Information
Circle's helpfile is somewhat misleading. First of all, the way the mud detects 'distraction' doesn't work quite the way it describes, it is somewhat more complex. Second, the damage circle does is nowhere near that of backstab. The damage circle does is based on your melee damage. Thus, your damage roll, average damage, and combat style all take part in how much damage it does. The formula isn't particularly simple, and would probably just confuse most readers, but each damage roll point adds roughly 2-3 damage.
