I don't remember a lick of math behind nuking (and most of FFXI), but equipping INT sounds like it'd be better vibes than equipping M.acc, in situations where either could be "preferable" to MAB.

Maybe?

--edit--
Like... even though macc compliments MAB in a multiplicative way on these "resistant" mobs ("MORE good nukes"), it seems like once you reach a certain level of MAB (140+?), INT's increase to the base damage (which said MAB multiplicatively effects) is enough to make it the better option ["BETTER good nukes" (retaining an itty bitty hint of "MORE good nukes", from INT's inherent macc)].

Anyone here good at math or something?

I have no idea what you're even trying to say.

He's saying that once you have so much mab, there might be a point where it would be worth while to start trading mab for int, since int gives an increase in both damage and macc...

You called me a retard, and informed me that there was nothing currently resistant enough to trade 7 mab for 5 macc, however you used to believe otherwise:

And that would make you a fool. 5% land rate can certainly be better than 7 mab.

Quoted Thread.

After aquiring minikin and nuking several Aby NM's, I can tell you that even with cruor buffs, it's not enough int to floor your resist rates on tough stuff.

Cassandra's/Helenus's can in fact outparse Moldy/Novio, even with minikin and cruor buffs.

Fixed, but thanks for the much-needed eloquence.

Because the game has @#%^ing changed since then. I used to believe differently, because it WAS different then. You can't seriously be this stupid, can you?

No, but assuming you have good gear, it'll be high enough for novio to surpass helandras.

Maybe if your gear sucks to the point that you should sell your novio.

Dont nerd rage when I point out your bs. The game has changed sure, but it's far from "nothing is resistant".

Make up your mind dude. If you dont have floored resist rates, which you just admitted is possible even with minikin and buffs, (that wasnt your story a few posts ago btw) a 5% lower resist rate will sh*t all over 7 mab.

Magian +1/Bugard +1/Witch
Estoq +1/Uggy/Cas/Hel
teal/zenith/snow/snow
hecates/witch/teal/duelist

Yeah... my gear sucks so bad... that must be why.

WELL IT"S A GOOD THING I DIDN'T @#%^ING SAY THAT, RETARD.

I'm "nerd raging" because you are repeatedly misquoting me, and trying to use things i said forever ago, that haven't applied to anything in months against me, as if it means something.

Personally I generally wouldn't bother responding to people whose name consists of more numbers than letters, but that's just me.

After seeing the spelling/grammar errors, I didn't bother reading these 2 sentences.

I @#%^ing hate you. You don't even know how hard it is for me to not type out an essay on why there were no spelling/grammar errors in my post Smiley: mad
