[Mini Guide] Understanding gear and damage calculation

[zenkizero]

I was tested, but the result seem different.
My char:
- With Full Element: 1.800.000 att, 88% fire, 295% CD, 56%FD
- Replace 2 L 90 Fire Jade to 2 Champion Jade with %att: 2.000.000, 71% fire, 295% CD, 56%FD
But testing with Golem, Dmg output with Champion Jade still less than Full Fire jade (about 5% dmg total)
What am I wrong ?

i haven't seen a pink colored damage numbers, that's awesome

[myon]

I see.
I guess that's gonna be hard after the buff, debuff balance
Thanks

If you recall, there was a time we saw pink numbers from sting breezers and crusaders. These were a result of the class having their stats boosted excessively due to light atk stacking and hence, were able to do 'max' damage, maybe 20x of their atk? Anyway this patch raised the limit so that it's possible to hit higher now. However in the current era I don't think any class can hit those pink numbers anyway.

Deym it. this forum's a PITA
I have waited for 24 hours for forum mod to approve my post since commenting-on-a-reply-needs-forum-moderation
And it got no approval
anyways, here's what I wanna ask about ..

Any clues about this, Xeno?
It's included in the patch notes

BTW, Thanks on the answer on my previous question
Now I understand why some classes that increases STATS goes beyond ATTACK cap limit

[Xenocho]

I will post this here since you brought this up and this will get your attention:


Thank you btw, this is important information I left out.

[Xenocho]

Okay I kinda got the answer. Yes it appears there is a cap to the amount of ATK % from skills.

[Xenocho]

Could you share a screenshot which mouse over the stats? This is rather interesting. You might be right that the limit is 100%, but I would like to see the screenshot for confirmation.

[myon]

Oh, god .. this forum is giving me headaches ..

Here's an example.. and this honestly has been bugging me.


From the pic above, after activating my Class Mastery which gives 50% attack buff, max attack became 835,387
Now, as you can see, there's a 30% cheese

After picking up the 30% cheese, my max attack became 930,794
Notice that my max magic attack is 296,953
And you can see there's a 50% cheese

After picking the 50% cheese, my physical attack remained the same where as my magic attack increased.

I know that there's a cap buff on nests
As to what's the basis of it, that's what I wanna know

I wanna know if activated CM like mine (tempest) counts towards buff cap while other classes that got a CM that passively increases attack not included.
Thanks, xeno

[Xenocho]

Oh, because you can only have 1 type of each food item buff. If you eat 30% cheese and then eat 15% milk, you will find that the 15% milk replaces the 30% cheese effect.

Does this answer your question?

[myon]

I am talking about getting a 30% cheese, then taking another 100% cheese
The attack was already capped at on or below 30% cheese
Something like that ..

[Xenocho]

What do you mean by 'it won't go up?' Can you share an example for me to look at?

Useful information will be class and situation, whether nest or raid.

[myon]

Hello, Remmy
I got a question .. what's the basis for attack cap on nests?
I have been wondering .. since even tho i got max 475k attack at town .. the max attack cap i get is only around 820k and it won't go up

[MK-ULTRA]

As a Dark Summoner and Soul eater mains i find this very timely for me as im torn between using unique attack 8.5% mttack jades versus 8.50% elem jades. Gearing up with poor knowledge of what to prioritize would be a devastation and waste of Gold. Thanks for the effort and dedication of these Godlike players making guides and helping us understand the game well. Keep up the good work! +20!

The guide is updated. This will most likely be final unless there are request for certain details or improvement. Thank you and have a good day.
