New WS Properties/Modifier/Damage Testing

[Seraph]

No way, you could do like 1500 consistently with food and BRD songs, haha.

Yeah, I know. Just trying to figure out why 750 would be the magic number for a Galka endgame PLD. I know that PLD atk is usually floating in the 300s somewhere for most builds. Just throwing ideas out there.

I hope it's not HP based, kinda kills Organics hotness

True, but would you really complain about what's essentially a 300% Spirits at 100% TP? <_>

I have my doubts that it's HP based, but it'd be beautiful if it were.

[Callisto]

Would like to see it on something higher too, Sky NMs/Gods or someshit, would be a really sweet fight opener for extra hate if it stays consistent.

Yea max, I'm unhappy with my data too, it doesn't seem like it's working out right. Thats part of why I didnt want to post it, but I guess initial speculation based on some data is better than none. Using the gorget as a base, the first hit should have a ~.8 fTP, with the gorget bumping it to .9. But if you work backwards from that math, the mods don't seem to work out. I toy'd with the idea of possible mod caps, but that seems too strange to be true.

I have classes and ein today, but if I get a chance I am going to play around /w different DMG Scythes to get more precise testing.

I realli miss the old days when 3.0 pdif was the cap. This stuff was so much easier to test accurately =/.

Just tested Blade:Kamu

It was pretty clear that the damge would never be able to compete with Blade:Jin. But the ACCURACY DOWN lasted a whole minute at 100TP. Kind of a cool tool to have avaiable.


Testing the actual % of the ACC down requires my parser to go and work again

Brutal Earring and Homam Body might be definate WS pieces for it though, if additional hits add 300+ damage each though...

Mandalic Stab only doing 1000 dmg in mercy stroke gear with mandau on lesser colibris outside Whitegate with no food/buffs I don't have the correct gorget, but mercy stroke does 1.3~2k dmg on those in the same situation. Both times with sneak attack, without SA it did half that.

Not as promising as I thought, but hey it's only the first day, and I'll remain optimistic because the WS looks cool.

I keep realizing I've left info out. The friend with whom I was testing is hume and was using Organics. See my first post in this thread for an SS of his WS gear.

When you said consistently 750, did you mean that it literally did 750 every time or hovered between ~720 and ~770?

Yes, exactly 750 everytime regardless of TP and buffs like berserk. It was just me on Samurai, him, and a whm, so we couldn't test stuff like bard songs. He did report one doing less damage with defender up(680~), but two subsequent WS with defender up yielded 750 again, so I'm not sure what was up there. Overall sample size was a couple dozen uses.

Um...Defense?

[Deftscythe]

Um...Defense?

If defense played in, we should've noticed some damage change using berserk.

SAM got a new 3-hits WS that is really useful without Hagun, also enabling self-darkness SC.

sam could already self SC darkness before, but know may we don't have to use jinpu

SAM couldn't self-Darkness with only two weaponskills though, save some quick swapping between great kanana and polearm.

[Ophannus]

Kinda lame DRG got another multi hit ws. That was 1 area we clearly didn't need help in, cuz penta already does 2k-3k on birds with the right gear and support. We just needed a reliably stronger 1 hit ws to use on HNM because multihits are worthless on endgame mobs lol

Not if it just ignored status effects or only focused on def from armor. If Counterstance can totally eliminate armor def and leave VIT def, then only using it should be the same type of deal.
