Just wondering if, for example, after defence is calculated, you ended up with .07 of an icon or .73 of an icon- how much damage would you do?
Would .07 round down or up, would .73 round down or up? (after multiplied by offence boost/defence boost)
I'm pretty sure that the battledome follows standard rounding conventions. (i.e. greater than or equal to .5= round up, less than .5= round down.)
I happen to know as a fact that with standard conditions (all catious stance and what not) that my BoD with the 250 boost rounds up from 71.5 (5.5*13) to 72.
okay thankyou

I was wondering earlier...
What if you do 1 damage and then your opponent used Downsize!. It would be 1/2 which is .5, which would round back up to 1, correct?
Now what if you do a fractional icon that .7 damage. Your opponent uses Downsize! - does it go down to .35 damage and then round down to nothing or would it first round up to 1 damage and then get cut in half? Thanks

I'm FAIRLY certian that would round down to nothing. I'm not entirely sure where rounding happens in relation to defense, though.
I believe it always rounds up. For example, 10.4 damage = 11 damage

I'm pretty sure that ISN'T the case... I've had cases where I know the damage I was doing was x.25, and it rounded down to x.

I did some tests, and it appears that you are right :\'(. I was probably thinking of drain life, where 1.111111 HP = 2 HP
I used a hand painted scarab and did 13.5 dmg which was rounded to 14 (oppponent was on neutral stance). Then I tried using the same scarab with beserk, and did 20.25 dmg, which was rounded down to 20.
