I'm curious as to how you define the accuracy of your formula. I simply believe this game is chock full of outliers on both ends for there to be an 'accurate' program for figuring out point totals.
Like I said before, the best thing you can do is ballpark it and then take everything else into account.
For example, does your program assign a point value for Deadly Attack? If so, does that change if the character also has Flurry Attack? Alone those abilities are not worth much, maybe 2 points each at best. Together I'd say the combo is worth around 8.
Anyway, I hope this post does not feel like an attack, because it is not, I'm merely curious about your methods as well.
