * 4) - Defender Level) * 5
Ranged Chance = ((50 + (Attacker Level + (Bonus - 1) * 4) - Defender Level) * 5)/3
Bonus = Hit Blinds Target acquired from items. Most are +1 but some are +2.
Duration: The level of Dim Vision that's cast on the target is equal to (Chance - Roll)/5+1, max of 20.
E.g:
Lvl15 Amazon wearing Coif of Glory(+1) and a Bow while attacking a lvl20 Monster.
Ranged Chance = ((50 + (Attacker Level + (Bonus - 1) * 4) - Defender Level) * 5)/3
= ((50 + (15 + (1 - 1) * 4) - 20) * 5)/3
= ((50 + (15 + (0) * 4) - 20) * 5)/3
= ((50 + (15 + 0) - 20) * 5)/3
= ((50 + (15 - 20)) * 5)/3
= ((50 - 5) * 5)/3
= (45 * 5)/3
= (225)/3
= 75
This formula is applied to monsters hit by an ITD weapon.
Does not apply to uniques, super uniques, other players or their hirelings, and act bosses.
In effect the defense of the monster is set to zero.
ITD basically disregards the part of the ' chance to hit' formula related to Attack and Defense ratings.
FinalAR = 100 * 2 * mLvl / (mLvl + cLvl)
mLvl - monster level
cLvl - your character level
AR - attack rating
See Chance to Hit Formula for example on how to work it.

OPEN WOUNDS
Damage per frame:
Clvl=1-15: ((9*Clvl+31)/256)) * Modifier
Clvl=16-30: ((18*Clvl-104)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=31-45: ((27*Clvl-374)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=46-60: ((36*Clvl-779)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=61-99: ((45*Clvl-1319)/256) * Modifier
Modifier:
Triggers on a Player with attacker using a Melee Attack: 0.25
Triggers on a Player with attacker using Ranged Attack: 0.125
Triggers on a Boss Monster with attacker using Ranged or Melee: 0.5
Trigger on Other Targets with attacker using Ranged or Melee: 1
Open Wounds has a duration of 200 Frames (8 Seconds) and will reset the timer if reapplied. It's not actual damage but a Negative Life Regenration.
E.g:
Lvl80 Char using melee attack on a normal monster (Other Target)
Clvl=61-99: ((45*Clvl-1319)/256) * Modifier
= ((45*80-1319)/256) * 1
= ((3600-1319)/256)
= (2281/256) * 1
= 8.91015625 * 1
= 8.91015625 Damage per Frame.
For Damage per second, do (Damage per frame * 25)
8.91015625 * 25
= 222.75390625 Damage per second.
.........................................................................................................................................................
CHANCE TO FREEZE
Melee = 50 + (AL + (B*4) - DL) * 5
Ranged = (50 + ((AL-6) + (B*4) - DL) * 5)/3
AL = attacker level
DL = defender level
B = freeze bonus from item (default is 1)
For Freeze Bonus from items, See the item here for Uniques and Sets.
E.g:
Lvl85 Amazon using a Buriza (+3 freezes Target) while attacking a lvl80 Creature.
Ranged = (50 + ((AL-6) + (B*4) - DL) * 5)/3
= (50 + ((85-6) + (3*4) - 80) * 5)/3
= (50 + (79 + (3*4) - 80) * 5)/3
= (50 + (79 + (12) - 80) * 5)/3
= (50 + (11 * 5))/3
= (50 + 55)/3
= 105/3
= 35% Chance to Freeze
Duration:
Freeze length = (Chance - Roll) * 2 + 25 frames
with a minimum length of 25 frames (1 second) and a maximum length of 250 frames (10 seconds)
roll=RND(100) for a range of 0 to 99
E.g:
Same situation but with a roll of 10.
Freeze length = (Chance - Roll) * 2 + 25 frames
= ((35 - 10) * 2) + 25 frames
= (25 * 2) + 25
= 50 +25
= 75 Frames
For conversion from Frames to seconds: Frames/25 = Seconds
= 75/25
= 3 Seconds
AL = attacker level
DL = defender level
B = freeze bonus from item (default is 1)
Axe of Fechmar = 3
Woestave = 1
Iceblink = 1
Sureshrill Frost = 3
Bing Sz Wang = 2
Buriza = 3
Shadowkiller = 2
Frostwind = 4
Nord's Tenderizer = 2 to 4
IK gloves (full set) = 2
Vidala's full set = 1
Cham Rune is now Hit Freezes Target +3
if it's ranged, the AL has a -6 penalty.
if it's ranged, the chance is divided by 3
- As for the duration of the freeze:
freeze length = (chance - roll) * 2 + 25 frames
with a minimum length of 25 frames (1 second) and a maximum length of 250 frames (10 seconds)
roll=RND(100) for a range of 0 to 99
.........................................................................................................................................................
CRUSHING BLOW
Crushing Blow reduces a target's life by a certain fraction:
Normal Monster hit with a melee weapon: 1/4
Normal Monster hit with a ranged weapon: 1/8
Boss/Champion Monster hit with a melee weapon: 1/8
Boss/Champion Monster hit with a ranged weapon: 1/16
Player/Hireling hit with a melee weapon: 1/10
Player/Hireling hit with a ranged weapon: 1/20
2p = 1.5x HP and XP
3p = 2.0x HP and XP
4p = 2.5x HP and XP
5p = 3.0x HP and XP
6p = 3.5x HP and XP
7p = 4.0x HP and XP
8p = 4.5x HP and XP
Crushing Blow does not scale with the amount of players. In 1.10, the game first calculates the Crushing blow in relation to the target's current life
and then divides the CB amount by the correlating number (See the Player's Table found on RTB's Post).
E.g: 8 players would be 450%. So the damage would be divided by 4.5.
Crushing Blow is affected by Physical resistances, but only if that number is positive.
The % of Crushing Blow will be added from each item for 1 Crushing blow check.
Crushing Blow is actually applied Before the weapon damage done.
.........................................................................................................................................................
REPLENISH LIFE
(25 * (+Replenish life)) / 256 = Life Per Second
E.g:
+10 Replenish life
(25 * (+Replenish life)) / 256 = Life Per Second
= (25 * (10)) / 256
= (250) /256
= 0.98 Life Per Second
.........................................................................................................................................................
FASTER RUN WALK
Basic Speed
Walking 4 yards/s
Running 6 yards/s
Formula
FinalWalkSpeed = BaseWalkSpeed *(1 + skillFRW/100 + [itemFRW*150/(itemFRW + 150)]/100 + armourRed/100)
FinalRunSpeed = BaseRunSpeed+BaseWalkSpeed *(skillFRW/100 +[itemsFRW*150/(itemFRW+150)]/100 + armourRed/100)
BaseWalkSpeed - Value obtained from above table (4)
BaseRunSpeed - Value obtained from above table (6)
skillFRW - Faster Run/Walk from skills
itemFRW - Faster Run/Walk from items
armourRed - Total reduction (negative number) from armour and/or shield. (-5) for medium shields/armours, (-10) for heavy shields/armours.
The minimum cap on run/walk is 1 yard/s.
If FinalSpeed < 1
then FinalSpeed = 1
