Hey guys, I was wondering what is the highest damage in Mabinogi or know of anyone who does the highest in other server(kr, china, tw etc) when it comes to skills like:
- Magnum
- Smash
- Blaze
- Lightning rod
- Drop kick
- Bash
Hopefully you can give me an answer since these are the skills that I might want to focus on.
If I had to give actual names, it'd be hard because it's been awhile in KR sites that I go to at least, that someone goes like "look, I did x much damage with x skill!", nor is it very helpful because there's theory crafting, real application, the latter being the more dominant factor in NA.
With that being said, some skills that you listed doesn't need a name of who did the highest in each category. Lightning Rod is dictated by how much MA you have as well as reforges, and also lacks combo card, and is otherwise basically static among users with same condition. While Blaze can have multiple factors, including combo cards, it's not meaningful to measure it's damage anymore due to its place in magic compared to Lightning Rod, Firebolt, or even Fireball. The similar can be said about Drop Kick. While a whopping number of nearly 2 mil damage in Drop Kick has been recorded, its usage is limited, and I don't intend to dig up sites to find that info. As for Smash and Magnum, I believe that both are viable in this discussion because of potential DPS as well as usability. There is an elf who's infamous in KR servers for being able to literally 3-5 shot DD, PD etc, and a giant who shared the same rep, buthe bother hado gofly elemental reforges, which is irelevant in newere contents. You can find their YouTube videos too, I believe. I remember seeing like 200k for magnum in one of the sites, but I'm pretty sure there have been much higher numbers for the skill.
As for Bash, there may have been people recording their damage, but it's more important to theory craft with this skill because of its viability.
In the end, you'd want to get down with all of these anyway, with my opinion being that Drop Kick should be out of this list.
