Talk:Cursed Sphere

From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

Do we need to put the magic burst info on this? I understand the physical ones, because they're not obvious, but the element of the magical spells are. Including it here would mean that it would also make sense to put the same info on all WHM/BLM/RDM/PLD/DRK/NIN/BRD spells as well, for complete redundancy. Anyone else agree that its a tad superfluous in this case? --Chrisjander 21:35, 4 June 2006 (PDT)

All info that is true, is good info to know. Personally, I think having it on all, as you say, "WHM/BLM/RDM/PLD/DR/NIN/BRD" spells as well, wouldnt be a bad thing. Just a matter of the fact that its not neccesary. Things that might seem non beneficial to some, may in fact be very useful to another person. The only reason to remove info from a database purely of info - is if it is incorrect or opinionated info (IE, stuff that ends up in the discussion board is often weighted, just as this post is). And even some opinionated info is still "good" info to know. Like, what earing is best to pick from divine might? Who knows? The general concensus is the Dual-Wield earing - but how do you explain that to someone that only subs NIN on occasion? Later, in most cases, people regret not picking that particular item (myself included). Is the fact that its the "better" choice required info? No. Do I wish I had that info when I picked BLM earing? Yes.

Worse case scenario, People know thier job better and perform better as a result. How many here have had to explain what "fire" or "Water" bursts with in an xp pt? How do people learn that if its thier first mage job other than to ask, or to look online. The more informative the better - the only question to the limitiation is people's reading interest and space on a page. Hence sub-catagory information when you click the links by said SC's. --Fujilives 00:20, 25 September 2006 (EDT)

Agree to Fuji plus I recently wanted to know whether Ninjutsu Spells Burst. Well I found it out, but if there would've been a short "Bursts" near the Spell it would've saved me a minute or two. --Elvaron 01:36, 25 September 2006 (EDT)

The version of Cursed Sphere that enemies use does Dark damage. Proof: http://www.ffxionline.com/forums/general-ffxi-discussion/69212-psa-fly-cursed-sphere-does-dark-damage.html

"Primarily modified by INT, with an INT: 30% secondary modifier. " does this need to be changed? --Setsumi 01:03, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
