    Sorry if I wasn't clear, the reason I specified Sneak Attack for those two spells is because they are multihit, and for this test you'd want avoid situations where the first hit misses and the second hit lands and kills the mob, since with spells there's no TP return to indicate when that happens.

    Just a link to the BLU Magic DMG Formula for those working on this. I cannot get more involved than this until I return to my console.

    Actually use https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Calculati...e_Magic_Damage

    For some reason VZX added the info on the more recent spells to the wiki but not to his own page.

    The testing is being put on hold for a couple days while a friend of mine and I test Dual Wield's affect on multi hit Blue Magic. xD Call me crazy, but if you think about it, I'm sure you all notice the big 3 do more as /NIN than any other sub. There's actually a possibility that Dual Wield could add another hit to multi hit spells, but not single hit spells, much like it does for weaponskills. I'll be posting the results in the Blue Mage Findings thread, and if it proves that it's true, on both wikis as well.

    Testing on gorgets will continue once this is proved one way or another, we just felt our priorities should lie in which info is more useful.

    I find it to be impossible that they could add another hit, because if it did, it would give the monster more TP. The quick test I did for subtle blow and blue magic gave the expected results.

    Feel free to grab a BST friend and re-verify though.

    We planned to just do it in Brenner, actually.

    The BST way is much more reliable in my opinion. It's quick and very accurate (Should take at most ten samples if even that much). Thanks for the Blue Magic page Suiram, it's much cleaner than the other page.

    DW adds a hit for single hit WSs.
