Minimum damage of 1?

[Mazoku]

Hey I have a quick question again. How would I go about setting the minimum damage dealt to 1 instead of 0?

I'm asking because I want to have a rare monster in my game that only has about 5 HP, but only takes 1 damage per hit due to extremely high defense.

Game_Battler 3#attack_effect(attacker)
change the 0 in atk = [attacker.atk - self.pdef / 2, 0].max to 1

@Yeyinde - are you sure that will work?

I'd try this code

class Game_Battler
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Set Hp
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  alias damage_minimum_hp= hp=
  def hp=(hp)
    # Get old hp and 
    old_hp, new_hp = self.hp, hp
    # If Damage is A Number and Difference is damage
    if self.damage.is_a?(Numeric) and old_hp - new_hp == self.damage
      # Get Damage
      n = self.damage
      # Set New Damage
      damage_hp = [n, 1].max
      # Set Hp
      self.damage_minimum_hp = old_hp - damage_hp
      # Set Damage
      self.damage = damage_hp
    else
      # The usaul
      self.damage_minimum_hp = hp
    end
  end
end

or if you prefer you can

before this line in Game_Battler method attack_effect

      # Substract damage from HP
      self.hp -= self.damage

add this line

  self.damage = [self.damage, 1].max

The first code sets the minimum damage for all actions attacks, skills, items, whatever
