Sorry lol, but this is a pretty tough question. I wanted someone to try and tackle it because firstly, I am too lazy to try and figure it out myself and secondly, knowing the answers would highly interest me as well as other FP mages. :f6:
Hypothetically, for bossing against a neutral boss, what would be the succession of moves which yield the highest DPM (and what kind of DPM would FP AMs expect to get with them):
a. Spam paralyze + cast poison mist every 40 seconds for stacking DoT?
b. Cast Comp + PB every 10 seconds, cast mist every 40 seconds, and spam paralyze in between?
c. Just spam paralyze and throw in meteor every 30 seconds?
d. Spam paralyze continuously without any other skills thrown in?
e. Spam Big Bang + meteor every 30 seconds + cast FD every 10 seconds for DoT?
(all skills would be maxed and ifrit would be used throughout)
Now, I'm leaning towards a being the right answer, what do you think however? And to make this even more complex, what about fire-weak, and poison-weak bosses? Yeah, lots of questions which have not really been answered and will not be directly answered before GMS can actually test it.
Edit: dang, I should've put this thread in Maple Q & A for more responses xP
