MP / PIE Formula

[Airikay]

Party bonus is 2.83%. And its not rounded down.

Party bonus is 2.83%. And its not rounded down.

I at least doubled checked myself after reading this, and realized I meant to write 3% not 4% for the party bonus.
As for it being 2.83%, I can say "Not possible, but I'll go ahead and do some more tests with this in mind"
Ran tests on my scholar using 399 and 400 PIE as base, then joined a party.

Expected result----------------------------------------- Actual Result:
399 * 1.0283 = 410.2917 -------------------------------410
400 * 1.0283 = 411.32 ---------------------------------412

My conclusion: It's 3%. But maybe the party bonus multiplier is different based on your job/class. I'll do some more testing.

I believe that calling your choco will put you in a party for the bonus but I'm not 100%. I know when I'm on SCH and call my choco the little PIE lights up in the party frame.

Correct, or at least not 2.83%, regardless... As BLM Ive been looking around for formula for this (wondering how SCH piety bonus effects the party). To get the 251PIE tier for a 5 fire rotation, you need 244PIE (adding the 7PIE from SCH bonus puts you at 251). Seems to be fairly common knowledge for BLM. If it was a 2.83% boost, with 244PIE you would only receive 6.9052 extra PIE, and (unless it's somehow rounded up) you wouldn't hit the 251 tier. At 3% you get a 7.32 boost, making your PIE 251.32 (rounded down as you said) to 251. Keep up the good work!
