WHM Merits? - FFXIAH.com

It's actually pretty much impossible to test the finer details, due to lag. It is, however, extremely easy to disprove the "50% additive cap" theory that I hear thrown around a lot.

I guess I'll expound a bit. I tried taking off everything except Light Arts, Cure Clogs, Pantaloons+2, and of course merits. That should give me 57% total which is well over the supposed 50% cap. Just eye-balling it, nothing scientific, but Cures finished around the 53% mark.

Using everything I listed in the quote further up the thread, normal Cures finish at about 42%. With Celerity, they finish even faster at under 25%.

If there is a 50% additive cap, then my first test should've been at max cast time reduction. Adding more stuff shouldn't have made me cast even faster but it did, and by a margin large enough that it can't just be due to me eyeballing it.

The writing's on the wall. I'm not saying the cap isn't 80%, or even 60%, but it sure as hell ain't 50%.
