found this little gem online
Hopefully these new dmg calculations for ww and trans skill become true ;D

In EP10 each crystal will give 20% more damage output. So FB and FS will gain a 20% boost on the damage gained from their crystal and FA will gain 40% additional damage from their 2 crystals

Example:

Let's imagine that without weapons you hit 1000 on 1 target, if you put 2 orbs you hit 3000. That's 3000 - 1000 = 2000 damage gained from 2 orbs. Now let's take 2 crystals which are the same as those 2 orbs used before. 40% additional damage, 2000 * 1.4 = 2800; 1000 + 2800 = 3800. 3800 - 3000 = 800 more damage than orbs in this example. Now just change these false numbers with real ones and you'll see how powerful crystals will be in EP10.

I don't think it will be simple. The damage boost will probably only affect the crystal's base attack/m.attack stats, which is still a huge boost, but not as big as your example.

That's one of the first things I asked, and the answer was nope. It is calculated after, directly on damage output gained from weapon, like in my example.

The hell? That's ridiculous, would it apply to all classes that can use them, or only magic classes?

FB and FS only 20% since 1 crystal, FA and WI 40% since 2.

If it's too unbalanced devs will probably reduce the %...

dafuq is this nonsense? that guy is trolling hard

My guess is they'll do something like that for all weapons. Maybe Blades will get something like +Pierce.

There's no way they'd allow FA's to gain 40% on their damage without the other classes having something to offset it.
