It is indeed in FFXI... and it was lazy in that
but it is not in all RPGs... not even all JRPG's...
Dlvl does not appear anywhere in the FFXII damage formulae
Theory debunked

Dlvl is indeed garbage and XI did not use it correctly

Rydin yes it does let me prove you wrong right now. this is a FF 12 damage formula right here.

Bows, Daggers and Ninja Swords: These depend upon speed and strength. These can give you an edge in battle in earlier levels because the speed stat grows very slowly in comparison to everything else.

DMG = [ATK x RANDOM(1~1.125)]- DEF] x [1 + STR x (Lv+SPD)/218]. what that means is since you don't gain lot s of stats in FF 12 you get damage Bonus from your lvl's, and guess what the higher lvl you are over a lower lvl monster the harder you rape them.

Thats actually level... not level difference... the MOBs level does not factor into the formula... at all...

That formula doesn't decrease (edit: or increase) your damage based on enemy levels, it just makes you do more in a natural progression of ability that is gained with levels. It wrecks enemies that are low level because they have lower stats when compared to mobs of your own level or higher. There is no part of that particular formula that increases damage based on your level vs the mob level (that's what dlvl is). This weapon formula does more to mobs that are lower because their stats won't keep up enough to mitigate the damage.

Tl-Dr: Try again.
