GQ x3 weeks (Captain/Espada): Stickers is better than Missanga for Dual killer units (SR/Captain, Arrancar/Espada)
Hi all,
A bit of an odd one here. I did spend some time testing whether you can use Stickers in Captain's week GQ, since Daddy Ichigo has both Soul Reaper and Captain Killer.
Yes, you can and you should (if you're lucky enough to have the right Sticker).
KLab's GQ killer bonus means that you get a damage boost for possessing the right killer.
In the initial introduction, however, it elaborated that where bosses could have a second affiliation (e.g. Soul Reaper, Hollow), those killers are not boosted. This led to different hypotheses on how that could apply.
u/Riddler208 posted about the damage increase being applicable to all damage. If that's the case, boosting Sticker would work.
And it does. I made a short video to combine a couple of samples from the runs I've done, which highlights that this lets you equip Sticker on characters with SR/Captain killer, and hence Arrancar/Espada killer.
I catalogued some damage numbers from a few longer videos, which I tabulated below. Build:
- Daddy Ichigo is 3/5, SP/FCS/ATK10, T20.
- Links are Mind Rose, Retsu and SpS Rangiku.
- Base Equipment is Teaset and Fortification Pill, both SP+30%.
| Damage Points (SA1, 1 hit) | Teaset, Pill, Sticker | Teaset, Pill, Missanga |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 176,295 | 172,906 |
| 2 | 172,632 | 173,000 * |
| 3 | 182,682 | 168,987 |
| 4 | 181,000* | 171,091 |
| 5 | 169,890 | 168,987 |
| 6 | 177,077 | 172,067 |
| 7 | 184,496 | 171,091 |
| 8 | 179,189 | 162,150 |
| 9 | 179,800 | 174,754 |
| 10 | 171,026 | 173,884 |
| Average | 177,408 (+3.8%) | 170,891 |
The * meant that I couldn't read the last digits, so I rounded that down.
Theoretically, the increase in damage should be around 5.2% (Killer of 2 / 1.9), and we have an observation of 3.8%, which is a decent increase in damage.
This is fairly limited in application as there aren't that many dual SR/Captain or Arrancar/Espada.... but TYBW10 units would certainly relish this. :)
Enjoy.
