// Calculate 10% of target's current MP.
var mp = Math.ceil(b.mp * 0.10);
// Calculate the cap: 20% of user's MaxMP.
var cap = Math.ceil(a.mmp * 0.20);
// Determine if the MP cap is to be used.
mp = Math.min(mp, cap);
// Target loses MP.
b.gainMp(-mp);
// Damage is equal to 50% of MP damage dealt.
value = Math.ceil(mp * 0.50);
</Damage Formula>
