Why Reposted? I reposted this guide because the FA threads are still continued, and because cookie asked me to. o_O Feel free to link to, copy, or repost this guide. The Skill Final Attack With a certain success rate, another attack follows after performing an attacking skill. Passive Skill Requires Mastery Level 3 Level 1: 2% success rate, final attack with damage 105% Level 2: 4% success rate, final attack with damage 110% Level 3: 6% success rate, final attack with damage 115% Level 4: 8% success rate, final attack with damage 120% Level 5: 10% success rate, final attack with damage 125% Level 6: 12% success rate, final attack with damage 130% Level 7: 14% success rate, final attack with damage 135% Level 8: 16% success rate, final attack with damage 140% Level 9: 18% success rate, final attack with damage 145% Level 10: 20% success rate, final attack with damage 150% Level 11: 22% success rate, final attack with damage 155% Level 12: 24% success rate, final attack with damage 160% Level 13: 26% success rate, final attack with damage 165% Level 14: 28% success rate, final attack with damage 170% Level 15: 30% success rate, final attack with damage 175% Level 16: 32% success rate, final attack with damage 180% Level 17: 34% success rate, final attack with damage 185% Level 18: 36% success rate, final attack with damage 190% Level 19: 38% success rate, final attack with damage 195% Level 20: 40% success rate, final attack with damage 200% Level 21: 42% success rate, final attack with damage 205% Level 22: 44% success rate, final attack with damage 210% Level 23: 46% success rate, final attack with damage 215% Level 24: 48% success rate, final attack with damage 220% Level 25: 50% success rate, final attack with damage 225% Level 26: 52% success rate, final attack with damage 230% Level 27: 54% success rate, final attack with damage 235% Level 28: 56% success rate, final attack with damage 240% Level 29: 58% success rate, final attack with damage 245% Level 30: 60% success rate, final attack with damage 250% General Pros & Cons Pros: Increases 1v1 damage Uses no MP Attacks faster than a normal attack Looks pretty cool :3 Cons: Generally lowers mobbing damage (not necessarily with crusaders) Takes 30 SP that could be used on other skills Lower level FA lowers even 1v1 damage How does FA hurt mobbing damage? When FA activates on slash blast, the damage is spread to every monster. Let's say you are fighting a mob of 6 and FA activates. Instead of dishing 250% to every monster, you would dish roughly 169% to the first, 60% to the second, 10% to the third, 5% to the next, 4% to the next, and 2% to the next. (NOTE: If anyone knows the actual percentages please let me know) Final Attack For Fighters FA for fighters, is terrible, and FA for crusaders is a must. We all know FA lowers mobbing damage with slash blast, and in 2nd job, training spots are generally mobbing. In 3rd job, though many training spots remain mobbing, crusaders get orbs. Every attack

I doubt this would decrease the amount of "Should I get FA?" threads. It's good, but I just don't think people who ask the questions about FA, classes or skill builds really read any guides at all.

The main purpose of this guide wasn't so people would read it, but so that there was a thread to simply link to, or copy the next time someone asks.

I dont know the percentages, but if I remember correctly, Senyain had something like this. 1/x + 3/x + 9/x + 27/x + 81/x + 243/x. Where x = 364. You can do the math to find the %.

Got a question, does FA affect the 3rd Job mobbing skills too or just Slash Blast? Thank you.

superjamespeople also dont see one factor it increases range and can kill 2 monsters with 1 ps and 1 fa with a bit of timing and jumping (well for 2h sword anyways)

FA activates on power strike and slash blast, but not on fury or crusher.

First and foremost, thank you for reposting this upon my request. Sorry I hadn't posted until now, but I've been to preoccupied reading Death Note. Okay, there are a couple of things you could add: -For the Spearmen pros and cons, FA still increases 1v1 damage, and the looking cool thing could be added as a pro for the other pro and con lists, although this is an opinion. I also have this theory that FA helps spears more than any other weapon because I believe slash:stab ratio changes the s:s ratio, but since I've already started to reset FA, I cannot test it out until my Fighter get's FA, which won't be until 70. Annihilatron mentioned something about the s:s being essentially the same, when I posted my theory in a thread somewhere. I don't remember why this was, however. Don't need to mention this yet, since it's unconfirmed. I've been rambling on too much about this, so... next point (or rather, hyphen xD). -You can add this which lists alternative builds, etc. -Perhaps you might want to add something like: This guide is just an outline of what has been found to be the most effective in regards to what a warrior will do with Final Attack. However, since it is your own character, you may do whatever you wish with it, because it is your character.
