A quick summary of how Area of Effect (or AoE) works.
Enemy AoE
AoE powers which hit enemies have their number of targets affected by accuracy.
- The power determines its decay amount by dividing 40% by its rank. Small = 2, medium = 3, large = 4; upgrades increase the rank.
- The power picks its primary target and hits it with full accuracy.
- The power reduces its accuracy by the decay amount.
- The power hits a secondary target with the reduced accuracy.
- Repeat from step 3 until its reduced accuracy is equal to or less than 0.
Friendly AoE
Since accuracy is irrelevant in hitting allies, such powers hit 'rank + 1d2' targets. As before, small = 2, medium = 3, and large = 4, and then upgrades add on to that.
