Ask a Soul Master/Dawn Warrior Thread

MP3 has a holy weak mob there, though it's half and half. Most of the holy weak monsters though are an alternative, sadly to say, though we could FINALLY make use of Extra D's.

Also, I missed a slot for 4 and 5 orbs in my table =/

I am leaning towards it being 1.4x damage though since other jobs have non-nerfed 3rd Job skills with fewer SP, like Arrow Rain, Energy Drain.


Alright. Since Advanced Combo changes your base damage for 1~5 orbs, but still maintains the formula used by Combo Attack, we can use these two tables to determine if Combo Attack Lv20 @ 5 Orbs does 140% damage;
The following table would prove that it doesn't:

Level	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
20	140%	143%	146%	150%	153%	164%	168%	172%	176%	180%

The following table would prove that it does:

Level	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
20	140%	145%	150%	155%	160%	164%	168%	172%	176%	180%

Seeing the formula adjustment to fit a 1.4x modifier for Combo Attack Lv20 @ 5 Orbs applied here, it looks much smoother and there's a less significant jump from 5 to 6 orbs in damage.

Current formula
Combo Multiplier, 1-5 orbs = [Advanced] Combo Attack % + floor((orbs - 1) * (Combo level / 6)%)
Supposed Cygnus Formula:
Combo Multiplier, 1-5 orbs = [Advanced] Combo Attack % + floor((orbs - 1) * (Combo level / 4)%)

so Combo Attack > Soul Charge + Holy weak monsters in theory ? or is it the other way around?
