Dearest Community,
I have arbitrarily decided that BLM is greater than SCH.
I have absolute and damning evidence to back this up, though I do have screenshots and parsed results, I will only promise to post them teasingly, but I shall not actually post them.
What is my reasoning behind this claim?
Height.
Yes, that is correct, you read it correctly, and that is not a mistake in my typing. Height.
I truly believe, due to the long lists of parsed results and data, that a taller mage is a better mage.
Wait! I hear you cry. All models are the same height per race, so a Taru SCH = Taru BLM. - Well yes, but it is of course the gear which counts! A BLM can reach 80% FH while a SCH can only reach 75% FH (FH = Full Height) and this is due to gear. Sure a SCH can don the pointy Pineal Hat, but the BLM AF3 hat is just that bit higher, which gives them the edge. I can prove this with screenshots if you would like... when I finally get around to taking it and posting it of course.
Now I hear you cry "But that means ELF = King of the mages?" - well again, this would be true, but it is relative height. That is, the taru actually has the tallest gear due to the nature of their small stature. COnfusing? I thought you would be, well allow me to post some more screen shots and parses to follow to prove what I know to be absolute.
Needless to say, anyone who refutes my findings shall be know as a "Hatter" - Pronounced "Hay - Ter". And I shall ignore them or call them smelly poo poo heads in my responses.
