Before I submit a bug report could someone confirm that if The Archduke has magic of +100% that he should “destroy” the enemy.

There are many instances when he does not destroy them, but might at the second try.

In my book when something is 100% it is a certainty !!

The Archduke’s spell is deal [Magic x 1.5 + 7] damage so the 66 Magic becomes 107 damage. If you want a guaranteed kill the damage would be at least 157 (100 Magic).

This is what the kill chance is based on:

The spell description is somewhat misleading and it’s very easy for someone to be confused. So many things in this game are deceptive, and it’s like they’re trying to hide things like this intentionally.

Keep this in mind when we have a red/demon journey in about 2 weeks. He will be a somewhat reliable method of defeating level 300+ enemies when the difficulty gets too high.

I’m expecting a bug report about him again in the near future.🤣

I think the spelltext is fine, the issue is simply mistaking the purple number for the Magic stat _itself,_ when purple simply means “scales with Magic stat”.

I know I’ve had battles where I’m surprised a troop survived getting hit by The Archduke…
