If I want to make a weapon deal magical dmg how do I do.

Ok, I know that I have the transform a weapon in an other one, it is more the magic dmg part I want to know about. The formula I would like is something like that:

Cfaith * Tfaith * (MA+Y) * Pa/4


Thank you.

And also, witch sprite would you use for a new caracte? As I see that in the formation you're limited to the class the sprite had and not the class you made for him.

I don't know about a formula with Faith, but formula 24 has ((PA+Y)/2*MA)   I've not experimented with it, but if it works, I think Y would be the weapon damage.  The FFTPatcher can set the formula.

Er, nevermind.  I believe it says Y can't be altered.  It might take some toying with to find something that works.

1) Y is modifiable.  Elemental for example uses a value of 2 (4 if you're playing 1.3)

2) You can borrow Dark Sword's MP stealing formula, or Spell Absorbs, or Bizen Boat's.  All do MP damage, Dark Sword is base PA*WP, and spell absorb is your basic (Faith * (MA + Q)) bit.  Only hybrid-like one is elemental ability, but you can try to rig it on weapon strikes (maybe) while borrowing attribute from harp/dictionary (they use ((PA+MA)/2) * WP)

Edit: Or magic ruin/break.  There's plenty of formula you should be able to bend.  Plus you can trigger a weapon to cast any MP breaking/absorbing ability on weapon strike, but that's only 25% (least, I think it's set there).

Doesn't it say Y can't be altered when using it for Weapons?

Y can be altered IF it links to an ability, with the 25% chance blow, if it doesn't... not Y or X aren't applied.
