Lukas versus Phoveus

Lukas vs Phoveus: Head-to-Head Analysis (No Items)

Let's analyze the battlefield scenario between Lukas and Phoveus without using any items. We'll compute their damage outputs, survivability, and utility in the battle.

1. Skill Damage Computation

Lukas’ Skills Recap:

1. Flash Step → Flash Strike (Enhanced)

   • Damage: $$60 + (125\% \text{ of } 250) = 60 + 312.5 = 372.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     

2. Flash Combo with 2 Vigor Stacks (Pulverize + Spins)

   • Pulverize Damage: $$300 + (120\% \text{ of } 250) = 300 + 300 = 600 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Spin Damage (3 hits): $$3 \times (100 + 50\% \text{ of } 250) = 3 \times (100 + 125) = 3 \times 225 = 675 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Total for Flash Combo: $$600 + 675 = 1,275 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     

3. Shockwave Blast (Initial Blast + 3 Aftershocks)

   • Initial Blast: $$300 + (100\% \text{ of } 250) = 300 + 250 = 550 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Aftershocks: $$3 \times [80 + (25\% \text{ of } 250)] = 3 \times (80 + 62.5) = 3 \times 142.5 = 427.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Total for Shockwave Blast: $$550 + 427.5 = 977.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$

Total Potential Damage Output for Lukas:

1. Flash Strike: 372.5
2. Flash Combo: 1,275
3. Shockwave Blast: 977.5

Total Damage:

$$372.5 + 1,275 + 977.5 = 2,625 \text{ Physical Damage}$$

---

Phoveus’ Skills:

1. Passive Skill: Demonic Force

   • Extra Magic Damage: $$4\% \text{ of } \text{Enemy's Max HP}$$
     
   • Shield: $$8\% \text{ of } \text{Phoveus' Max HP}$$
     
   • For this analysis, we need to assume Lukas’ Max HP is 2,500 for calculation purposes.
   • Magic Damage on Next Basic Attack: $$4\% \text{ of } 2,500 = 100 \text{ Magic Damage}$$
     
   • Shield from Passive: $$8\% \text{ of } 2,500 = 200 \text{ Shield}$$
     

2. First Skill: Demonic Impact (AOE Slow)

   • Damage Range:
   • Assume average damage:
   $$\text{Average Damage} = \frac{200 + 500}{2} + (120\% \text{ of } 250) = 350 + 300 = 650 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
   
   • Astaros Eye Damage:
   • Assume average damage:
   $$\text{Average Damage} = \frac{100 + 250}{2} + (60\% \text{ of } 250) = 175 + 150 = 325 \text{ Magic Damage}$$
   
   • Total for First Skill:
   $$650 + 325 = 975 \text{ Total Damage}$$
   

3. Second Skill: Dark Wave (AOE/CC)

   • Damage Range:
   • Assume average damage:
   $$\text{Average Damage} = \frac{250 + 500}{2} + (100\% \text{ of } 250) = 375 + 250 = 625 \text{ Magic Damage}$$
   

4. Ultimate Skill: Infernal Pursuit

   • Judgement Damage:
   • Assume average damage:
   $$\text{Average Damage} = \frac{250 + 500}{2} + (100\% \text{ of } 250) + (5\% \text{ of } 2,500) = 375 + 250 + 125 = 750 \text{ Total Damage}$$
   
   • Healing:
   • Phoveus heals:
   $$50 + (6\% \text{ of } 2,500) = 50 + 150 = 200 \text{ HP}$$

Total Potential Damage Output for Phoveus:

1. Demonic Force (Magic Damage on Basic Attack): 100
2. Demonic Impact: 975
3. Dark Wave: 625
4. Infernal Pursuit: 750

Total Damage:

$$100 + 975 + 625 + 750 = 2,450 \text{ Total Damage}$$
