Trigger Coordinated Support State Clarifications
I'd like to apologise first as it appears I was unaware of some changes that happened regarding Trigger's Coordinated Support state after using EX Special or Ultimate. These changes were made during the CC Beta and do affect my current calcs. For how her state actually works:
- When Trigger uses EX/Ultimate, it checks if she is already in Coordinated Support
- If she isn't, Trigger enters Coordinated Support
- If she is, it checks if the current duration of Coordinated Support is greater than or equal to 12s/8s. If it is, the duration is set to 20s.
- If the duration is less than 12s/8s, it adds 8s/12s to the duration.
- An additional flag is also set depending on if EX/Ultimate was used, granting +4/+6 Harmonizing Shots during Coordinated Support. Both EX and Ultimate's Harmonizing Shot counts can exist together, but repeated triggers of one will override itself, meaning you will need to do 4 Harmonizing Shots before using an EX again.
- When the Coordinated Support state ends, set all free Harmonizing Shot counts to 0.
Previously, we believed that each Harmonizing Shot during Coordinated Support state granted her 1 extra shot, allowing for a consistent 10 free Harmonizing Shots per EX/Ultimate.
Currently, EX grants 4 shots, Ultimate grants 6 shots.
Using both EX and Ultimate together gives the maximum of 10 shots.
Using two EX Specials in succession gives 8 shots.
In regards to my current calcs, comparisons for SAnby's W-Engines, Drive Disk sets, Mindscapes, etc are relatively unaffected. What is affected is Trigger's total DMG/Daze contribution to the team, meaning she will be doing less DMG and less Daze than I currently have on my sheet. I would like to see if I have time this weekend before she releases to correctly calculate a new rotation to see how much Trigger is actually contributing to a team but this may be wishful thinking. I'm not the only one currently strapped for time in regards to calcs sadly but I still feel partly responsible for not checking this thoroughly at an earlier time.
Thank you very much to Soh, juste and PHllSH for going through things with me over the last few hours to correctly figure out Trigger's functionality.
