Iridal Staff

[Demon6324236]

No the HQ Ice staff. I was getting even 4000 shots on Jasconius compared with 4700's yesterday. Only thing I don't know is what elemental day it was yesterday, so I can't really do a scientific comparison.

Ok, well that does kinda look bad, looks like this staff might not be all it should be ;;

The only reason I mention it is because it's consistent 4k's, not even random numbers, but even 4000 after 4000.

[Spiritreaver]

What Atmas you using Wint?

[Wint]

Beyond, Merciless Matriarch, and Minikin. The previous day I had the same exact setup except for the HQ Ice Staff and was getting well over 4000, 4700 at one point. I don't remember the elemental day however. Hopefully when staff prices come back down I can do some comparisons.

Well damn. Two marks(no att/ratk boooo!!!) against it in my book now, though even the few inventory slots i got back still pulling ahead.

I'm kind of regretting it. I have been testing it in Aby Vunkerl on Jasconius, and it's definitely doing less damage than my HQ ice. Seems to cap at 4000 damage, I got 5/8 at 4000, a few under 4k, and one 4227. Overwhelmingly evenly at 4000 exactly though.

Yes, because Chat loses the MAB.

[Wint]

Yes, because Chat loses the MAB.

Oh really? I hadn't heard that.

[saevel]

Yes, because Chat loses the MAB.

What MAB?

No ele staff ever had +MAB on them. They just had affinity+1/2 which where direct 10/15% damage bonus's.

[Zeargi]

I don't want to assume, but does this staff also lower all the prep costs for Avatars by the respected value of -2/-3?

The new staff's damage bonus is calculated like maigan staves--it is additive to atma affinity, not multiplicative. The 4000 vs 4700 works out to be about right for the 4700 being on iceday with a twilight cape. On iceday, the new staff should do ~5000.
