Will post patterns in a second (I just need a visual look at this). The results are +/-1 due to ticks/visual notice of the wyvern's HP bar disappearing. Given two different values, I adjusted them for consistent values. However, I've left the original values so if I did need to "unadjust them" that will be possible. Remember, adjustments were ONLY +/-1 HP.

HP values obtained with the help of Niloc on the test server.

Tested using DRG + RDM. RDM nukes and then uses diaga. Using my HP, I calculated how much HP diaga took from the wyvern before the wyvern wiped.

Ok, nothing immediate for 1-10. There are obvious patterns elsewhere and the 15HP increment explains 991HP at 75.

Just did a Elemental Breath on LV1 DRG for 19DMG. This conforms with the (HP/6) + 15 formula and shows that the 15 is not a function of level.

Edit: Did another breath at LV5 for 13DMG (1/2 resist, but 26 is correct). I'll check LV4 to see if there is a difference between each level. I checked level 4 and breath did 24 DMG. This places LV4 HP at 54-65HP. This also supports the 15 base constant.

Posted in test server already, but will post here as well.

HB IV is base 60 with mult 53/256.

Also, wyvern HP is now ~1474@99. Likely due to the boost to DRG HP values also affecting mobs/pets who are DRG.

**Yugl** · 2012-01-26 17:44

That's an odd multiplier. The previous one was 1/6, which cannot work under the 256 system (42/256 underestimates Elemental breath DMG and 43/256 overestimates the DMG by 1pt).

I was testing Healing Breath IV, not any of the Elemental Breaths.

I don't see any reason the Elemental Breaths would have changed, other than doing more damage now with the higher wyvern HP.

**Yugl** · 2012-01-26 18:09

After looking at your post I realize I was applying Elemental to HB (Forgot they were different and I somehow remember Elemental's formula better). Looks like a (8/256) boost to the multiplier I guess.

Either Fencer doesn't apply to Healing Breath or /WAR doesn't grant Fencer with Wyrm Mail. Maybe I'll parse crit% with and without it on some bunnies or something.

**dasva** · 2012-02-05 14:21

Does it work with elemental breaths?

**Ophannus** · 2012-02-05 14:46

TP doesn't enhance Elemental Breath damage, only accuracy; which is very difficult to test.

**dasva** · 2012-02-05 20:12

Clearly wyverns are h2h mobs then

**Yugl** · 2012-02-05 20:35

Would that mean martial arts applies? Test it Oph.

**Ophannus** · 2012-02-06 10:22

I refuse because lolDRG/MNK. and no gear has Pet:MA

**Darkmagi** · 2012-02-06 13:52

Wyverns are obviously not h2h... they don't attack twice per round. More likely impact damage, which avatars have as well. (Same as staff/club)

But fencer isn't working!

**Ophannus** · 2012-02-06 17:11

I didn't say it isn't working. I said the TP Bonus +20% doesn't seem to work for Healing Breath. Need to parse Crit% to see if it truly has Fencer.

**Darkmagi** · 2012-02-06 22:15

Fencer won't work if it is considered a staff for example.

**Yugl** · 2012-02-06 22:32

I don't think Seigan has worked for our pet though. That's why Das offered H2H, I believe.

**Darkmagi** · 2012-02-06 22:38

Easiest way to test is on Pil, he will sometime take h2h damage with shield up, and sometimes impact dmg.

**dasva** · 2012-02-06 23:53

As far as 2hd I used 2hd regain atma to test that.

**Ophannus** · 2012-02-07 10:18

But Fencer works for BST pets that are WAR like Nursery Nuzanna
