Candyblast

There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required. New damage formula?

Candyblast

Type: Combat Spell
MP Cost: 8

The ability to summon pasta from thin air is pretty sweet, but this lets you conjure something even sweeter -- a massive barrage of candy.

Shower your foes with candy. In a bad way.

Notes

• The spell has a hard damage cap of 50, before bonus percent spell damage and critical hits are applied.
• Each Candyblast cast has a 33% chance of producing candy.
• Only one piece of candy may drop per combat.
• Unlike other Pastamancer skills, Flavour of Magic will not change the element of Candyblast. Elemental Phials will still change Candyblast's element.
• Except for consistently dealing Physical damage and the chance of dropping candy, this spell's cost and damage range are identical to Cannelloni Cannon.

• "Hadouken" is a signature special attack used by several characters in the Street Fighter video game series.

History

• Originally, this was not affected by bonus spell damage modifications until corrected by a trivial update on December 18, 2009.
• This skill was altered during the Pastamancer/Sauceror skill revamp on November 15, 2013:
  • The cost was increased from 6 MP to 8 MP.
  • The damage formula and cap were changed. Prior to this, damage was (8-16)+((15*Mys)/100) damage, where Mys is your buffed Mysticality (capped at 134). Untyped bonus damage to this spell was capped at +40 for Pastamancers and +35 for other classes, and there was no hard damage cap.
  • Prior to the revamp, there was no limit on the number of candies it could produce in a single fight.
