Just wondering, has nexon implemented so that each wand boosts 25% of the primary element and 10% of the secondary element to each of the above 4 wands yet? or does it currently boost any element by 25%? Including holy?!

Thanks in advance

They boost the respective element by 25% , 10% to the second one, currently the modifier to weaken other elements, such as holy (which would be on ALL of the element staffs) by 25% isn't working.

^That, though I do remember that the wrong non-holy elements took the 25% cut at some point, dunno if they still do now.

Way to post a 1-answer question in the general section?

Well, it is in a way.
If say, an I/L equipped a Fire staff his damage would get reduced.
But if a Bishop equipped any staff there is no damage reduction.

it's supposed to reduce holy but it doesn't

I was sure there was no reduction in anyway

*goes off to borrow fire/poison staff*

I'm confused. Nexon America has a REAL GOOD way of naming their ele weaps. In MSEA they have individual names...

On-topic: By ewands 5~8 do u refer to the lvl 130 or 163 one?

ehm this might just be me but
i heard that the standards for elemental power are 75% and that the staffs/wands add 25% so then you would have 100% BUT 100/75=133,33% meaning you would have gained 33%

then wouldnt weakening holy element work the same? 75% - 25% = 50%
50/75=66,66% meaning a 33,33% penalty?

or is the bonus/penalty 25% of the standard of 75% meaning 75 x 1,25 = 93,75% meaning a 18,75% bonus instead of 25% and also the same amount of penalty if using holy...

so basically my question is, what is seen as 100% ? is it the standard elemental dmg? cause im sure that in the data the standard for elemental dmg is 75% if you say you add +25% its important to know if you start off with 75 or 100%

might just be me though :S pro respond plox xD

I don't think i got what you mean fully but I think it just makes it 75% if the wrong element is used. For the right element its just 100% + the bonus. Ice staff = 100 + 25% for ice, 100 + 10% for lightning. If ice mage/bishop is using Fire staff then it will cut their damage to 75% so its lower than using a regular wand. If a fire mage is using the wand, it will add the bonus to 100%. I think this is how it works, atleast it'll be a lot simpler if it works this way.

i think he meant if a fire mage uses it the bonus to 125% if fire is used and 110% if poison is used

I don't personally know just correcting his comment on the matter
