⏳🥇 In some dungeons, at the boss room, it can be advisable to play first, before the mobs, so that you may move the boss away from your team or protect your characters for instance. In order to play first, you need to have more average initiative than the average initiative of the opposing team of mobs that you are fighting.
📈 So that is what this tool is designed to do: it shows you how much initiative you need to play first at the boss room.
To play first, you need to have a higher average initiative than the average initiative of the opposing team - how the initiative is distributed in your team does not matter. You can have 6 characters with 1000 initiative, or 1 character with 6000 initiative and the other 5 characters with 0 initiative, the average initiative will remain the same.
📝🐲 First, click on the cell dotted with blue lines next to "Family", then click on the arrow to display the drop-down list of the lvl 186+ mobs families, and choose a family.
If that family has an intervention stele boss (like Aguabrial / Count Harebourg / Anathar / Cire Momore), you can then click on the cell dotted with blue lines next to "Intervention boss?", then click on the arrow to display the drop-down list from which you can pick the intervention boss.
🧙🏻♂️ Then,you can change how many characters (by default, 6) are in your team. Please note that this only changes the total ini (and not the average ini) that you need in your team.
⏳📈 The average initiative (= the total ini divided by the number of characters in your team) and the total initiative (= the average initiative multiplied by the number of characters in your team) needed to play first, in this dungeon boss room are then displayed.
