Damage

Shown for stock Liana, Fire Wooden Staff at level 5 (level cap). Pick your physical and magic units in the sidebar.
Expected per cast 96 magic per target
= MAtk 89.3 x 100% x 1.076 crit
Versus benchmark 17.8% of Acid Slogel HP
Damage per second 61.5 per second (at attack speed)
Per cast range 96 direct only, up to 156 per hit target with the full 60 burn damage from one application.
Damage over time Applies 2 Burning = 6 damage/second (3/stack/s x 2 stacks) for 10 s = 60 total per application. It is flat (ignores resistance and attack power). Re-applied on each hit: at this caster's attack speed (0.6/s) about 12.8 stacks stay up, for ~38.4/s sustained.
Versus median 1x the median magic active per cast
The game calls Burning defense-ignoring in English and barrier-ignoring in Korean; raw numbers shown ignore the difference.
Numbers are before target resistance (damage x 100 / (100 + R); most monsters have 0, armored ones up to 60 for a 37.5% cut) and before hit chance, dodge and guard. Combat difficulty does not change your own damage.
