Black Mage

[Nemekh]

I wouldn't use any of omono's threads as a source reference, however, as one of the people that worked on all the substat formulae and spent all the hours parsing Direct Hit to begin with, many of my replies should be in both of those - especially as one is Gouka's thread. (my reddit handle is also Nemekh)

My source spreadsheet with substat formulae as we know them is here.

As for worth of substats and what to use when - that gets tricky to answer because of tier math (substats are step functions because they are integer math based). You can't just do relative point increases because not all steps are equal in point total. So what we end up doing is working towards what calculates the highest expected damage potential.
