Boost

Notes/Description

• The next autoattack will generate increased TP if it connects.^[2]
• The next autoattack or weapon skill will have its damage modified by STR.^[3]
• After the Aug 2017 update: You cannot attack anything after using Boost until it wears off if you are not already engaged (weapon drawn).
• Upon usage, character's attack is raised by 12.5%.
• Wears off upon next attack, or when user speaks to a NPC.
• Does not wear when the user counters an attack.
• Usage while engaged in combat will slightly delay the user's next attack.
  • Note that using any ability for any job causes a one second delay.
• If no attack is made within 13 seconds of using Boost, the entire effect wears off.
• Adds enmity equal to one sixth of a Provoke to the user.
• Directly increases the damage output of Chi Blast.
• If the Temple Gloves are equipped, all properties of Boost are enhanced, making the attack rise by 18.75%.
• Taurine Cesti increases the effect by another 6.25%, totaling at about 25% roughly.

Macro Syntax

• /ja "Boost" <me>

• Some people prefer to use one macro to Boost multiple times:
  • /ja "Boost" <me>
  • /wait 15
  • /ja "Boost" <me>
  • /wait 15
  • /ja "Boost" <me>
  • /recast "Boost"

Note: This is no longer possible after the August 2017 update linked above. Boost will wear before the one-minute timer cools down.
