Slimeknight 76 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) I am asking because I do not have a sage, cleric, or mage and I was wondering if you get strength to a high level does Oomph still work? Edited December 25, 2014 by Slimeknight Link to post Share on other sites
ignasia 1,190 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Oomph doesn't boost strength. It never has, not in any DQ. It's a Damage modifier. In DQ3 through to 8: Oomphed damage is Damage = Damage*2 Damage = basic damage equation. In DQ3 (all versions), it is this: (PlayerAttack - EnemyDefense/2)*.39~.59 So in DQ3, Oomphed damage = (PAtk - EDef/2) * .39~.59 *2 So let's say your Strength is 255, your weapon's attack is 120, and you've the Mighty Armlet, which adds 15 attack, your PlayerAttack is 390. Let's assume the enemy defense is 400, and another at 100! Enemy Defense = 400! 390 - 400/2 = 390 - 200 = 190*.39~.59 = 74~112 With Oomph...74~112 * 2 = 148~224 Enemy Defense = 100! 390 - 100/2 = 390 - 50 = 340*.39~.59 = 132~201 With Oomph...132~201 * 2 = 264~402 It just doubles damage, period. It might help if you actually read my FAQ. I have a full breakdown of how damage is dished out, and a bunch of other relevant factors. It's a strategy guide + equipment info + equipment location + battle info + spell info + boss info... It will eventually have all monsters...ALL. All mini medal locations. All items and locations. A comprehensive boss strategy breakdown and analysis on best equipment options (already has spell data on best spells, accessories, and useful equipment with spells that ARE available when said boss is available to be fought). Heck, I even included a list on WHEN certain equipment becomes available (first iterations anyhow), and which pieces are finite...how many are available. I even have a bloody seed farming list, where to farm them. I have an EXCAVATE list, and a breakdown on strategy for personalities. I even HAVE the personality system, as it exists for creating new party members at Patty's (I'll be finishing formatting sometime tomorrow), and I'm working on the Hero's system. Did I mention I also have a breakdown on status effects and how to avoid them (what luck does, and what equipment helps with that?). Soon to add in...items (well, one item). I even have data on Stealing, AND...AND a comprehensive breakdown on differences between all games in terms of all equipment (including the bloody NES, and I use DaMarsman's translation for the SFC). A lot of your questions are answered by the FAQ, so maybe check it out once in awhile. It's easy to find stuff too. I made sure of that. Damn sure! http://www.gamefaqs.com/iphone/100042-dragon-quest-iii/faqs/70835 The android and ios of course have the same FAQ, and they're uploaded each at the same point in time. Anyway. Cheers. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
