Damage in TFT Explained
In TFT, the damage dealt to a player after losing a battle depends on the Tier and Star Level of the units remaining on the opponent's board. I prepared an example table illustrating how this damage is typically calculated:
Unit Tier | 1 Star | 2 Stars | 3 Stars |
---|---|---|---|
1 (Common) | 1 dmg | 2 dmg | 3 dmg |
2 (Uncommon) | 2 dmg | 4 dmg | 6 dmg |
3 (Rare) | 3 dmg | 6 dmg | 9 dmg |
4 (Epic) | 4 dmg | 8 dmg | 12 dmg |
5 (Legendary) | 5 dmg | 10 dmg | 15 dmg |
- Note: 2 additional damage dealt per each surviving unit. Explained below:
Base Damage per Unit & Stage
1 UNIT | 2 UNITS | 3 UNITS | 4 UNITS | 5 UNITS | 6 UNITS | 7 UNITS | 8 UNITS | 9 UNITS | 10 UNITS |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 |
Additionally, the base damage a player receives after a loss increases with each round in the game. This damage is independent of the units and depends on the stage of the game.
STAGE 1 | STAGE 2 | STAGE 3 | STAGE 4 | STAGE 5 | STAGE 6 | STAGE 7+ |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 8 | 15 |
How to Easily Calculate Damage in TFT?
So, to quickly calculate the damage in TFT, you would need to:
- Add up the damage depending on the Tier and star level of each surviving unit
- Add 2 additional points of damage for each surviving unit
- Add the base damage depending on the stage of the game.
And that's about it, really. I would personally advise you to just screenshots the 3 tables above or re-visit the article if you need to. However, you will get the hang of it at some point; this is
