So that was a bit dissapointing to say the least. So I will have spell enhancement testing comeing up once I get some sleep I suppose to see if it has any effects on that and that should also accomplish to see if its effect qd acc as well. The other possibility is that it could be broken.


Update:

Went out to Altep with my 80WHM alt and did some test with paralyze. I was seeing significant proc rate with boots as compared to no boots and no QD buff at all. More testing needs to be done but from what I can see it looks like a buff to the strength of the debuffing which goes along with some things ive seen around the web.

I still find it weird that theres no damage increase though.

From what ive read it gives almost 2% magical haste.

Question: Are there any other items that have the same type of text as the boots and hat but do different things? If not im begining to believe these are broke. Wouldnt be the first time SE has messed up some of our armor, hi to you relic body and mirke body.

Could potentially enhance the additional elemental effects of QD, more Slow%+ on Earth Shot for example.

I just did a lot of Pascerpot runs with shout groups and Div-e Sepid runs as well. Better use of time and far far far easier on getting seals.

Updated OP

Ive noticed a damage increase on random shots but ive noticed it outside of spells being cast. Its weird.

Hey look! Something I should have known off the top of my head!

I've tested these, and my findings are the same as the ones posted on BG. After the first shot with the boots equipped, all subsequent shots of the same element within a 15 second window will get a dmg increase. So if you QD1, QD2, RD, QD3, QD4, the first shot will get no boost, but will allow the three shots immediately following it during the 15 sec window to deal increased dmg. The dmg is static for each subsequent shot.

I haven't tested it with magic yet, nor have I tested it with another Cor to see if they gain an increase to all shots while the effect is active. The last test will probably be the most important, because it will show if it's a self buff or a mob debuff.

What is your gear to get QD that high?

Did some more testing and found that if you qd 1 mob, then a different one in succession, the bonus is not applied. This made me think that the enhancement isn't on the pc, but a debuff on the mob.

Next test was with Wildfire, did two control ws on a spider in Abyssea-Mis on lightsday for 2930. With the same buffs, I then used Fire Shot, Fire Shot, Wildfire and did 3220. Again, a 10% increase on magical dmg. Duplicated it with a single Fire Shot and Wildfire and got the same results, which got me pretty excited.

Grabbed a blm friend, and went to Mt. Z to test on flans using t1 nukes. We did Bliz1, Bliz 1, Ice Shot, Bliz1, QD. Both the additional shot and the 3rd Bliz1 received the damage boost.

While some naked control mob testing should probably done, at this point I'm fairly confident that a QD using Navarch's Bottes +1 grant a straight 10~% dmg bonus to any subsequent magical attack of the same element on that mob used within the estimated 15 second window.

Mirke has mab/qd delay - on it. Using Atma of the Beyond and Atma of the Smouldering Sky. On the same mob as the above shot, I hit combo was 845 with an 8, aesthetics, and no blm or day bonus.

If you're only interested in boosting QD dmg, add a Blm, XI roll, Aesthetics, Day Bonus, and Atma of the Beyond + Atma of the Baying Moon and it should break 1k+ on Ice Shots by my estimation. I'm rarely on Cor outside of WoE, so I haven't had the opportunity to do so yet. If I can get my static to go for it, I'll play with it tonight or tomorrow and post some pics.

Oh, and the Wildfire in that shot is actually about 100 dmg below my average with buffs, it's broken 3220+ with buffs + lucky roll without Blm or weather bonus. I'd imagine it could go 4k+ full buffed on Firesday with an 11 + a Blm.

Kind of unrelated and I apologize, but I'm curious what kind of difference you would see between Atma of the Baying Moon(MAB+ Major) vs Atma of the Smoldering Sky(Fire+ Major) on Fire Shot and Wildfire. Hella early and my brain is barely functioning so feel free to /slap me if the answer is obvious.

Do you find you really need all that agil? I jave 5/5 QD acc merits and i hardly ever see a lot of resists on anything. I may see 3-4 half resists a day and I dont stack agility or macc at all. Its been weeks since ive missed a lightshot on things that can actually be slept. The only thing I ever see misses on is Dispel, but ive had the same dark card stack for over a year now lol.

Just curious as to thoughts on this.

Pretty much this. I have to carry it anyway for Wildfire, so it's the best option for the slots. Even if I don't need it 85% of the time, it couldn't hurt to have it in just in case.

Do you have these atmas to test it? I guess my question was does the fire+ of AotSS beat out the MAB on AotBM or AotB? Because of the properties of the WS that my LS runs with we usually setup for light skillchains and neither AotBM or AotB have attack + for these elements. If we were doing darkness then AotB would be clear win for both me and the BLMs.
