I've already told you how Shadow Partner works. I don't understand why you keep trying to disagree with me. All those buffs combined make Shadow Partner do 200% damage because it in fact does count those buffs twice.

And yes, it's a big pineappleing difference you get 1.05x higher damage than I calculated, that totally makes up for the 2000%/s difference between the two jobs.

That's funny, because I don't recall you once saying that Shadow Partner counts the buffs twice.
You just kept saying that "Shadow Partner gets multiplied by multipliers".
Again, no pomegranate.

I'm not trying to disagree with you; I'm trying to understand what exactly it is you're saying.
There's no thread that I've found that explains the nuances of Shadow Partner, so all I have to go on is Dusk's thread that simply says: "Notes: Deals damage based on a multiplier of your total damage."

So if you want someone to understand something, you may want to try actually explaining it.
Believe me, I'm listening. However, if someone doesn't understand something, repeating yourself near verbatim isn't gonna help.

All you had to do was show me a complete formula or point me somewhere that explains how Shadow Partner works.

As for Blast's additional minimum critical, wrong is wrong.
Seriously, can't you just say "oh, I didn't know that" instead of trying to justify it with "it doesn't make a difference"?

Meanwhile, I still have no clue how you arrived at the multiplier you did.
Even not counting the minimum critical, it'd be:
(1.5 + 1.2) / 2 = 1.35
1.35 * .57 + 1 * .43 = 1.1995

I have no honest idea how you'd get 1.182.
