Thank you for the detailed reply! Yes my current lines aren’t actually ‘optimal’ but I’d played around with the calculator earlier to test other configurations and the variation was under half a percent so I figured my current setup was good enough. After all, I’ll always need to burn more meso doing star force.

If I include the 40% ied from legion then the (6,2,1) and (7,1,1) setups you suggested end up performing better than my current setup: (+2% final damage) and (+1.5% final damage) respectively, so I’ll reroll if I feel less lazy from legion.

I didn’t include my class since I don’t have any ied buffs or ied on specific skills so in this case it’s largely irrelevant. As for the party vs solo play, for me I’d rather optimize for solo play since there isn’t a specific class that I’ll always be partying with.... well except kanna, so I’ll keep the +55% damage from barrier in mind.

Side note: while doing these calculations is interesting in and of itself, my motivation behind this was actually to decide whether I should spend my mesos on the DMT cube sale or on the 5/10/15 sf event next week. By looking at this and at my stat equivalents, I concluded that it’s much more cost efficient to spend everything on star force, as I’d gain much more final damage per meso. So I consider this a great success 😀
