This is just for reference to my editing of Double Attack and Triple Attack on multi-hit WS I had a small talk with Wafik and Eaglestrike in Blue Gartr forum
Here's the quote from my last post:

Can you get double DA / double TA on WS? (i.e. you get extra 2~4 hits)
because the multi-hit WS calculator on Studio Gobli thinks this way.
I personally thought (since long time ago) that DA and TA can proc once (each) on WS


Each hand can do either double attack or triple attack , but they can't both go off on the same hand.


I've had this happen to me. Back in the day when I was exping as thf/war onry for the most part and the best exp parties were at Ulli camp (before tp burn parties came around...) I popped a 12% tp return DE. 9base return + 1 DA +2 TA. I did not get hit, I did a 716ish DE without SA or TA eating sushi.
I've had it happen once more, LS was fighting a couple mobs outside of Aery and I was thf/war and got a 12% return on a spider, didn't get hit either time.
I think you've never gotten DA and TA off on MS before because it's one-hit and that single hit either procs DA or TA, can't be both. But additional hits can proc it.

I see.
now it matches nicely with Studio Gobli WS hit calculator

Multi hit WS and double attack

the current page says

"On multi-hit weapon skills, Double Attack can occur twice"

this isn't 100% true, double attack can only occur once with each hand, and each WS rather single or multi is performed with the main hand. Only when dual-wielding you gain an extra hit from your off-hand. Your off hand can get a double attack. but if your performing any WS with only 1 weapon you can not double attack twice on that WS, regardless of the number of hits in that WS.


Actually, in that same thread they were discussing how Guillotine can have Double Attack activate more than once in the same WS. Gave examples of 6 or 7 hit guillotines with the damage and tp return to back it up. So yes you can get multiple DA procs on 1-weapon or 2h-weapon WSes -Zhais


For reference of double-DA on Guillotine test Zhais' referering to: It's on this link --VZX 21:02, 27 January 2007 (EST)

Double Attack cap

Why no mention of the DA cap? NadulPandy 20:42, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

※I wasn't aware the was one. What is the cap if there is one? ★--Aizenmyou 20:44, 14 October 2008 (UTC)★
A SAM/WAR wearing Double-Attack-focused gear and +Rice Ball gear can achieve 39% Double Attack, while using Rune Halberd. Thanks to the multi-stacking Rice Ball effects, no job can reach higher... not even Warrior itself.
That may be the closest to a "cap" a player can reach. --Taeria Saethori 21:37, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Zanshin

Can Double Attack occur during a Zanshin-hit? --User:Gonavan/SigX 01:11, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
