New BLU spells 9/8 Update
There are worse uses for your MP if you're just /THF CASA'ing ***, but yeah aside from that and its use as a hate tool and prepping before fights I'm not finding it worth casting.

Today I got to test it out in Abyssea on mandies. With pizza my non CA damage was around 400 to 800 with a high of 880. With CA from 650 to a high of 1173. I also got to test Quadratic Continuum for a little bit. With Fantod and CA I got around 700-1.4k with a high of 1475. As for the gear I was casting in, I'll post it in a second. Fantod stacks with blu spells? :O Edit: Yeah it did for me. That is pretty suggestive that it works for spells. Would probably have to stack it a bit to know for sure but that's promising information at least.
Also to note for anyone, Savage + QC = Distortion. I just tested on terrigan mobs. So I assume QC is of Distortion property.
Edit: Vanity Dive skill chained with Red Lotus for Scission, and RLB is Detonation and Liq, so it must be Scission property Ragnarok.Agerknux said: Also to note for anyone, Savage + QC = Distortion.

With just CA, usually about 2300 QC, with Efflux, I've gone up to 4k QC + ridiculous distortion(with skillchain bonus set =D) Ragnarok.Agerknux said: I've gone up to 4k QC + ridiculous distortion(with skillchain bonus set =D) Ramuh.Sekundes

Anyone know what's the spells modifiers?
( Goblis Rush and QC to be exact, should I use big 3 sets or STR build? Final Sting Slashing
stupid stupid spell.............. Goblin Rush Blunt Vanity Dive Slashing stacks with sneak attack Whirl of Rage Slashing very High damage on campain mobs 1600~ with CA and efflux Benthic Typhoon Piercing(cone AOE) Stacks with sneak attack getting 1600~2200 on bunnys in cape~ Quadratic Continuum Piercing Quad. Continuum needs to be renamed to Rape Continuum. This spell is INSANE. Peaked at 2170 with Efflux + CA against worms in Abyssea. Had the BLMs complaining that I was outdoing their strongest nukes lol.
And it's piercing? Altana help any piercing weak mob that crosses our paths now... Also, Final Sting is quite good actually, if you can prepare for using it ahead of time. Got 1292 from Abyssea worms with CA, but got killed immediately by Sandspin, it was hilarious. Arcari said: Quad. Continuum needs to be renamed to Rape Continuum. This spell is INSANE.

I fired up CA + Efflux and let off a QC...a hot 4.2k On the other note, how are you guys even damaging with Final Sting? I was testing damage in Terrigan and kept doing 0 damage. On the gobs, the cockatrice and the raptors. What am I doing wrong? Arcari said: Quad. Continuum needs to be renamed to Rape Continuum. This spell is INSANE.

People have been theorizing that it may work kind of like Zantetsuken, with better results if the monster is closer to it's max HP or has a lot of HP. Not set in stone, though.
final sting is stupid it doesnt matter if you can get 1K out of it or not there is QC that is 3 more MP does twice the DMG and doesnt kill you.

it is by far the worst spell we got this update... Don't be too quick to write it off... I did 1400 damage or so with it in abyssea (using every JA I have), then went to Dunes and failed to kill a sheep... twice... I'm actually wondering if the "damage proportional to HP" refers to mob HP rather than your own.
edit: okay, casting it on a mob when I have 1hp made it do 0 damage... Maybe it depends on both your HP somehow.

Yeah, either it's mad broken or there's some strange factors involved. From the sounds of things it includes monster's HP and caster's HP. Maybe a percentage based on the caster's Current HP/Max HP(which would basically make low HP casts do no damage). At max'd HP, you'd presumably do 100% of the spell's effect, which is based on the target's HP(in the event you weren't resisted).
And, like said earlier, it could be mad broken, and we'll either see a fix for it in the future. Or it could remain useless/broken forever. Edit: One way to test this would be to cast on three mobs with similar current and max hp. First mob cast at 100% of your current HP. Second mob cast at 50% of your current HP. If it does 50% damage, then that could be the factor we're looking for. Try a third mob at something like 25% if the correlation isn't 1:2. Maybe it does more dmg the less hp you got ;)
Ramuh.Dasva said: Maybe it does more dmg the less hp you got ;) 2.2K is the max i have gotten and i can do that with vertical cleave already Caitsith.Jar said: Ramuh.Dasva said: Maybe it does more dmg the less hp you got ;) it doesnt as in your hp being low does not make it do more damage its more like a 95% resist rate at lower HP
95% resist rate? So sometimes it will still do good damage while at 1HP? Or will it never do good damage at 1HP?
If the latter, it's probably an equation like... Damage = ((Caster's Current HP) / (Caster's Max HP)) * (Rest of the equation)) So at full HP, you'll get the full benefit of the rest of the equation. But, if you're at 1/1250, you'll consistently get your *** handed to you in damage. Since that's reducing whatever damage you would have done by diving it by 1250. Square Enix rounds down damage, so that's why we'd see 0s. Offline
