Formulas TFS

[Black Reaper]

I'm looking for the formulas that are used to calculate melee damage, dist damage, and how much armor reduces damage. Be great if anyone has them, I don't particularly want to dig through the source especially when I won't know what variables are being used etc.

Anyone got any idea for above?

thanks

function getDamageReduction(creature, damage, damType)
local damageReduction = 0
local armor = creature:getArmor()
local defence = creature:getDefense()
local resistance = creature:getResistance(damType)
    
    if armor > 0 then damageReduction = math.ceil(armor * 0.475) end
    if defence > 1 then
        if creature:isMonster() then
            damageReduction = damageReduction + math.floor(math.random(defence/2, defence))
        else
            local defenseSkill = creature:getEffectiveSkillLevel(SKILL_SHIELD)
            -- defenseFactor is missing from calculations, because seem like I can't get it without source edit
            damageReduction = damageReduction + math.ceil(defenseSkill * defence * 0.015 + defence * 0.1) -- * defenseFactor
        end
    end
    if resistance > 0 then damageReduction = damageReduction + percentage(damage, resistance) end
    return damageReduction
end

This is latest function I did for that matter, I'm also interested did I miss anything or can it be improved.
