    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    Not that it's been proven, but it's pretty certain Hafud's gunna be an Odin's Chamber Einherjar drop because, and this has been said at least twice, it looks exactly like the new sword the Dark Rider weilds in his new dat. So until someone totally beats tier 2 & 3....

    Maybe this month's Einherjar changes will expidite the situation.

    More importantly, Enchainment won't work if CA is not activated, will it?

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    Those look pretty much like what I do on Hediva, I never exp elsewhere on BLU. Enchainment specifically says TP bonus on CA. Unless it's broken and nobody noticied, it won't work w/o CA.

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    probably noob question, forgive me if so. are blue mage magical ranged attacks affected by ranged accuracy? and if so, can i hold an imperial egg and rarely miss?

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    ranged attack is always physical, not magical.
    and I doubt it's NOT affected by ranged accuracy

    EDIT:... wtf, forgot to put NOT there

    What magic spells are you referring to being "ranged spells?"

    If you mean things like Pincone bomb, Feather storm, Cannonball & the like, those are physical spells. I think they are influenced by Ranged Accuracy, but have not done any tests to confirm.

    Yeah, I did test way back when-- not affected by Ranged Acc. Cannonball is also non-ranged physical attack (just as a long range, like Mistral Axe).

    My accuracy with Pinecone Bomb always seems much lower than other spells, wonder why.

    Pinecone Bomb is weird; it's like it has a lower accuracy than normal or something. Damn sure Ranged Acc does not affect itm however-- but if someone is willing to throw down some gil for an Imp Egg to test, they can be my guest. (Gonna get an Imp Egg, for a CHR build much later in the future however).

    Tested a bit about physical potency...
    I know it's only 17 casts, it's still very few samples to conclude anything, but from the data, physical potency does nothing to increase the coefficient.
    I wanted to test more but fucking Guivre say hi to me, so I gotta log for the night.

    Do you know what kind of ranged attack it is?

    Accuracy for RA generally isn't very good (kind of like why it sucks to be a RNG from 66-69) and can vary for non-RNG's greatly depending on distance from target depending on RA type.

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    All BLU ranged spells count as throwing as far as accuracy + sweetspot is concerned.

    And I popped out an 1819 Eyes on Me Last night on a whim on a worm in Gustaberg.

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    On the subject of Pinecone Bomb, has anyone else noticed the oddly high damage it produces on lower level mobs? I was messing around on BLU testing damage and hit a rabbit for just under 900 damage. Is there any way to reach those kinds of numbers on anything higher level? If we can boost it to even half of that it would be an extremely efficient DD spell.

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    It's a ranged attack, so it suffers and benefits from all the ranged attack damage calculations, which are largely level based.

    Re: Blue Mage: Job Findings

    Your bow/arrow doesn't have stat mods. What amounts to a minor base damage increase will probably seem greater on a lower level mob. Plus, wasn't it already noted that BLU physical spells have no discernable fSTR cap?
