Talk:Damage Spikes

From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

I had moved the damage calculations here because I figured this would be a better place for them, but now that I look at the actual formulas, they can be rewritten in more normal terminology and placed on the respective spell pages like other spells often do. What does everyone else think? --Syeria 16:43, 11 May 2006 (PDT)


Seems appropriate, because there are multiple methods to gain the effect of damage spikes and the damage of the spikes probably varies by method. For example, Gallant's Roll blaze spikes damage is almost surely calculated in a different way than traditional blaze spikes. --Aurikasura 16:51, 11 May 2006 (PDT)


Actually, they already were on the spell pages as a link to a page dedicated to such. I added it to here as well under Notes at the bottom. --Chrisjander 19:20, 11 May 2006 (PDT)


Well the calculations should be on the actual page like they are for Phalanx, Stoneskin, etc. On top of that, the page with the spike formulas is not very understandable, and doesn't do a very good job of explaining how the damage is calculated. --Syeria 21:39, 11 May 2006 (PDT)


It just needs to be wikified a bit... though I didn't see any mention of magic skill :( --Chrisjander 22:28, 11 May 2006 (PDT)
