SMN - knowing the class (part 1)

[FUNgineer]

The parse worked by counting dmg dealt to ifrit, so the 7273 dmg only counted once because the limit break only hit ifrit once. without the limit break I did around 75.5k to the boss.

I was worried for a bit too because I thought the limit was calculated as 7273x4 dmg until my friend told me that this was dmg on ifrit alone lol

I'd love to believe that, but I think your friend may be wrong.

57k non-LB damage to Ifrit and only 13,330 DOT damage to Ifrit means that you'd have to have done 44k non-DOT, non-pet, non-LB damage to Ifrit, which is more than half your total damage. Everything I've heard about SMN paints this as unlikely in the extreme.

5x 7k LBs (Ifrit and 4 Nails), though, puts you at about 50k non-LB damage comprising 13k DOT, 13k normal, and 24k pet. This seems more likely, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
