Archer %/s (KMS Unlimited and GMS Tempest)

I did a great deal of testing on this myself and the answer is very complicated.

I can answer 1 part categorically. Blaster installed will NOT activate magic arrows and I strongly suspect it does not activate AFA, but I haven't conclusively tested. Blaster does activate drain and poison.

Armor Piercing is the most complicated bit. It appears to me that Blaster installed may only activate Armor Piercing once until you attack with an active skill. This means that if you attack several times then install Blaster without continuing to attack, it can activate AP once and once only. It will not activate again until you attack with an active skill. I am speculating that Blaster installed does not contribute to the stack count, but this does not entirely explain things because there is supposed to be a 10% base activation rate.

I haven't done the testing yet, but I believe (?) Pinpoint Pierce in fact boosts other skills. I'll do the math and check it later this week because I know several other people that are confused.

Armor Piercing for Installation most likely activates once per the characters AP stack. Until the player's own AP stack is reset Installation won't activate AP again. Installation may also have its own AP stack count.


? Pinpoint is for itself. I remeber reading on Insoya that Pinpoint did not work that way.
