Blue Mage: Best thread ever

[Tonko]

The troll will be dealt with, carry on.

[VZX]

also, from Delekii's data, it seems that Blue magic fSTR is melee weapon fSTR-1

If I decrease melee weapon fSTR by 1 and use it to blue magic fSTR, the base damage will perfectly match the mode of pDIF = 1.0

Edit: capped blue magic skill tonight, I better get more data before I putting any physical potency merit

Isn't it more likely that fSTR is the same, but that the formula for calculating D (or I guess the listed cap for the lower spells) is off by 1?

[VZX]

Hmm maybe?

We only tested with spells that already hit D cap at 75

More equipment questions!

Demon Slayer: worth 900k?I don't really solo Imps all that much, I'm more concerned with DoT in meripo parties.

Is it acceptible to only buy one Triumph earring and keep Suppa in the other slot for the accuracy? Or should I bite the bullet and get two Triumphs?

How long will it take me to get a drop from Alkyoneus? -.-

[Tonko]

Best DoT in meripo is Pedru/Ifrits. Demon Slayer only a good buy if you like to solo imps.

Get two.

Potentially forever.

{That's interesting}.

I was under the impression that the Adaman Kilij line was the best DoT behind Perdu's. if it's not, then I guess I'm free to save up for Triumphs.

Actually Shotel/Perdu is best DoT, Ifrit's low DMG isn't really made up for in the 10 attk and 3 STR.

[Tonko]

Shotel is not a realistic option.

[VZX]

You need high base damage to reach higher number though

[Meian]

Do you have any screenies to show how often the proc rate on dual Demon Slayers is? I was curious to see how it worked since I could wear Flawless Ribbon to boost it some more

[VZX]

I think proc rate is level dependant too

I see more proc on EP demons in zvahl compared to imps in mire

[Kaslo]

That's because you have a higher CHR difference no those.

But as you say Shotel isn't realistic, but it is best, which would contradict your previous statement ;p

[Delekii]

I don't think a CHR > Intimidation rate link has ever been proven..

hmmm...What are BLU's base statistical rankings (A, B, C, etc.)?

PUP stole our throwing skill.

[LD]

Statistical, as in attributes. There's a formula for it, but my I don't know the stats of a 75 BLU.

Not really. PUP Had Throwing Skill before we could use Chakrams. Silly SE at anyrate.

[Tonko]

PUPs use Animators.... preventing them from using any throwing items. And there's only 4 ammo items, and 7 ranged items that they can equip.

PUP weren't supposed to have throwing, BLU were.

All E
We are the suckiest job when it comes to base stats
