currently i have a phery of db +6 40% cd and a topaz +9 10% cd but i plan on changing the topaz one into a forci one.
the thing is, im not sure wether to buy forci 10% cd or have to save up 500m for forci 7%m.amp, the + for the forci doesnt matter as i can just upgrade or buy at the same +.
is the 7%m.amp really that much better than 10% cd? or i guess i could get sigmetal +6 20% cd but that would decrease my magic from topaz+9, would that still be gud?
Don't go for the SIG.
For the forcy orbs, you'd want either a +11 (10% CD) or a +9 (% amp).
Those two are about equivalent to each other damage wise.
And yes, 7% amp is that much better than 10% CD.
Would you like to increase your magic attack by 7% or increase your CD by 10%, which only effects criticals anyway.

hmm i guess it makes sense to not get the SIG. i guess ill try saving u for the amp one, since +11 10%cd right now costs ALOT considering how much money i usually get per day

You can do good with +9 10%crit dmg forci until you can afford amp.

seems kind of a waste to buy a forci +9 10% cd and then have to save up more for an m.amp.
its ok, ill try saving up for the forci with 7% magic amp

I disagree, a +11 (10 cd) is in fact way superior than +9 7.m amp.

you can play with a damage calculator like this
an FA at 170 w/
A. 1100 M.Atk | 47% m AMP | 100% CDI | 49/50 Rate
Vs
B. 1100 M.Atk | 40% m AMP | 110% CDI | 49/50 Rate
*Using the skill Shadowshot, both orb have the same average damage output @ 3618.
*If you mess around with other skills, all the damage are in fact very identical.
*The only difference with m amp orb is that, Critical Shot would be a little stronger, and a little stronger in bm2.
(Notice the calculator does not seem to apply critical shot's bonus 105% cdi, which is why its not used for comparison here).
*With that the aside, a +11 Crit orb (16 M ATK higher) would be definitely stronger than +9 m Amp orb.
I would actually in fact, rather get a crit orb to start with, and save for the double slotted forcium orb.

You forgot to read the whole post bro
He was comparing the two orbs at the same +.
lol@ +9 amp=+11 cdi
I admit, I'm no expert on Force Archers.
I was simply trying to help him out with the basic knowledge that I have.
