Waltz Potency Cap (at Least From Gear)

Just passing on something I stumbled over when I noticed a discrepancy in my Waltz #s. If this was already found, my apologies if I just missed the memo, but it's always handy to know caps on +% boons. /whm my base waltz3 is 397 and was using Phurba, Sonia's Plectrum, Roundel Earring and Dancer's Casaque each time.

Unweak on my way to campaign NPC and use Waltz3 before tags for 500 (+26% in gear). Waltz3 again after tags (+36% from Plectrum campaign bonus), only get 516. Full +10% increase should've been ~539. Take some damage and reuse Waltz3 w/o Roundel equipped (+31%) and get 516 again.

Crunch numbers and get:
516 / 397 = 1.299748 (and in reverse 397 * 1.30 = 516.1)
So I'm pretty sure potency can only be increased by 30% from gear enhancements (no clue on other things that can boost it though).

Considering the most +% available outside of a campaign battle is +31% (Phurba, Roundel, AF1 body, AF2 head, Plectrum), it isn't THAT bad. It will definitely make easier judging of any new Potency+% gear SE chooses to release.

This was found out awhile back. Not trying to be rude but yea.

I figured it might've been, but search turned up nothing so :\
And its not being rude, i even put in the OP it may have been known already lol

It's an interesting read if you want to check it out btw. Waltz potency.

Yeah, I put all the information together:
Waltzes

Off topic but man I just wanted to say thanks for all the work you do to help us figure this game out.

You can also get up to 4% on augmented dance shoes beside what you listed, (meaning you can cap w/o roundel), but yeah.

np dawg!

Dance shoes were there, but I forgot to put (Augment) after it. Changed now so it's accurate! Some day I'll figure out where the actual Augment tag is and use it.

Oh, I meant from the OP's post :D

Ah ok, I saw that post when i searched but didnt see anything about the cap being tested (maybe i skimmed too fast). Guess if i had read it a lil slower i wouldnt have made my wall-o-text lol

FUUUUU. That stupid quest keeps taunting me with 3% only!

They fking need to stop making caps on stuff like this.

Well honestly cap isnt that relative w/ there being so little potency+ gear. Hell for the longest time the cap was +10% because Casaque was the only gear that boosted it lol
