Larger sample = better data.
Questions that I tried to tackle are:
1) What is the distribution for Mikage with 7 shadows?
2) Does Mikage trigger during WS?
3) Does Mikage really only trigger on main hand?
4) Does Mikage's multi attack trigger before or after DA/TA/QA?
5) Does Daken surpass the 8-hit / round limit?
Test setup so far: Nin/Dnc with 0 DA/TA/QA in gear, no shuriken and as low STP as possible but high acc. Went to the uragnite (as their abilities do not stripe shadows) and summoned a trust tank and some support for haste. Only one katana in main hand (was my Kannagi! still 90 ._.). I wrote two macros: one that used Blade: Rin with an "/echo WS TP <tp>" and one just to report TP with "/echo TP <tp> round".
Then I let Amchuchu get hate get shadows up and pop mikage. I then start spaming the TP_Round macro and whenever Im >2k TP I use Blade: Rin via macro. That way I can check the TP returns afterwards and calculate attacks/round. This is not perfect as I ignore missed attacks but I assume caped acc so 99% hit rate. Hopefully the introduced error is small enough.
Result so far:
1 Attack: 1 // Assuming it was a 2 where one missed
2 attacks: 23
3 attacks: 15
4 attacks: 15
5 attacks: 10
6 attacks: 12
7 attacks: 0
8 attacks: 0
Total: 76
/* Will run mikage 5-10 times and update the table */
All WS returned 100 TP while normal hits were 72 TP per hit.
(First assumed) Results:
- Even with 7 shadows Mikage grants at most 6 attacks (which will make it harder to test the daken thing :/)
- Mikage does not trigger on WS
- 7 Shadows seem to grant at least 2 hits
Super strange thing was: when I hit WS macro I very shortly have 72 TP but then immediately get to 100 TP. Without a further attack round. Any ideas why that happens?
EDIT: Problem solved: Ionis Save TP kicks in.
