Okay, did some more tests, this time on Apex Crabs in Dho Gates. Thanks to Dachan for coming GEO to make sure my helixes don't suck
First up - Helix
Initial Damage - 19261
% health before Initial hit - 92%
% after - 80%
tocks - 73%, 67%, 61%, 55%, 48%, 42% (avg 6.3333)
Modus Veritas stuck @ 42%
tocks after modus - 36%, 29%, 23%, 17%, 11%, 4% (6.3333 avg)
mathy bits
Assumed helix cap at 9999 per tock
9999/19261 = 0.52
Initial damage showed 12%. Actual value must be between 12.0 and 12.99.
6.333/12.0 = 0.52775
6.333/12.99 = 0.4875
0.52 ratio of assumed cap falls between the range of 0.4875 and 0.52775.
Helix tocks cap, likely at 9999. Modus Veritas does not exceed the cap, and will only bring helix up to cap if it was not already there.
Since Modus halves duration, it is only worth using if the helix did under 5,000.
Okay. So what about Kaustra? I don't have pixie +1, hope it does enough damage...
Noctohelix closing SC for 4905.
Kaustra initial damage - 37,243 (yay!)
Expected tick damage of Kaustra - 37,243/3 = 12,414
(87-62)/3 = 8.33% per tick expected if uncapped.
Enemy HP before Kaustra - 87%
After - 62%
ticks - 56%, 47% (helix tock must have been included), 40%, 34%, 25%, 18%, 12%, 3%
Actual - subtracting 3%~ ((4905/9999)*6.333%) for the helix to close gravitation gives 62%, 56%, 50%, 43%, 37%, 31%, 24%, 18%, 12% (6.25% average per tick)
Expected value of 8.33, actual of 6.25~
6.25/8.33 = 0.75
9999/12414 = 0.805
Conclusion: Safe bet that Kaustra caps at 9,999 per tick as well.
I ran a few tests for each and two for Kaustra, and each had the same results.

Thx for doing the dirty work and well... guess destroying some illutions
[+]
So sad.... thanks for doing the ground work
Random fact:
The +Accuracy of the reforged Tupsimati now shows up on the /checkparam when it wouldn't before.
[+]
Was it ever tested if that +acc stat of mage RME was really effective or if SE's claim "trust us, it works even if it doesn't show!" was just *** and they fixed it now?
If anyone was conjecturing, the Helix damage was indeed 'ninja' capped during the Modus Veritas patch.
It used to be able to do at least 99k damage. I don't have any screenshots of that, but you can probably still find the video of a bunch of us one-shotting a Yovra (which has over 10k HP) if you youtube. Maybe if we bother them they'll change it back.. I just unlocked Helix II spells, what the real difference compared to Helix 1? juste 100 *** more damage? I hope that not only that! lol
Anyone have infos on Helix II and the differences compared to 1? The main difference is that helix 2 are not overwritten by helix 1 so if you get a good burst on one, you can continue to make sc that require light or dark elements without losing your helix damage.
Also can actually burst noctohelix II with pixie hairpin +1 when closing a dark sc with noctohelix. Outside of that not much difference.

Thanks for infos, well it is not revolutionary :/ Durations are the same and cap per /tic too?

But nothing from after /checkparam. Which was were the discrepancy was noticed. (I'm figuring it's a sort of acc buff similar to WSacc, which they changed to regular acc in the "121"s.) looking for a way to have GS use arbatel loafers when klimaform is up but normal nuke feet if it's down. i have a buff rule but it doesn't seem to work.
edit ok got klim to work but still not sure about obis, would also love to find a way to get obis to work with weather but i'm not sure how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Code

