      Gladiator will only outdps Moonlord if
      a.)Gladiator has far better gears than the Moonlord in comparison, OR
      b.)The Moonlord user is stupid in terms of skill rotation.

      Gladiators used to have a chance to out-dps MLs during the 9s FA era.

      But, that time's just a memory now. lol

      Even if the bug still worked today Gladiator would still most likely never be able to outdps Moonlord since Finish Attack is only strong when enemy is below 50% health. And the bug only works on normal Finish Attack EX, and not on the instant.

  • #4
    So can anyone tell us if this is a nerf/buff for DA or doesn't really change that much? I'm not a very smart person.

      Most likely a boost. Even if their STR% and Atk% gets nerfed, All of their damage skills got boosted by a lot.

      For anyone who's wondering about the DA boost, I did some math to check if it is indeed a boost, and if it is, by how much exactly. Here are the numbers:

      To sum up: it's basically a 40% boost over the current DA

        For anyone interested, my methodology is as follows:

        Current stats are taken from in-BTG stats (PATK and STR) before and after using the Avenger Force to get 90% STR bonus.

        I got the PATK increase for the adjusted (post-change) stats by dividing the PATK gained per point of STR increase, and multiplied that by the gained STR after a 50% increase. The base PATK for pre-50% increase was computed by removing the 30% from the current patk, and multiplying it with 15% to get the adjusted base (town) PATK.

        After that it was basically just a matter of multiplying the resulting PATK to the skill's damage%. Since there are no changes to how the Dark Avenger Transformation affects skill damages, these numbers will scale accordingly when you go into DA mode.
