When a unit with the Damage Dispersion passive gets attacked in Bravely Default, the direct damage is reduced by 15% per ally but also spread to those allies. This is a great effect to help keep frail allies alive. Here’s how we can make this effect in RPG Maker MV!

Instructions
Follow video instructions.
You can grab the copy/paste code here:
- Insert the following Lunatic Mode into the passive state’s notebox. Change the values to reflect your game’s settings.
<Custom React Effect>
// Check if this dealt HP damage
if (this.isHpEffect() && value > 0) {
// Get the target's alive allies
var group = target.friendsUnit().aliveMembers();
// Calculate the damage to be dispersed
var rate = 0.15;
// Reduce it by 15% per member other than the user
rate = Math.min(rate, 1 / Math.max(1, group.length - 1));
// Round the damage down
var dmg = Math.floor(value * rate);
// Loop through each member
for (var i = 0; i < group.length; ++i) {
// Get the currently looped member
var member = group[i];
// Check if the member exists and isn't the target
if (member && member !== target) {
// Lower the damage dealt to the target by the reduced amount
value -= dmg;
// Play an animation on the looped member
member.startAnimation(2);
// Make the member lose HP
member.gainHp(-dmg);
// Play a damage popup
member.startDamagePopup();
// Check if the member is dead
if (member.isDead()) {
// If it is, make the member collapse
member.performCollapse();
}
// Clear the member's results
member.clearResult();
}
}
// Make sure the damage amount reduced cannot go below 0
value = Math.max(value, 0);
}
</Custom React Effect>
Enjoy!
