So after a debate about fSTR and its relevance for Savage Blade I created this little easy calculator if people quickly want to check if they have hit the fSTR cap

Please let me know if you find any miscalculations.
Happy FFXI

It might be a lot of data but instead of "Enemy Vit" it should be "Enemy Name" with the VIT already stored. That's a calculator I'd use.

side note: How do I figure out Sortie bosses vit?

P.S.
I stole the Vit info from the python script for optimizing gear

Isn't it irrelevant showing fSTR in fractional values? Wouldn't it be best that it always rounded up?

What about ranged weapons, don't they have fSTR calculated differently?

Ranged fSTR is indeed different from melee. While melee is one base damage for every 4 strength, ranged is one base damage for every 2 strength.

The values are always floored I believe. Was actually looking at the BG Wiki page yesterday doing some napkin math and I think someone should update/clarify the WS Damage page.

Show the full WS Calculation but include where exactly PDL, Gear-WSD and Trait WSD go and how they are calculated (because Trait WSD is calculated separately and you won’t find that until you’ve dug around in there a ton)
Include an Example of a worked out Physical, Magical Hybrid, Ranged

Would be nice if someone could do that imo.

There are no fractional values in the calculations, except for the end result. All fractions are truncated (rounded down) as the game does that.

However. relevans is a matter of purpose.
If you want to know how close you are to getting more fSTR you will need to know the fraction even if it get lost because you just need to "complete" that fraction to a whole number.

So IMHO there IS a reason to keep the fraction of the end result around

Yes and H2H have weapon rank calculated differently too.
Ranged fSTR is called fSTR2 by the community though

I might add in fSTR2 later or do another calcuator just for fSTR2

in other news

I'm working on adding in the presets for Ambuscade,Aeonic,Empyrian,mythic, Prime, And Relic weapons.

As well as more mob types Vit info.
But data input'ing is the boring part...
