Sorry if this has been answered before (I couldn't find it).

Can I swap all my enhancing+ gear in precast for Temper, then swap it back out for haste/attack/whatever gear once casting is done? Or will that cause me to lose the boost Temper would receive from the enhancing+ gear?

I've been math-ing out the benefits of keeping my enhancing+ gear on while engaged and, with the exception of Temper, the numbers aren't very good. Boost to enspells and spikes seem too minimal, and gain spells look like they cap just with our base skill.

Thanks for any info.

As far as I can tell, for any enhancing spell you just need the +skill on for midcast.

Except for Enspell IIs, I think.

I don't know if you can swap back to your normal gear for Temper. My tests were done without Spellcast (TPed in the enhancing gear), so I can't conclusively say one way or the other.

Bgwiki page for Gain spells.
Not possible to cap Gain/Boost with your natural skill, need at least 96 more from gear/merits to do so.

Oh okay. I keep forgetting that the info on ffxiclopedia is sometimes outdated. Thanks.
