tldr; Is a damage screenshot thread /sigh

A bit late I know but I finally got to play about with our 2 hour a bit after it's update. (I have been Blu/Whm mostly recently to cover as many !! as possible in a trio)

First off, this is not a set proc, 5-7k was normal for every run, I have a number of slightly less impressive pictures I did not bother uploading all within this range. No brew either obviously.
Secondly, not piercing weak mob or +dmg% so I am actually kinda pleased with it even if it is in a scars area.





Total skillchain damage of 23,769 :D Most pleased.

I am not entirely sure why the darkness at the end was only 164% of the final WS. Would love to see it with set bonus but tbh I only ever equip more than 1 AF3+2 under CA, otherwise is legs onry.

Ninja Edit: Benthic Typhoon got cut off by print screen >.<

I have 0 experience with it in aby since I've only played blu one time since that update, but those numbers look pretty impressive to me. I did do some good dmg outside of it on skelly nm for staff wsnm. Kind of dissapointed on my part because it died on the second chain so i didn't get to close darkness, but w/e. What was the dmg on the benthic typhoon? I read your ninja edit, but am still curious. Also, what weapons were you using? My set is less than ideal tbh, but azure lore makes it look like I had awesome gear so pretty excited to get back on to finish gear sets.

Most times I try to do a nice big one it fails somehow or the mob die too quick :< I need a good mob to try out.

DMG wouldn't be as high as possible, he would be in his shell for good portion of it.

he's still a sissy inside... I don't notice much dmg reduction... at least not in comparison to melo melo or something like that. A good nm to chain on then may be Carabosse in first form then. She does close to nothing as far as aoe is concerned in first form and it isn't until she uses bene that she gets the pdt-

Edit... sorry I forgot that sc cure her... maybe not in her first form, but deff after bene... i dont' remember.

I can't honstely recall the Benthic, but it was doing 1.2-1.5k for the most part. As for my Weapons, STR Shamshir and Genbu's shield lol
I tend to never Dual Wield or /NIN really (one day I will finish this damn VIT sword but meh).

If I can be botheered I will put up all mah Blu Gear sets (there are many)
I am missing a number of things and I need to re-evaluate skill D tiers to make sure I am actually getting worthwhile dmg out of certain pieces at some point.

I see. Thanks for posting.

While I love Genbu's shield, I cannot ignore the overall greatness that is /nin. The survivability of blu is enough to withstand most things when dual wielding and allows better enhancements (situational of course) for second weapon slot vs shield.

The biggest reason that my blu is lackluster is space issues... between drk, pld, and blu, I fill up most all my field-available spots so I try to consolidate and get gear that multiple jobs can use and blu usually gets the shaft.
