Talk:Magic Accuracy

From FFXI Wiki

Notes from the page creator

Everything we know about Magic Accuracy is inferred by measuring Magic Hit Rate. As such, it is meaningless to call dINT "negative Magic Evasion" instead of "positive Magic Accuracy." I just arbitrarily put it on this page because positive numbers make me happy. --Byrthnoth 13:51, 17 June 2011 (EDT)

Day/Weather Bonus

Q: [On Haruspex Slops,] What does "Elemental Magic +5 depending on day" mean? It seems to be +40 for day of the week, strong weather, and Twilight Cape using the elemental obi, but I'm wondering if it would be +45 with the Haruspex Slops... This would only increase the calculation by 3.6%, so maybe it doesn't matter.
Here's another story,
Weather/day of the week increases the damage of Elemental magic, etc., but tell me if it affects Magic Accuracy as well!
A: Qualities such as weather and days of the week that have an effect on magic damage also have an effect on magic accuracy.
This applies not only to Elemental magic, but also to Enfeebling magic.
When taking part in a solo battlefield, please take these qualities into consideration when refining your tactics.
  • I read through the resources listed on the Magic Accuracy page, and their sources have said that if a day/weather bonus did exist, it isn't statistically significant and would be a huge waste of time to separate the day/weather effect from normal fluctuations.
    • If you are capping day/weather bonuses at +40 like in that question, perhaps that would be enough of a difference to start seeing an accuracy change. --Shynoe (talk) 02:33, 9 October 2022 (EDT)
