    Valks formula is an approximation and known to prdouce incorrect results. Also, valks formula does NOT apply to each and every job and skill in the game.

    Edit: Another theorycrafting source, working on the actual game formula.

    At the same time my frustration while reading it was reaching critical levels. I always forget how there's a big part of FF community is it's own kind of breed, allergic to logic and facts. It's like we are in the Dark Ages....
