Adjustments of the Job Persuasion! (06/17/10)

fixed

I think Colenzo had it right

[Priran]

yeah well that's just like your opinion man

[Francisco]

Destroyers right now are 53. Without merits and assuming 5 more skill points a level, that number goes up to 55 in 5 more levels. With h2h merits, it's 57, and with h2h merits and Faith Torque it's 58. While 174 delay a fist (for 348 combined delay) isn't quite as low as a Hornetneedle, whatever, it's still in the dagger range.

Trust me, I know MNK.

I get the "Destroyers right now are 53" if you mean with Faith Torque and merits.

But it doesn't seem you do, when you say it goes up to 55 in 5 levels without merits.

Destroyers @ 75 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(299 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 53 damage

Destroyers @ 76 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(304 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 54 damage

Destroyers @ 77 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(309 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 54 damage (54.99 actually, ouch)

Destroyers @ 78 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(314 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 55 damage

Destroyers @ 79 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(319 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 56 damage

Destroyers @ 80 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(324 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 56 damage

Destroyers @ 99 w/ Merits and Faith Torque:

floor(419 * .11) + 18 + 3 = 67 damage

...unless my math is totally misinformed.

EDIT: Oh, shit, I think I see what I did. I added merits twice since I changed my mind halfway as to whether or not I was assuming they should simply be assumed or not. Mathematical screw-up, nothing more.

[Lucavi]

So I hear spirit jump shares a timer with regular jump? Ugh, SE...

[Hyan]

Sounds pretty balanced to me.

Of course DRG's wanted something OP but tough luck!

[Lucavi]

Why not just throw out jump and replace it with spirit jump full-time then?

[Hyan]

Because now there is a choice. Just like with Collaborator/Accomplice for THF.

[Lucavi]

What: to add hate to your jump or not? Strange choice, but I assume it'll fall into that "shit is situational" rhetoric, like everything else does.

[Hyan]

Shit is indeed situational.

[SephYuyX]

Just ask CreamSoda.

Spirit Jump is not affected by Jump Recast merits.
