Revamp Elemental Spells to Be More Logical and Realistic

I knew it was an order of operations issue and worked out the order that was necessary, assuming the 50% resistance, based on my 32->34 example. You kept posting stuff about the order though, so I posted something else I thought you were talking about.

I basically don't understand what you're saying much of the time, and I suspect that you don't understand what I'm saying much of the time, so I don't know what to do.

I think this is a bad idea. I like how SE has more or less followed the Final Fantasy spell pattern from the first FF game to this game. The elemental spells work just fine. There's no reason to change them. It seems to me that changing them would be a waste of SE's resources and cost time and money. I'd much rather have the brilliant minds at SE working on new and interesting content rather than changing things that do not need to be changed.

Aside from the fact that I agree that this idea simply wouldn't work. "Cost time and money" makes little sense, it's not like they get paid per update/enhancement to the game. They get paid hourly or are on a salary (cannot confirm which), they don't get paid per job. Which, frankly, they seem reluctant to do some times.

No, FFXI breaks the pattern. In the offline games, Fire 1, Lightning 1 and Ice 1 were all on the same level, as I recall.
