    Ancient Magic II question...

    Just how much of an "accuracy" increase and a damage increase will i see if i put another mod in it and level it to 2?

    i am just curious because i have other jobs, and i am not sure if i should spend those merits elsewhere, thanks in advance to the useful posts ^^

    You will see an increase of 3 magic burst damage, and 5 magic accuracy.

    I'm not gonna get all AM2. Flare2 sucks ass. Quake is questionable.

    I don't remember that last time I used regular Quake... I use Flare at Spirit Lantern BC, but other than that I mainly don't use those two either

    where would you use quake II? I see a slight use of Flood II for fafnir/suz/cerb (lolblm on cerb), tornado if you do kirin, and flare...I dunno, jormy? Freeze and Burst definately the two best to merit, and merit fully.

    Is there really a reason other than that most BLMs have Thunder/Ice potency merited that Freeze/Burst II are the best? I heard AM II wasn't tiered.

    Except no ones posted testing on lvl1 vs lvl3 MB yet.

    If its only 300ish dmg diffrence, its not really worth it, I doubt it will break 200dmg diffrence. And ACC? Thats really hard to test.

    Id rather merit all the AM2.

    Distortion. Darkness. Light. Fragmentation.

    Getting Quake II would be like Having Stone V just about. None of the AMII are tier'd so they all do the same damage excluding merits to potency. I know Stone spells arent used for a reason but I still think its better to have a higher tier stone spell then an extra 3dmg on my MB.

    Unless I see some proof that its 3 MAB instead of just 3 DMG like the description says I don't understand the point in meriting them past 1 in each. 40k Exp to make my spell go from 1800 to 1803 on MB only doesn't seem worth it.

    Quake II would be somewhat useful burning puddings since there tends to be earth weather a lot on the mountain.

    I'll likely try to get all 6 for utility since I don't particular care for putting up a huge number of fafnir then dying.
