    BLM category 2 merits question

    "+3 Magic Burst Damage and +5 Magic Accuracy per upgrade"

    I was just wondering, is the magic acc only for MB also or is it general accuracy of AM2 spells.

    Any insight appreciated, thanks.

    MB; sort of hard to test MACC, so it's generally accepted that theyre both MB only. Ambiguous wording ftl.

    Edit: Why are their there and theyre sucky.

    I took it as the other way, in that it increases your magic burst damage by 3, and magic accuracy for the spell in general by 5.

    The wording sucks, and I'm not English major, but "Increase Spell II magic burst damage by 3, and magic accuracy by 5.", the comma would make me assume it's the way I see it.

    Wouldn't that be a semi colon? The comma pertains to the same idea expressed in the sentence.

    I could be wrong though.

    If you do a search on the forums you would've found your answer.
    hmmm... it appears my bookmark is dead. Well, you'll find it for sure if you look.

    It stated that the japanese translation was more clear. The accuracy was always present.
