COR had ability to do dmg on higher end stuff during VW era kinda because of atma/atmacite boosting wildfire dmg. Now no more atma/atmacite, and weapon dmg goes up for physical WS, WF may just fall further and further behind.



I know it's not Wildfire but still relevant.

In any case Wildfire is only good cuz of the dAGI thing. Outside of Abyssea that doesn't matter. It's the quirk of the dAGI that made it so good. I don't think SE intended WF to be so strong, I feel like it was an oversight. I really, truthfully feel like WF was meant to be as worthless as Cloudsplitter, the other elemental emp ws.
