14:39 <@Thisbe> So let's assume 60 Ap worth of AoE.
14:40 <@Thisbe> That's 12 quakes or 20 Aether Waves or whatever.
14:40 <@Thisbe> 12 * 12 + 144 MP needed for quaking
14:40 <@Thisbe> Assume 30 'free' MP (the rest go to portals or whatever)
14:41 <@Thisbe> We need to tap 114 MP. So we need to infuse 114/5 * 7 = 161 MP
14:41 <@Thisbe> That's 161 MP, 161 AP, + 23 AP needed to tap
14:42 <@Thisbe> (four lines up it's '=', not '+')
14:42 <@Thisbe> For the grade 20 AoE, We need 20 * 40 = 800 MP
14:43 <@Thisbe> In the first case, we spend 184 AP and 184 MP (since we have to waste the regened MP)	// the TLL case
14:43 <@Thisbe> 800 - 184 = 616 MP
14:44 <@Thisbe> We spend 20 * 5 = 100 AP transcribing
14:45 <@Thisbe> So we have 84 AP left, which translates to 84 * 5 = 420 MP with SM
14:45 <@Thisbe> Not quite the 616 MP we need
14:45 <@Thisbe> (Of course, we also have 20 MP spare from the 30 'free' MP assumption, since only 20 MP is used for AoEing)
14:45 <@Thisbe> Might as well assume the faction mates do the healing
14:46 <@Thisbe> It's good for them :)
14:47 <@Thisbe> Uh, let's see
14:47 <@Thisbe> 100 Ap for transcribing 20 AoEs
14:47 <@Thisbe> While Sming you also gain MP
14:48 <@Thisbe> 700 MP needed.
14:48 <@Thisbe> Every AP you get 5 MP (SM) = 1 MP (regen)
14:49 <@Thisbe> So 700 / 6 ~= 17
14:49 <@Thisbe> Uh... not quite
14:49 <@Thisbe> 117
14:49 <@Thisbe> 117 + 100 = 217 AP to transcribe all that AoE
14:53 <@Thisbe> So that means in about 217 AP and 217 MP, you get 20 grade 20 AoE scrolls
14:54 <@Thisbe> Now let's look at the damage.
14:55 <@Thisbe> 20 aether waves do up to 20 * 200 = 4000 damage
14:55 <@Thisbe> Exactly,
14:55 <@Thisbe> That's what I was thinking
14:56 <@Thisbe> 12 earthquakes do up to 12 * 300 = 3600 damage
14:56 <@Thisbe> Ah, we've forgotten eagle eyes
14:56 <@Thisbe> I haven't factored in accuracy
14:57 <@Thisbe> Those aether waves look to be doing more damage on larger targets
14:57 <@Thisbe> Still, the accuracy will decrease with each hit, since there'll be fewer and fewer people left
14:58 <@Thisbe> So bugger it, I'm going to go with a rather inaccurate estimate
14:58 <@Thisbe> Earthquake: 3600 * 90% = 3240 damage
14:59 <@Thisbe> (Note: my previous estimation wasn't that inaccurate of one, it was correct to 0 dp)
15:00 <@Thisbe> Aether wave: with eagle eye, it gets you 80%, does it?
15:00 <@Thisbe> 4000 * 80% = 3200 damage
15:00 <@Thisbe> And that's not including eagle eye transcribing and casting
