The Ultimate Black Mage Resources with Damage Calculator

[Waliel]

As for the claims that the reporters covered everything, and that the live letter doesn't say things it says, and that the live letter does say things it doesn't say: lol.

Also NDA and stuff for things Squenix hasn't told us about.

Demon Skrit of casting is missing on the "The Ultimate BLM Resources with Damage Calculator by Puro Strider"

dunno if its been posted before or not, but the Demon Skrit (gear lv 120) is the 2nd best BLM pants with Int: "57.364", just slightly before the high allagan breeches (gear lv 110)with Int: "57.307"

(was just checking my gear again, and came across the very helpfull "The Ultimate BLM Resources with Damage Calculator by Puro Strider" list again...)

I,ve never considered demon gear better than 130. I'd just use the augmented chest + pants and use sachertorte instead of flint caviar for T13. Or something like that.

The closest thing I saw of Enochian giving its own effect, was a description stating "in addition to the buff granted by enochian", but I can't find the source. If Enochian does give a stand alone buff, I can't think of what it would be. Based off the video, the damage buff couldn't have been anything more than 5% lol. I dfoubt they'd increase our Crit Rate (DRG in our party would be godly).

Thanks, that was the line i was looking for.

And i am 100% certain it is a line given by Yoshida himself during the live letter (don't remember exactly where, must have been during his blm presentation).

Tracked it down, the source I can find is GAME Watch (which I did not see before), explicitly says it's a damage up buff as well.

Well then, my memory suck Thanks for finding the good place then lol, and yeah, might explain why so few heard about it then ^^'

Well here's to hoping its at least 10% minimum bonus.

The wording is probably off imo but I think we will get enochian at 56 for a damage boost then 58 30 seconds to use fire 4 occasionally then at 60 the ability to reset enochian.

As weak ad the logic is we got blizzard 3 last iirc.

[SunnyHirose]

The same source says we get Enochian at level 60.

An anonymous poster, speculating from the Live Letter footage, said it seems to be 10% (evidence: normal Fire 855 -> should be ~1539 in AF3, Enochian + AF3 was 1764; a B3 without Enochian was 813, with it was 899). I'm not gonna double-check that.

Makes me wonder how certain classes are going to compete with BLM from what's been shown. Leylines is gonna be +5-10% DPS upgrade or so, having F4/B4 in our rotation is gonna be another +10% or so, Sharpcast is gonna add a little bit, Enochain is apparently a bit of an increase, and as our iLVL increases SS will get stronger and stronger. I would imagine if say we do 560-600 DPS in current gear on a dummy we'd do 700 minimum, same gear, before Foe's/Selene.

If say we're getting buffed more than melee are getting buffed, I wonder if they're trying to bring casters closer to melee. In 2.0 casters were originally quite close, perhaps they're trying to shy away from melee being absolute king. Guess we'll see in 2 weeks.

Astro + SCH please. Fey Glow + Attack up + Haste + Leylines + Raging strikes = Yummmmm.
