Describe your requested feature

There should be some sort of general indication on why the end values don't add up cleanly, without revealing too much about the mob.

Current:

Attack Party:

Flame from Smiley-Creators πŸ˜ƒ: 🎲(8) + πŸ—‘οΈ150
aikaterna: 🎲(46) + ✨1,104

The group killed the Owlspider (2,037/67).

Instead, something like:

Attack Party:

Flame from Smiley-Creators πŸ˜ƒ: 🎲(8) + πŸ—‘οΈ150
aikaterna: 🎲(46) + ✨1,104

The group's attacks were more effective! / The Owlspider was intimidated via the flurry of attacks! / Your group received a minor blessing from [magic-related god figure, maybe even a list of gods settable in the cog]
The group killed the Owlspider (2,037/67).

In this example, the Owlspider has less resistance to magic. Even though some of the values are convoluted further through other calculations there can be a vague way to infer more damage was taken by the mob without specifically revealing the mob's weakness.
