Here ya go.



That was just running in and nuking in all haste gear, no food, JA, Fantod, Mori, drink or 2hr. Most BLU speed brew kills are like this as well, outside of Rani.

I didn't, just casted those 4 spells, lol.

However, there is a post on BG in which a BLU did use Physical spells and got underwhelming numbers (3000~5000 dmg). The conclusion from BG math whizes came out to be that fSTR caps too soon and dINT has no cap (and/or 999+ Magic Attack goes much farther).

Should be able to do bigger physical numbers @ 99 with more Blue Magic Skill, but by then anything in abyssea will be an afterthought, lol.

Well yeah fstr caps low.... but the stat mods don't. Assuming it still increases wsc at 999 stats you theoretically should be able to hit some rather spectacular numbers. Though it would help alot if you gave the mob some form of def down and/or sneak attacked

Heres the other BLU's post that I was talking about. Very underwhelming indeed. D: I'm sure SATA Vanity Dive or Benthic Tyhoon would do something fierce as well.

Lol yeah savage blade did more... which makes no sense at all. Then again doing as much dmg with only 200ish stat as you do with 999 makes no sense either. Unless it's blue skill was a bit underlvl'd and it's def is rather high so your pdif is sucking hard

The second crop from top left has Quad. Continuum. An underwhelming 4146.

Yeah pretty much Blue Magic Skill vs Level Correction of pDIF. Quad prolly will do 5~8k at best. Just go Charged Whisker and Thermal Pulse all of the way with brew with Savage Blade & Regurgitation thrown in.

I really don't get that one... I mean the savage blade healed it for 7k. And well quad has effectively much higher ftp and stat mods aren't much lower... it's almost making me think that all that str isn't contributing to blu attack like it should. That and half the hits missed

Can physical spells be resisted? :S

Only thing I can think of aside from maybe Shin decided to use a brew too lol.

Physical is just hit and miss. But quad is 4 hits.

Best bet is prolly to chain-cast magical blu spells and hope you don't get interrupted and/or heal him.

I would guess he just got one or two hits with it then. :S

Assuming brew gives 999+ Acc, that wouldn't make sense. lol

I used brew as a BLU yesterday. I only used phys spells so cant really compare but I will say this, do NOT use phys spells. My BLU is pretty well geared and the dmg I did was dissapointing. Many have shown that magic WS's do more dmg then phys ones, so I guess phys damage has a soft cap or something on its damage. While using phys spells is faster then magic the fact is that the damage is unimpressive. You are prolly better off using magic spells.

I don't think there's any cap on physical spells or anything, it's simply that level correction doesn't affect magic stuff the way it does physical. I also wonder if brew actually raises your atk beyond 999 and only displays up to that. That might explain the discrepancy between physical blu spells and that savage blade up there.

Assuming the mob doesn't resist dark damage, Sanguine Blade is pretty broken during brew as well.

7k from a ws during brew when you dont need the hp restore due to regen is pretty underwhelming lol

?

Somehow I severely doubt an NM's magic resistance is going to reduce that to 7k.

who cares about being healed after using brew? you can't get hurt more than 50ish damage at a time max, and you are getting 300/tic regen. it's only practical to do sanguine blade if it does good damage, as the above poster did.

You'd be surprised. no screenie to prove it, but someone brewing Rani only managed 4kish Sanguine blades on him. He's resistant as all hell to dark magic, so it does play a part.

Anything aside from Crit Dmg.+ won't make much, if any, impact since brew caps your stats.
