so, after trying to do some labbing regarding what specific attacks are affected by which specific spirit abilities (currently on hold), i decided to find out how team power was calculated. below are my findings. the important data will be in orange whereas all data regarding how i came to my conclusions are in violet. i intend to continue labbing and finding the inner workings of spirits. also note, i posted this data on reddit as well. im saying that simply to defend myself against any possible plagiarism accusations. if you have anything to add to this, please, by all means comment and add to the pool of data.

4* 1 slot support spirit= 10% increase rounded down to nearest whole number (2 4* ss's=20% increase total)
4* 2 slot support spirit= ~15% increase (may change tp based on order placed)
3* 1 slot support spirit=~8% power increase
3* 2 slot support spirit=~13% power increase
2* 1 slot support spirit=~6% power increase
2* 2 slot support spirit=~11% power increase
1* 1 slot support spirit=~4% power increase
1* 2 slot suppot spirit=~9% power increase


1* 958 ps+1 slot 4* ss=1053 tp (95 difference)
2* 1924 ps+1 slot 4* ss=2116 tp (192 difference)
4* 5909 ps+1 slot 4* ss=6499 tp (590 difference)
4* 8869 ps+1 slot 4* ss=9755 tp (886 difference)
this data concludes that the rank of the primary spirit doesnt affect the support spirit's boost to the team power, but the ps's current team power without spirits does affect the power boost from the 4* support spirit in the form of 10% team power increase. from here on, i will be using a 4* 5909 ps as the base for simplicity.


4* 5909 ps+1 slot 4* ss=6499 tp (590 difference)
4* 5909 ps+1 slot 4* ss=6499 tp (590 difference)+1 slot 4* ss=7148 tp (649 difference) (1239 total difference)
this data concludes that ss's % increase is cumulative in the sence that the game calculates the power increase of ss's one at a time instead of using the ps's base power for each spirit.


4* 5909 ps+2 slot 4* ss=6795 tp (886 difference)
4* 5909 ps+2 slot 4* ss=6795 tp (886 difference)+1 slot 4* ss=7474 tp (679 difference) (1565 total difference)
4* 5909 ps+1 slot 4* ss=6499 tp (590 difference)+2 slot 4* ss= 7473 tp (974 difference) (1564 total difference)
this data concludes that that 2 slot 4* ss's provide a lower total power increase (~15%) as opposed to 2 1 slot 4* ss's (~20%). it also concludes that when dealing with 2 slot spirits, the order matters, even if it's only a difference of 1 total tp.


4* 5909 ps+1 slot 3* ss=6381 (472 difference) (7.9% increase)
4* 8869 ps+1 slot 3* ss=9578 (709 difference) (7.9% increase)
4* 5909 ps+2 slot 3* ss=6677 (768 difference) (12.9% increase)
1* 958 ps+1 slot 3* ss=1034 (76 difference) (7.9% increase)
4* 5909 ps+1 slot 2* ss=6263 (354 difference) (5.9% increase)
4* 5909 ps+2 slot 2* ss=6559 (650 difference) (11% increase)
3* 4337 ps+2 slot 2* ss=4814 (477 difference) (10.9% increase)
4* 5909 ps+1 slot 1* ss=6145 (236 difference) (3.9% increase)
4* 5909 ps+2 slot 1* ss=6440 (531 difference) (8.9% increase)


i honestly thought, when taking on this task, it would be more complicated than simple percentages. im just happy it was easy.
