Hiya all,

I've got a question and no doubt its been asked before. I really don't know how to word what my question is cos its a bit confusing. i was speaking to someone yesterday who mentioned SEGA changed the power balance of PSU quite a while back.

This topic arose from us talking about element %'s for weapons. I told her i'd sold multiple 50% A ranks for money to go for synthing S ranks. The highest I got is 42%'s and she said the difference between power from 42-50 was minimal.

So my question is how much att does each 2% seem to affect a weapon? Seeing as synth weapons tend to be even %'s. For instance I'd hazard a guess that a 50% A rank sword with an base att say 200 less than its S rank counterpart would still be more powerful than the S rank if the S ranks % was medium to low? i.e. below 25/26%

Is there an actual table of power values? Or some way to calculate it other than taking all your weapons onto runs and trying to take an average damage count and working it out from there.

Eeek this is all rather technical but bottom line is roughly how much att does each % equate to?

Thanks,

Tifa

There's a guide I made that explains it all.

It's quite technical (and the looks of the guide isn't the best too, I admit) but, you can get your explanation there:

For the record, there's also a stat calculator somewhere (some of the links in the guide might be broken since it's been a while) but I cannot recall where.

150/142 = 1.0563

5.63%

You can mess with numbers in this too.
