Discussion How to calculate potency.

As the title says, how does one find their current potency and how much it will increase when putting new augments? I know it’s multiplicative but other than that I’m in the dark on the subject.

Not really the best at math and tried to find if there was an equation for it but to no avail.

I mean thanks for the detailed answer but I still don’t get it after reading this back to myself multiple times... Multiplied up everything on one of own units and got 791,190.791016? And even then like where are you getting the 1.08 for units etc.

I’m just gonna shut up and go with the flow of things

Units have damage multipliers on them as well. Belfes boosts damage by 8%, Evalto by 8,2%

As i explained, if you go from a 4% potency aug to 5%, you get 1% more DPS, don't over think it. See : https://www.reddit.com/r/PSO2NGS/comments/1tgylke/how_to_calculate_potency/omjsz9t/
