New Formula

Elemental Siphon has probably had this new formula since the 2016 update that raised the cap by Summoning Magic Skill from 350 to 700 skill. The "skill - 50" formula is blatantly off.

  • From my findings, if the siphon without bonuses was linear, it would be
    • round( 508÷483×skill - 27158÷483 )
  • This could be simplified to
    • ( floor( skill × 1.05 ) - 55 + Elemental_Siphon_Equipment ) × ( 1.0 ± Day_Weather_Bonus ) + Elemental_Siphon_Effect_Job_Points.
