Magic Fruit, Healing Breeze, Wild Carrot

[eva00r]

Some noobish questions but I'd like to ask before spending money on my +MND gears. To justify the worthness of main healing BLU.

Do Magic Fruit, Healing Breeze, Wild Carrot have any upper cap ? If yes, how much, if no what's the estimated highest we can get ?
What's the best build for these spells?

It is a little hard to understand what he's saying with the charts at first, until you realize that each one describes a function that is piecewise-linear with 2 inflection points at the labelled 'soft caps'. Plus if you follow the link at the bottom it leads to a source webpage that goes into a bit more depth, as well as comparing those BLU spells to their white magic counterparts and it has some graphs and stuff. Anyhow, can't at all say I can vouch for its accuracy but it seems pretty well put-together to me.

The best build for Healing Breeze/Wild Carrot is to sub blu to WHM.

They can be really efficent, +cure potency, +MND, +VIT(I believe? or is it the VIT of the target?) and +Healing magic will all modify it.

Basically if your going for a max heal build you'd equip the same as a WHM or RDM would.

Edit: Read above link, seems valid but I'm not sure I get the difference between C3/WC since WC will heal more than C3 in my gear but that list shows it as a lower soft cap.

If you follow the link it says that WC's formula is essentially the same as C3's minus 10. The one thing it doesn't really explain is how BLU and healing skills combine as for example when you are BLU/WHM, but my guess as to why your WCs would do more is due to that somehow, the difference from the additional Blue magic skill overtaking the 10 point difference in their respective formulas. The soft caps are just his term for 'inflection point,' since it doesn't really behave like a cap--I think that term is used in a fundamentally different way in other contexts.

Says someone named Furen. Like I said if you follow the link at the bottom there's a lot more detail as well.

Furen is a 75whm taru from Fenrir who had way too much fun calculating cure caps lol It was pretty fun helping out though, and a lot of good info came of it. I didn't know it was linked on the wiki - pretty cool^^b

MND build is not only helpful on the curing spells for BLU, but it's also very useful on spells such as Mind Blast (up to 400s on VT imps) and Magic Hammer (up to 200s on VT imps)
