Frost Sphere speed breakpoints

First of all, thank you for releasing the speed breakpoints information, its a bit more accurate then what people have gathered in the past, and should help us alot.

Could you please also release the information for the frost sphere breakpoints for SW? Or at least let us know which animation set it follows? I can easily tell it doesn't follow magic missle, and most probably isn't the same as fireball. But when I tested it I wasn't able to tell if it was different to lightning strike or not.

Thanks for the help.

 

Speed break for Frost Sphere is 1. Just 1, cause thats all you'll ever need. Buahhaahaa, sorry couldnt resist.

 

Lmao I wish, yet to reach the 100k base damage range

 

Haha, well may your endeavor to get there be a productive one.

Ah thank you, you're very informed about speed breakpoints as always Were these breakpoints calculated?

 

No problem, and yes they are. The frozen sphere is an AF 13 skill, the calculations should be correct as long as I haven't made any typo mistake

 

Oh, interesting, I thought this was a skill like Destruction, which isn't influenced by speed. But that's good to know. To me it felt like it always had the same speed.

 

It surely wasn't until r158. Never played after that to check with speed 4.00 it was the same as with 1.00.

Assuming it has breakpoints, which I doubt,

The formula is (was)
(AF / N + AF / (N+1) ) / 2.

In this case, like said above it is (13/7 +13/8 ) / 2 for instance. Replace 7 and 8 by 6,7 etc to get others.

Btw, official breakpoints they released are slightly adjusted, potentially rounded. The do not match the pre r158 exactly.

 

I can see the same speed between 0.86-1.30 and actually it's faster than Magic Missile 1.00 speed. Absolutely no difference, same ess consumption. It has nothing to do with speed.

 

Hm I don't play Mage, so this data was just calculated, not tested by myself. It might be possible frozen sphere is a static skill, in this case the breakpoints are obsolete of course. I'll check it this evening.
