Sorry for the long wait, but this is my current ATK model WITHOUT drops:

(Total Frontline ATK + (Total Backline ATK*0.8))*(1+(Skills)+(ElementalBoost)+(Altar)) = Result

Skills = (((1+Skill1)*(1+Skill2)*(1*Skill3))-1) ElementalBoost = (# of on-color cards in Frontline * 0.05) Altar = (# of colored cards that guild has altar of in Frontline * 0.05)

Unfortunately, if you have boost skills that do not affect cards in the Frontline or Backline, you need to adjust the numbers accordingly because they don't get the full effect of boosts.

For a single Frontline card, the formula would look like this: Card ATK*(1+(Skills)+(ElementalBoost)+(Altar)) = Result

While a single Backline card will have a similar formula with the 80%: (Card ATK*0.8)*(1+(Skills)+(ElementalBoost)+(Altar))

As seen in the formula, Altar and Elemental Boost % bonuses are not only additive with the regular boosts, but they are solely based on the Frontline cards and has nothing to do with the Backline card's element, which makes KvK's 25% ALL boost a bit more appealing for Forest users (ignoring consistency issues).

As mentioned in the beginning, this ATK model does not account for drops, which may change the formula. According to my tests, this is within 0.01% of the Game calculations, and I attribute the difference to rounding errors (not sure if it's floor or ceiling nor # of significant integers). I welcome others to test the validity of the formula since I have been busy as of late and only ran ~50 attacks on my test dummy.
