Weapon hit spells, area effects and lower defence

Proc chances#

Each supported hit property is compared independently with a random integer 0–99 after the main hit deals positive damage. The ordinary chance is the property value in percent; an applicable special move can multiply that property chance before integer truncation. Multiple different properties can trigger on one hit.

Hit-spell damage#

Weapon Magic Arrow, Harm, Fireball and Lightning use the same basic dice rolls as those spell names, then add Inscription, floor(Intelligence÷10) and effective SDI for a player attacker. These weapon-proc calculations do not apply the normal Magery Evaluating Intelligence multiplier. Psychic Attack’s spell-damage malus is also read on this weapon-proc path.

Area effects#

A current-era hit-area proc checks valid harmful targets within five tiles of the attacker and requires line of sight. It excludes the attacker and the original defender. It rolls base weapon damage for each eligible secondary target and sends that amount through the selected elemental resistance path. It does not copy the full main-hit damage after all support and ability bonuses.

Hit Lower Attack and Hit Lower Defence#

Names and meaning#

HLD reduces the defender’s chance-modifier term in the hit formula. It is not a direct 25-percentage-point increase to every opponent’s final hit probability. LCD is not a separate attribute in this code; if you meant Lower Defence, use the HLD entry.
