Boss breaking/ damage output

So I'm a level 51 breaker and every time I attack the ooze or Mauez he only takes 12-15 damage but once he is broken he takes my usual 350-400 damage can someone explain why this seem to happen?

 

I think he guards less. I've noticed this too. I'm not 100% sure though. Toram becomes really complex when you try to understand it. It's a beautiful thing really.

Edit: If you change the name of the thread to something along the lines of "Boss breaking/damage output" you'll get a lot more hits.

 

I hit them with like 100 dmg when I used hard hit. I don't know who your getting 15 dmgs for breaks.

 

no meant before i break him he takes damage of fifteen damage.

 

Each boss had different behavior,
If on Ooze, his guard rate will be less when you broke his part, not remember what part (it seems his arm).
But different on BD Decel, if you broke his horn, his guard rate will increase (seems he just buff because he angry lol)

 

atks are typically higher when you cast breaks because technically, it's you attacking beyond the guard of the mob.
one more thing to consider, your atk might be low because of the lack of variation there is in a party. for example, your pt members have to constantly spam skills, which in return increases your atk too. but if your pt members withhold their skills, then your atk will be lower.
all melee or all magic based will have low atks too. other words..variation!

 

I don't know why I didn't even take this into account. I need to stop assuming everyone knows all the factors in play xP

Quick question. How does attacking beyond the guard make a difference in damage? Doesn't guard only affect defense when ever the guard is activated?

 

It makes a difference because it just does..?? XD
everytime you tap on that break thing it will make it easier to penetrate its defenses. i think it increases to a good 20%? i could be wrong tho. but yeah, there is a difference XD

 

one thing i do know is that, break or not, when you start a boss fight, if the boss HP is between an estimated of 90-100%, you will notice that you deal significantly less damage.

But, after you damage the boss for more than 10-15% of its HP, you will notice that you tend to hit really hard and your DPS just skyrockets.

And this applies to a dying boss too, with its HP less than 15% or so, it will take significantly less damage.

So, the best time to deal massive damage will be during 20-80% of current boss HP.
