Ever wanted to make a skill that deals more damage each time it’s used in battle based on the number of spells cast? The skill would deal a small bit of damage at the beginning of battle and end up quite big towards the end of it based on the total number of spells cast per battle. Here’s how we can make this effect in RPG Maker MV!
