If you have a X5 raid card, then your attacks could deal as much as 1mil damage each time those cards get to attack.

If the boss doesn't kill you in one hit (which it shouldn't if your cards are MTM'ed; they should be able to withstand at least 3 hits even from the bigger bosses), then you get to attack 1-2 more times. It adds up quickly.

If you get a critical attack off with one of those cards, then you end up hitting for an extra 2 million damage each time. Again, it can make a huge difference and can add up quickly.

The lower level bosses don't hit as hard as the level 6 ones, so it is possible to actually withstand more than 2-3 attacks from those, thus getting more attacks off.

If you use 3 cubes (X5 multiplier), then you end up with regular attacks that can deal up to 6 million damage (your attack is multiplied before the boss' defense kicks in, so you can deal more damage each attack), and crits become monstrous 15mil+ hits.

Also, as others have mentioned, you can actually use as many cubes as you want on a boss. I've seen some desperate (or maybe just impatient?) people use what was probably at least 6 cubes on a boss to deal around 100mil damage to it.

My personal best (on level 6 bosses) is 28 million for one cube, and 87 million for 2 cubes (I don't know how many crits I got off in that fight since I tend to skip them, but it must have been at least 10...).

And yes, episode bonus is taken into account for your deck power (otherwise my deck wouldn't have nearly as much power as it does right now, considering I have some subpar R4s in some of my slots).
