Blue Mage: Best thread ever

[Nightfyre]

Assuming you can hit 26%, Wivre Gorget with crit. rate +X% augments are extremely common in Tahrongi. I've got a +2% for when Charis isn't doing anything for me, and I saw a friend get one with either +3 or +4%.

I'll keep that in mind, thanks.

Idk if that was like that eariler but I was duoing Orobon t1 yesterday with BLU+BLM and a lot of times Regurgitation bind wasn't wearing even after 3 nukes. On like 6-7 binds it wore after 1st nuke once. On T2 it was always wearing after nuke and on regular orobons it was like on t1.

Not uncommon in my experience. All the extra INT from cruor buffs and Minikin Monstrosity makes for some very potent binds.

Is Occultation blink chance based on a stat? I haven't tested much outside of abyssea but inside it seems like it's at least 90%. I'm getting more 7 blinks in a row than not, thats for sure.

Winds of Promyvion, Occultation and Reaving Wind are all 1 CE/320 VE. Dream Flower is 1 CE and ~200 VE. Reaving Wind seems to have some potential too, limited testing shows it's more potent than Feather Tickle/Light of Penance, at the very least.

Just have to say that the new blu nukes are really awsome.

highest grudge i was able to pull off at the moment was 3200 ish thats with no 2hr and no weather.

whisker can easily push 2k+

this was in abyssea of course.

What was your Atma and gear setup????

What was your Atma and gear setup????

I was using minikin and VV at the time. but I also have af+2 legs and feet and max convergence. so im sure it can be alot better with mab atmas

Has any testing been done to see if your tonberry hate effects EG at all?

[Takiwaki]

I have not seen any testing and it just seems like a really strong dark based nuke at the moment. maybe what can be a interesting test is see if the dmg scales to party size. cant do anything now unfortunately.

[Kaslo]

Well my Tonberry Hate is pretty low at the moment (reduced it before the update when doing Windy Missions) so I can't Nuke with lots of hate -> clear -> Nuke again to test numbers :/

Is the damage you did with EG replicable while in melee mode (Atma/Spell Set/Food wise)?

[Takiwaki]

the atmas I was using VV and Minikin so the int helped alot.

spell set was all over the place cus i kept equipping new spells as I leveled lol. I was not trying to max int or anything.

I did use pluto staff though for the highest dmg, was using sushi.

I am not sure what melee mode means to be honest as I swap gear for everything using spellcast.
but the dmg on the spells are very acceptable, i think it will be good dmg with a simple swap to sanguine set, which btw was hitting 1400s once I leveled to 90

By the way is EG part of any trait or new?

[Yugl]

By melee mode I meant things you cannot change mid-fight if your primary role is to melee/physical spell DD (So things like gear would not be included since you can change that).

[Takiwaki]

Then my answer would be yes most definitely.

[Kaslo]

So basically, last update we got updated DD physical spells and with this update we got nukes that don't suck when in melee mode?

[Tsuko_Asura]

Probably in need of further examination. 3k+ nukes with just Minikin and cruor INT seems pretty sketchy.

[TigeraTaru]

I was having a major accuracy issue with 1000 needles the other night doing Amhuluk. Probably casted about 12 times with a mix of my normal tp gear that has worse case 2-3 times till it hits worse case. I tried ES, Apollo Staff, magical acc med etc and still keeps missing. This just dumb luck on my part or anyone else experiencing a much lower acc for 1000 needles?

*Edit had Inpregible Tower and Minkin atmas on.

2 questions:

Has anyone tested what all Winds of Promyvion removes yet? Is it just erase debuffs, or will it hit stuff like poison and paralyze as well?

Do we know if Blue Magic gives M.Acc similar to Elemental/Enfeebling magics?

[macross]

Yeah i could never land needles on him either.

Erase only. Blue Magic does give Magic ACC for BLU spells.

I haven't tested myself, but I read in another post that it works as erase, and does not remove other enfeebles (e.g., poison).
