Otronif isn't even close. Just did the math and it's about ~150 damage off with uncapped pDIF.

And yeah, apex is 1-hit.

Its going to be hard to beat Phorcys for any 1 hit WS. Especially a 1hit WS with a weak (AGI,VIT,MND,INT,CHR) modifier.

Apex is a 4 fold WS (not a single hit) and Phorcys is ATK+5% not Ranged ATK+

Therefore I would Definally go with Otronif Harness (Tested and Otronif Doubles DMG that Phorcys does for RANGED WS).

Its 1-hit

Game description
Delivers an attack that deals triple damage and ignores defense of the target. Amount ignored varies with TP.

And I don't see AGI+21 and STR+4 beating WS damage+7%

Its a SINGLE attack that does THREE fold damage. Phorcys is going to be the king of single hit WS for a long time to come.

Wonder why.
