I was looking at the description for Drake's breath bash, that got me thinking. Does using that skill allow us to attack physically immune monsters? I will try it out next lunar run and see. Unless someone knows a physical immune boss/mob (easyish) to test this on.

If the above works, i want to see how effective, dbb, gs and mss are in caster vana, or simply against other bosses. I am getting weary of simply hf+spark.

    You and I need to have a long talk about what you've been doing all of this time prior to 101.

    PM me, I had some other comments about the genie thread too.

    Not to mention sage HF, apoc, and elemental shards. Yup blademasters are great magic damage dealers.

    Yes, its magic damage and I've actually ran caster vana. I'm not certain on comparing damage but in Lunar I kept aggro of the phys immune mob off a R8 + 10 wizard. In caster vana I was a mediocre dd as I used triple spark, CE, DBB, as well as wood apos. My main job was to stun some of the boss spawns, though.

    It's magic damage added to base weapon damage (similar to the wood damage pot or wizard water buff). It's a set amount of damage based off weapon damage so triple spark won't affect it.

    It will allow you to attack physical immune enemies but you'll only do the elemental portion of your damage (135% of weapon damage or 100% if Sage or lv10).

    True, but I combine it with triple spark because it has a 30 seconds cooldown so to maximize I want it at 5.0 instead of 3.33.

    Thank you Sakubatou and TheDan for your replies. I knew there was something wrong with most of the other replies. I learned the skill to lvl 1. Tested it out in lunar today. Did 120 dmg on the phy immune ones, but i was happy that i could attack phy immune mob now b:victory. Will lvl it to demon in the next few days.

    When the skill wore off, i was sad, and it had a 30 sec timer, but the psy was kind enough to kill it in the next 3 seconds.

    I am surprised other bms don't use it, it is a fun skill to have. I learn new things about my bm every day b:pleased.

    In conclusions: BM's do have Magic Attack b:chuckle

    I thought you were talking about the damage, but yeah, the speed of it would change from triple spark.

    I would differentiate between a magic attack and a magic added physical attack; if you were to put magic points or wear a magic ring for magic attack, your base % damage bonus would not change.
