Damages

Players normally do not want to, or at least need not to, know the calculation formula for damage, condition damage or healing scales since we learn the rough images of those from countless battles over time.

Hence, here are the only tips that are generally useful for players to combat with strong monsters.

Magic, Physical, Elemental

If the intensity of attack skills is the same, the heaviness of the outgoing damages is generally in the following order:

1. Elemental Magic attack
2. Elemental Physical attack
3. Non-elemental Magic attack
4. Non-elemental Physical attack

Whole Area vs. Single Target

If the intensity of attack skills is the same, a single target attack generates heavier damages than a whole area attack.

Multiple vs. Single

If you want to gain more charges of the AF gauge and combo, multiple attacks are superior.
