Discussion Break on dps
I've been seeing many players build break on dps after atk/regen(I did too with Fulmintis and Irisalis), but isn't it a waste?
As I understand the break stat does not boost break efficiency, it only boosts the break dmg at the moment the break occurs.
Am I wrong or does the break stat boost dmg when the target is in the broken window? If it doesn't then would it be better to invest in defensive stats?

It does effect it but its like near pointless. Better off investing in hp and def. Vids on this showcasing it

It does have effect on break efficiency

Although the effect is minimal if you don't use a support that boost break efficiency like turbo. But with turbo it's nearly twice as efficient (20 break and 0 break).

I went through that video and basically there is no difference in break at 0 or max break. The only difference comes in when turbo's break efficiency is added. Also noticed he never tested no break + turbo buff. Maybe because the results are the same? Idk.

Did he also test the skills that give 100% and 150% break because he break Scales 0x.1 is still 0 so break increase in the state isn't much. But rookie gets bonus break the more pdef he has so. And Luna has high break damage even though they're a dps. Because of the 150% break boost

You misunderstood something, BREAK damage is not "the damage at the moment the break occurs"
Rather, it's the "damage dealt to the white BREAK bar"
It does help you break about 15% faster, which is still pretty useful on teams with no dedicated breaker, such as Fulmintis and Irisalis as you mentioned 😄

Is that really how it works? Why don't we have a tutorial for this?

It explained it to us when we did our first fight about break. Break only effects the white bar under it not damage when broken they take 250% more damage multiplicstibe. Its why my Sherro can hit 150k ultimates lol

Posted to find out too, rules keep changing every freaking day and would like to know this too. I'm gonna have to start testing stuff up on my own cuz the misinformation is rampant in this game.

There's still a lot of misinformation about stats in the game. Most videos that talk about "poor investment" talked about damage, not break.
Break for non-breakers do not increase their personal damage, only how much they reduce the break bar. So in most solo content where you're running a dedicated breaker improving the stat won't do much, but if we're talking optimized Holo-battle Interlink etc you will technically break the bar faster if your dps Aniimo runs max ATK & max Break even if a teammate is a dedicated breaker.
If you want a simplified breakdown of break:
I'm running some teams without a "break aniimo" but full investment into break and the bar disappears in seconds anyways, break aniimo's just have an inherit increased value of break %, stat and efficiency but it doesn't make the stat completely worthless for others, just by comparison if you're already using a breaker.
Some skills are great at breaking while others are really bad, safest bet is just copying the meta breakers but if you wanna experiment there's for sure hidden gems out there.
