PLACEMENT-BONUSES

Normally an attacker subtracts from -1 to -4 to the defender's placement based on grouping status and flanking knowledge. However, these modifiers are also modified by the power level difference between the attacker and defender.

For example, if a level 120 warrior (power level 140) attacks a level 100 mobile (power level 100) and knows the flanking skill and isn't grouped, the modifier would be:

-  1 because the warrior counts as one attacker
-0.9 because the warrior knows flanking to 90%

That total of -1.9 would then be multipled by the power level ratio between attacker and defender:

140/100 * -2 = -2.66

So the net modifier to the level 100 mobile's placement would be -2.8.
