Quick Draw Damage

Quick Draw damage is calculated similar to magic damage by multiplying the following factors in order and flooring after each step.

1. Base Damage = [(Gun DMG + Bullet DMG) * 2] (Multiple gear listed below add 10 DMG to Base Damage.)
2. resist
3. Staff Bonus
4. Day & Weather
5. Player MAB / Target MDB
6. Affinity

Most forms of Damage Taken -% are ignored by Quick Draw.

The general Quick Draw damage formula is:

 damage = int{ [ (Gun_DMG + Bullet_DMG)*2 + QuickDraw_Damage_Stat] * (1 + DeathPenaltyBonus) + Magic_Damage_Stat } * Magic_Damage_Multipliers

where QuickDraw_Damage_Stat is a damage statistic unique to Quick Draw, which can be obtained from

1. "Quick Draw Effect" Job Points category (up to +40)
2. "Quick Draw+" equipment, such as Laksa. Tricorne +3 (+20) and Laksa. Bottes +3 (+20), but excluding Chass. Bottes +3

Basic Info

• Quick Draw is used by expending charges of the ability; charges regenerate one at a time based on the recast timer and up to two may be stored at once.
• Requires a gun, a bullet, and an elemental card. One card is consumed for each shot, but the bullet is not.
  • In addition to the element-specific cards listed in the table below, players using Corsair as their main job may also use Trump Cards as a substitute for all element-specific cards.

Accuracy

• Quick Draw accuracy is modified by the user's AGI stat and Magic Accuracy.
  • Marksmanship Skill does not affect Quick Draw accuracy.
• Quick Draw accuracy can be increased by 10 accuracy in 2 accuracy increments up to five times by investing in Quick Draw Accuracy, a group 1 Corsair job-specific merit.

Recast

• Quick Draw recast can be lowered from 00:01:00 to 00:00:50 in 2 second increments with five upgrades to the Corsair job-specific merit category Quick Draw Recast.
  • Can be further lowered an additional 10 seconds with the 550 Job Point gift.
  • Can be further lowered an additional 4-10 seconds using an augmented Crimson/Blood Mask and/or the ACP Body.
    • Note: There is an overall cap of -25 seconds for a 35 second recast even though we can get hit -30 with everything.
• Charge system recast: Equipment that reduces the recast time, in order to take effect, must be worn when each charge starts its recast timer.

Monster TP and Player TP

• Quick Draw generates TP for the user equal to that of a standard ranged attack.
  • TP generation is increased by Store TP.
• Quick Draw feeds 0 TP to the target.

Enfeebling Effect Bonus

• Quick Draw boosts the effect of certain Enfeebling Magic effects that are present on the target at the time of the shot.
  • See the table below for details.
  • The Enfeebling bonus will take effect even if the shot fails.

Elemental Damage Bonus

• If used with Navarch's Bottes +1 or any higher upgrade level of the Empyrean footgear equipped, the next magic damage of the same element used against the target within 10 seconds will be increased by an amount depending on the footgear's upgrade level.
  • Using the same Quick Draw again will both consume and reapply the bonus.
  • The damage bonus will not be applied if the shot fails to take effect.
