Mechanics

Shin Megami Tensei V

Power Punch's base power is multiplied by $1+\frac{{\text{HP}}_{\text{Current}}}{{\text{HP}}_{\text{Maximum}}}$, rounded down. However, HP in excess of the maximum (such as when the user is overhealed) is ignored, meaning the base power can only be between 155 and 310.
