Have been wondering about this for a while:
Is the damage I deal to enemies and/or their defense against my attacks modified by the level difference? Or in other words, does it make a difference whether I attack a, lets say, lvl 10 orc with a lvl 9, 10, or 11 character? Provided, of course, that I have the same equipment and haven't spent any skill or trait points when leveling, so stats are still the same (except for the unavoidable HP/MP increase).
It's just that it often feels much easier to beat enemies of a certain level after gaining 1 or 2 myself, although my attack and defense values haven't changed. Maybe this is just a placebo effect or can someone enlighten me about the deep mysteries of battle math?
