    Percentage Modifier Priority

    In what order do JA, Songs, Food, and Equipment come into play?

    Say you have 300 base attack, +50 for equipment, +70 from songs, and is eating a food that gives 20% attack and is also using berserk.

    Would the bonus from food be just 60 ATK and 75 ATK from berserk, or would it be more than that?

    Does the Food/Berserk modifies only the base attack, or would it also account the gear, buffs, and food/berserk?

    Going by eye alone, I believe Berserk's bonus is added after everything else. I'm not too sure when food bonus is applied though. Haven't eaten meat in ages.

    (Yeah I fail )

    I could be wrong since I don't use /WAR too often, but I think it's

    1. Equipment
    2. Songs
    3. Food
    4. Job Abilities

    It might also be

    1. Equipment
    2. Songs
    3. Job Abilities
    4. Food

    Second one in Divisor's post is correct. Food's bonus when uncapped goes up when Berserk is used

    Not too sure about this,
    I'm with Tradition's idea...I was thinking food was not affected by zerk. But it seems not to be that way.

    never really test it... since the only occasion I ever use /WAR is on specific BCNM

    I still get confused with XP calculations. Yesterday I was in a great new camp on BST, doing colibri with EM tiger pets at lvl67, with ring and sanction. If I got the timing wrong and still had pet at kill I was getting around 285-462xp per kill, and I couldn't figure out the base XP at all (which woulda been nice since it was pretty high). I fail, I need to go back to math class. It's the sanction that does it. ; ;

    [edit - just figured it out, *blush* - although it's telling me they're higher level than the guides >.<]

    All percentages seem to stack after all flat calculations. For example, let's say you have 200 base attack, and +100 from gear. Then you eat an uncapped food with 15% attack, and use Berserk (25%). Would go:

    (200 + 100) * 1.15 * 1.25

    Now let's say you used Warcry (I'll be honest, don't remember how much it is atm, let's say 25)

    (200 + 100 + 25) * 1.15 * 1.25

    Let's say it's a capped food at 85 attack.

    (200 + 100 + 25 + 85) * 1.25

    Likewise, stuff like Minuet increases the attack bonus Zerk gives you, and will increase your food bonus until it caps.
