Notes

  • Unlike Lunge, only one Rune is ever expended, regardless of how many runes are active. The last activated rune is consumed first.
  • Damage appears to be based on weapon skill and typical Magic multiplier terms. The proposed formula is:
    • Damage = (Main-hand weapon Skill × (100 + Swipe Job Points) ÷ 100) × (0.75 + (n ÷ 100) ) × Magic Multiplier Terms
      • n = Lunge effect bonus from gear.
        • For example: Aettir's "Lunge"+10 would be n=10
    • Treated like an Elemental Magic damage source (can MB, subject to day/weather boosts, etc.)
    • Does not feed TP to target
    • Swipe is nullified by blink/shadows.
