About future notable relics.

Since we're arriving at the OSB era, OSB RW can be used to bypass bosses weak phase which make the battle become significantly easier.

Because OSB RW has a potential to hit the damage cap when being used properly, even small percentage boost could noticeably affect the total damage. Therefore, we're looking at it in details.

Total damage from SB is the multiplication of:

  • [Offensive Stats Multiplier]

  • [SB Multiplier]

  • [Row condition]

  • ["Damage Type" Boost from RM and RD]

  • [Elemental Boost from relics and element attached]

  • [Elemental Boost from RM and RD]

  • [School Boost from RM and RD]

  • [Enemy's weakness]

  • [Weakness boost from RM and RD]


[Offensive Stats Multiplier]

For physical attack, it's lower value between ATK1.8 / DEF0.5 and 4000 * ATK0.5 / DEF0.5

For magical attack, it's lower value between MAG(MND)1.65 / RES0.5 and 3000*MAG(MND)0.5 / RES0.5

In case that you cast SB natively, ATK/MAG used in the formulas will be the total multiplication of [ATK/MAG], [Buffs], [Debuffs] and [percentage boost from RM] of the caster.

However, when casting RW, the total ATK/MAG used in the formulas will be replace with the RW's stats. This means any stats boost from buffs and RM will not affect RW damage.

[Row condition]

You get half damage output, if you use melee SB with melee weapon in the back-row.

In case that you cast SB natively, your character can equip range weapon to unleash full potential of melee SB in the back-row.

However, when casting RW, your weapon condition change according to the RW. This means you still get half damage when casting melee RW in the back-row, even if you equip your character with a range weapon.

["Damage Type" Boost from RM and RD]

["Damage Type" Boost from RM] is referring to "Deal adj. more (-physical, black Magic, white magic, summon magic) damage (when equipment is equipped)".

["Damage Type" Boost from RD] is referring to "+ x% (Equipmentphysical, black Magic, summoning) damage".

"Damage Type" Boost affect RW damage, if the conditions are met. The SB must deal the same damage type and caster equipment (not RW equipment) must be the same as stated in the RM/RD description.
