    Wildfire WS

    Anybody know the modifiers/multipliers for the Empyrrean gun WS, Wildfire? It looks awesome. Was wondering how it compares to slugshot. Is the WS itself better than coronach/slugshot?

    So advanced...

    Judging by its AGI+10 bonus on the lv.85 gun, I would estimate tha AGI is a heavy modifier. Also, the majority of the empyrean weapon WSs have been showing very solid numbers, so it'd be a safe bet Wildfire will be as good as souvenir, and be far better than coronoch.

    This weaponskill deals fire damage similar to how Leaden Salute deals darkness damage. My best guess is that it is the same, AGI mod with added damage from MAB. I remember reading that it does quite a bit more damage than LS with the same gear+buffs. About 50-70% more IIRC. Check the thread on Final Form Magian Weapons at ~120 page mark. I'm sure it's there somewhere. I'd post raw data, but I still have a few VNMs to do while these coins burn a hole in my pocket.

    AGI modifier, MAB affects damage, bullet damage rating doesn't matter.

    From my use on it at a variety of events, Im led to believe that the Empyrean Gun is designed more with Corsair in mind being tied to an elemental WS.

    Overall the WS is better than Leaden Salute on anything that wont resist fire into the ground and the enmity reduction while ive only eyeballed it is not quite Coronach level enmity suppression. If someone could give me a way of testing the enmity, it'd be appreciated.

    In Abyssea, Wildfire is competitive with Slug Shot on Corsair simply because it's so easy to just buff yourself for Wildfire. 1.4-1.8 damage and that's without the Atma of the Smouldering Sky which should boost it even further.

    Use all the magical abilities available to you (like being able to read, maybe a search button), before firing off that shiny "New Topic" button.