endQuote: edit ok got klim to work If you don't mind explaining, how did you get the Klimaform rule to work? I'm using the same lua as you but regardless of the day/weather ect it always equips my Merlinic Crackows. I had the same issue, this line had an "or" in it when it should say "and", as it is in his file; line 601
Code if spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' and spellMap ~= 'ElementalEnfeeble' then This should allow line 608 to work Code if state.Buff.Klimaform and spell.element == world.weather_element then equip(sets.buff['Klimaform']) end Bismarck.Speedyjim said: » I had the same issue, this line had an "or" in it when it should say "and", as it is in his file; line 601 Code if spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' and spellMap ~= 'ElementalEnfeeble' then This should allow line 608 to work Code if state.Buff.Klimaform and spell.element == world.weather_element then equip(sets.buff['Klimaform']) end You sir, just made my night! I had replaced Merlinic with Arbatel in all of my nuking sets just as a work around and it made me crazy every time I seen a nuke go off with Klimaform down. Thanks! In the GS shown above, it doesn't look like there is anything that handles putting you into a mode for bursts? How is everyone handling the spells when we are magic bursting vs when we aren't?
Also, and this may just be an issue with Organizer itself. But when using that GS posted above, it is only pulling like 60% of the items in the gearswap itself, only showing as 43 items matched. This is the only script I've noticed this with. soooo thinking about gearing sch and wondering where I should start.... like what sets to prioritize. should be able to start off in alluvion gear and work up from there.
*edited auto correct. ..* I actually just use the resist build and toggle into that. I nuke in full magacc to begin with. I tried using a BLM lua that already had a burst toggle but needed to much work around. So that was my work around.
What's the longest a Helix II can last for taking into account gear options, Dark Arts, and with/without Rasa? Seems to last a bit longer than Bio II.

If you're wanting to do solos like hiep you'll need about 20 different sets and be Asian. If you're just wanting to know what you need to really get started then for the love of god make a fast cast and a nuking set. Nothing is worse IMO than someone that takes longer to close a skill chain than it does the blm to cast a tier six spell.

If you're trying to focus on either macc or mab I'd focus more on macc hands down. If you don't get enough macc you'll be one of those people landing 99999 magic bursts in apex parties but then will hit a 500 tier 5 on high level mobs. See a lot of those. Also can't stress Fast Cast enough. Cap it as soon as possible. cool luckily Ive collected a good chunk of crap on my mule I'll just have to sift through it Thanks I'm sure I'll be back once I get it started.

Forgot about the boost from job points. Just shy of unweak if you die right after casting unresisted. Unless Arise of course. Looking for everyone's input here if applicable. In your opinion where is the best zone/mobs to solo for xp/cp on sch? At the moment im jumping from reisy tigers to woh gates acuexs.
Thank you Sylph.Staleyx said: » Looking for everyone's input here if applicable. In your opinion where is the best zone/mobs to solo for xp/cp on sch? At the moment im jumping from reisy tigers to woh gates acuexs. Thank you Best is likely quite subjective, and dependent on where other players are going/etc. That said, where I wound up grinding a lot of my SCH's JPs was in Moh Gates map 2, around I-8. If you look on the map, there's a short tunnel connecting the rooms at I-7 and I-8. Near the mouth of it in I-8, there are a decent number of Acuex spawns. In the tunnel, there are a couple of Umbrils, and the I-7 room has Umbrils and Dullahans. So you can clear the Acuex, kill the Umbrils, and pull however many additional Umbrils/Dullahans you need to bridge the gap to Acuex respawns in order to maintain chain. The room NE of that, J-6/7 also holds sufficient Umbril/Dullahan spawns to work. I found few people tended to make their way there, plus you can pretty happily stick to fire spells. If anyone could help explain something to me, I've been comparing nuke/burst sets to some friends and despite my gear seemingly being ahead (by both of our admission), I'm bursting for less, same NM, same pop so same day etc etc. We were taking turns bursting cryohelix II on the t1 bird in Reisen and he was killing me lol. I'm not sure if we're just overlooking some major difference or something, but here is my set for bursting cryohelix II (hope I did this right, never posted an item set before)...
http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/342336 Akademos Path C Merlinic Hood is macc15 matk28 burst10 Merlinic Jubbah is int10 macc18 matk32 Amalric Gages Path D Merlinic Shalwar is int7 macc30 matk36 Cape is int+4 helix+17 I have an okay'ish pair of merlinic pants with burst aug (macc30 matk18 burst10) but I liked the tradeoff using static earring and locus ring with this pair vs my burst pants and shiva+1 ring + friomisi earring. For some standout differences, he was using wretched body (just got back from break so no merlinic body yet), ghastly tathlum, comparable merlinic augs on head/legs. Buffs being the same and me being capped jp's and he's not quite at 2100 yet and with more vorseals I just can't explain what I'm missing other than he's a cheating little taru (jk if you read this ^^) I also tested to make sure my stuff was swapping in properly so its not a GS issue. Any thoughts and/or just obvious improvements beyond the endless fight with Oseem to max augs? Any help/guidance is appreciated. |
