There’s no way to engage with the Sky Realm in Granblue Fantasy: Relink without diving into combat headfirst. Similar to Fire Emblem and other RPGs, the amount of damage you deal significantly influences battle outcomes. Damage Caps serve as a crucial element in calculating your skyfarers’ damage potential, but mastering their usage is essential. Understanding the intricacies of this mechanic can be challenging at first.
Whether you’re utilizing Sigils or Mastery Points, whether you’re playing solo or with friends, mastering this system is paramount to maximizing your DPS potential. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how Damage Caps function in Granblue Fantasy: Relink.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink Damage Caps Guide
If you aim to optimize your newly acquired Ascension Weapon, understanding the Damage Cap mechanic is imperative. Damage Cap functions as a Sigil that you can equip to your characters, offering buffs that elevate your damage limit. Like other Sigils, it comes in different tiers ranging from Common to Legendary, with higher tiers providing superior benefits. By equipping Damage Cap, attacks that would typically hit your damage limit can now unleash more of their true potential. For instance, if your character’s maximum damage is 1,000, equipping Damage Cap 4 (+30%) will allow you to exceed this limit, dealing up to 1,300 damage instead. The following table illustrates the cap adjustment for each level of the Sigil:
| Damage Cap | Increase |
|---|---|
| Damage Cap 1 | +3% |
| Damage Cap 2 | +9% |
| Damage Cap 3 | +18% |
| Damage Cap 4 | +30% |
| Damage Cap 5 | +45% |
Given the DPS limitations in Granblue Fantasy: Relink, utilizing Damage Cap Sigils to elevate your limit often proves more effective than merely stacking attack-buffing Sigils. Regardless of the number of attack buffs applied, your damage cannot surpass the limit. Besides the Sigil form of Damage Cap, there are also Masteries that enhance your damage limit. Finding the right balance of Damage Cap alongside other Sigils and abilities to strengthen your characters requires experimentation. Take the time to adjust your Sigil combinations and determine the optimal setup for your needs.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink is accessible on PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
