Exact damage BTs

[DexTepa]

So, I've calculated methods to get the exact damage BTs that should be simpler and easier than the ones that have been floating around since the game first came out. These only work if you're on Galaxy level, the character is Lv255, and you haven't used any Attack Seeds. The IC weapons listed are the regular variety. (When you create a piece of gear in IC, there's a small chance you'll get a 'high quality' version with slightly higher stats.)

 

You don't necessarily have to be Lv255 so long as you can hit the right ATP (Attack Power) value, but if you're not Lv255, level up gains might be an issue.

 

When working with very high ATP figures, it could take a while before you get a hit, since the range of random variation is greater.

 

After getting a BT, you can save to another slot and load the previous save to get rid of the weapon modifications you might have made.

 Galvanic Shock as cancel fodder. Target an enemy going for another character, so you'll whiff, or just start the chain with a long range normal attack.
 You can apparently get 32k and 16k at the same time using Echo damage, but I can't confirm that, since I got lucky and got them unintentionally.

Calculating these methods was possible thanks to the information found in the Japanese SO4 Final Guide. The guide has been available since the PS3 version first came out, but no one apparently ever bothered to type out all the useful technical information found therein. You can barely find the base physical damage calculation formula mentioned in a few places, but without also knowing damage multipliers and enemy defense values, it doesn't really help much.

 

Well, you can now find all of that (along with some stuff that wasn't in the book) in my SO4 guide. It's on Gamefaqs as well as on my pastebin.
