PSA: Multi-kill limit.

[radioactive_lego]

During an attempt to set a benchmark/first "record for most instantaneous kills" we established that only 16 mobs can be killed instantaneously, additional mobs will suffer no damage.

This was tested with BLM spell Flare and WHM spell Holy on 31 highly agitated lvl 4-9 creatures. XD

.... and knowing is half the battle.

Totally gonna try this later >.>

16 mobs at once?
That's kind of an arbitrary number for a multi-kill limit...wonder if there's some kind of logic behind it.

2 Bytes of mobs lol

2 Bytes of mobs lol

That's actually one nibble (2 bytes is 512, or 8 bits +1 bit).

That makes me wonder...would a player also only take damage from the first 16 mobs? :3

[Tiggy]

Are you sure there just weren't so many mobs that they were pushing each other out of the way?

no, they would take from all.

It was kinda hard to tell. I was "tanking" them with pally and all 16/31 were not beating my in-combat healing rate. Smitty Razzlefoot gave them the Nuke.

I know how S-Ranks feel now... I can tell you that.

I'd be negatively surprised if a caster LB wasn't able to take out more than those 16, care to try that too?
