I'm just gearing up my bard and can't seem to find the stat cap based on the Flame bow.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I gathered, stat caps are based on a weapon's dps.

So if the stat cap for Garuda's Spine (22.90 DPS) is around 350/310 piety/dex, would it be safe to say that the cap on the Flame bow (26.59 DPS) should be somewhere north of 350/310?

He doesn't seem to have inherently higher defense or stats than the regular version, only higher HP/Regen and has Absorb Defense move.

positioning affects damage more than anything. because you have to stop shooting to move into position.

also accuracy plays a bigger role. but yes. he seems to take the same amount of damage

Spine has a DPS of 40.97 and caps around 350

Flame LT bow is 40.24

Ifrit bow is 36.74 and caps around 310

so for every full point of DPS you need roughly 10 more of your main stat.



Flame bow probably caps around 345. There's a formula floating around somewhere. but that's your ballpark. might as well shoot for the 350 for when you get your spine.

Wow I was waay off with the DPS numbers haha. Thanks you for clarifying
