New Limit Break

[Cyrus-Wallace]

Same damage though.

Takes into account of combined ilvl of your entire party.

But hey, yeah. It's cool-looking and a good change.

It doesn't matter. TERAFLARE, AHK MORN. Now you need a Bahamut-egi that spams uses Flare Breath, any kind of debuff, Mega Flare with a special Gigaflare move.

It still bothers me that SE decided to call it Teraflare and not Megaflare. What the SMN's use looks like Mega/Gigaflare

I think there is a reason. Teraflare, is of course the more powerful version that bahamut uses in final coil. It's essentially his strongest attack. That's the one that he uses that makes everyone have to go stand in the ring and tank limit break 3 at the same time. With no mitigation, I think it does 40-50k to every raid member if not mistaken (correct me if wrong, doing from memory)... compares to about 6k per person on megaflare with no mitigation.

Bahamut uses Teraflare only once though, so would probably be easy to miss the name, I think he's out of the ring, and probably can only see the name from the combat log.

Also, the sound effect is Teraflare. But yea, I mean, Megaflare looks about the same.

Teraflare isn't just a stronger version of Mega and Gigaflare, it's the attack where he actually charges a beam from his mouth like in his classic appearances. The SMN LB3 is clearly what this game refers to as Megaflare(and Gigaflare), which Bahamut and the T9 boss uses.

Except in the patch notes it's called Teraflare.

Why is this even an argument?

Because they're giving the name of an attack that canonically ended 1.0, is used in a boss fight, to an attack which was also shown in a cinematic, is also used in two seperate boss fights, and has more-or-less the same particle effects/animation. I'd be a bit confused if my tortoise used hydropump, but it appeared as a little water gun squirt (when only seconds ago, I was on the receiving end of a hydropump).

Also from what I recall, all LB3s are functionally the same within the role (tanks have 50% damage mitigation, melee dps is single target, caster is targetted AoE, healer no-one-gives-a-shit)

But these are small details. We've only seen the build up portion of the attack anyway, not the full animation.

It's much more, 120 K for the damages, reduced to 20 K with the ring, reduced to 2 K with the tank LB3
