- Start at apply_damage_brand() in attack.cc, and check for
case SPWPN_FLAMING:. It has a call to calc_elemental_brand_damage() there, which doesspecial_damage = resist_adjust_damage(defender, flavour, random2(damage_done) / 2 + 1);, which is flaming's +0-50% damage. Then there's a check for the target's resists in resist_adjust_damage(), and so on and so forth. Ge0ff (talk) 17:32, 27 November 2023 (CET)
