Circle Testing

[Tricen]

Impulse Drive is 2 hits.. so its only the first hit..
and in the first place, Impulse Drive cannot make Light, so the best 1 hit WS you've got is Wheeling Thrust.

If the spike is considerably increased tho, not exactly a good idea to SA in the first place cos you'd likely take hate from the back, which isn't good.

Hi jump like a boss.

Nuke from my RDM with Arcana Circle up.. Hume with pretty average gear.. Thought it was pretty impressive.

Feral Howl, that worthless piece of garbage that only lands (sometimes) on mobs that are Tough or weaker and lasts for only 2 seconds.

Its worked for me on Incredibly Tough monsters, and it has lasted sometimes for up to 10 seconds. But yeah, the accuracy is shitty

Wait wait, since when is dragoon even a threat for hate on HNM? Also: /sam and drakesbane like a baws.

Bump, any tests regarding the defense boost against the affected monster types?

I assume if it grants a +15% damage boost to physical and magical, it may grant a -15% damage reduction to physical and magical against the monster type?

Can anyone with a BST test this against a sabotender(1000 needles)? Have a vermin pet(spiders in the desert work, since they sabotenders are in the desert too), then use killer instinct just before it uses 1000 needles. See if damage is reduced.

According to ffxiclopedia, 1000 needles damage can be reduced with -physical damage reduction gear(and sentinel).

Read the OP.
Specifically test#1.

[Yugl]

OP tests damage to the Enemy. His question is about DMG taken (Unless I'm missing this somewhere, I don't believe he tested that).

[chiyio]

Range of damage taken (Without Arcane Circle): 26-59
Range of damage taken (With Arcane Circle): 21-45

This is the only test data on damage taken, but it doesnt show if its 15%+ defence, or Damage Taken-15%, hence the 1,000 needles test.

Now if only the new circle effects were active full-time when you have the killer effect as a JA... lord knows BST would suddenly become a power house.

question. does dynamis lord count as an undead or demon type of mob? if so, can have a pld or sam in each of the DD pts for an added 15% damage dealt as well

[Khajit]

or just have a brd go /pld and activate the circle/

DRK 2hr works against him right? If so, then I think he would be Demon.

earlier testing showed that if its activated on a subjob, the effect is cut in half, unless i read it wrong

more than likely so. just read wiki, and it had Shadow Lord shown as a demon, so DL prolly is as well. simple answer is to have a SAM in each party and activate right when you engage.

If this works, incoming epeen shots in the WS/MB fapping section

Crimson hands do not cause DL to intimidate RDM/DRKs, so I doubt he counts as a demon.
