Hi , i don't have Relic yet, but i thought of something interresting
the basic SC damage are calculated this way :
Skillchain damage:
Renkei Level 2-chain 3-chain 4-chain
1 50% 60% 75%
2 60% 75% 100%
3 100% 150% 200%
For exemple, if you do a :
Vorpal blade => asuran Fist ( Fire : 50 % dmg)
folowed by Tachi Koki ( fire + Light = Fusion : 75% dmg)
folowed by Spinning Slash ( Fusion + Fragmentation = Light3 : 200% dmg)
If the spinning Slash make 2OOO dmg , the SC can make up to 4OOO dmg
So now if we want to add Relic in the equation and review the skillchain damage chart , we could have :
Skillchain damage:
Renkei Leve 2-chain 3-chain 4-chain 5-chain
1 50% 60% 75% x
2 60% 75% 100% x
3 100% 150% 200%x
Relic renkei 150%? 200%? 300%? 500%?
Taking back our last SC ( ended by Spinning Slash) folowed by a 17OO Tachi Kaiten , the Light folowwing could make up to 17OO x 5 => 85OO dmg !
And one fact i forget , the longer the chain is , the less it is resisted
I'm sure there is still things we didnt find in this game, one of those could be Cosmic Elucidation ( which means Tenzen had hard time finding this):
basically , the lv 4 renkei would be all the element together because :
level 1 : Fire, Light, Wind, Thunder, Dark, Earth, Ice, Water
level 2 : Fire+Light, Wind+Thunder, Dark+Earth, Ice+Water
level 3 : Fire+Light+Wind+Thunder, Dark+Earth+Ice+Water
level 4 : Fire+Light+Wind+Thunder+Dark+Earth+Ice+Water
We know a Light( for exemple Heavy Shot => Spinning Slash) folowed by a Darkness relic WS don't make lv 4 Renkei
So maybe there are some hidden conditions which will trigger this Cosmic Elucidation , maybe the 5 WS chain... we have to ELUCIDATE this.
Even if we don't find the CE renkei, i think a 5 ws chain ended by a relic WS can really be devastating.
