I made a descent formula for ST damage.

I have been modelling ST damage as well and I also noticed this pattern. It's actually one progression from ST 10 to 20, then changes slightly between ST 20 and 40 and then it change some more between ST 40 to 100 and after a 100 it stays linear.

Would you mind sharing your spreadsheet? I kinda wanted to see your plots.
