yeah

so you can merge to get 200%

and then chain with 2 to get +100%

and then a 3 chain gives +300%?

no so

merging them to NP2 for example

unlocks the ability to charge PAST 100%

to 200%

then uppping that NP level

allows you to charge to 300%

which is the cap

THEN if theyre last in an NP chain

they get two 100% bonuses

to get 500% overcharge

what is the difference between merging and upping np lvl?

its the same thingh

merging is just NP#

so NP1 is no merges

NP2 is one merge

NP5 is the max and is five of the same

"then uppping that NP level allows you to charge to 300%"

what do you mean by this?

when they

increase NP level

I.e. NP2

you then unlock 200%

SO

NP3.....

so I have 2 robinhoods

I merge them

I can get to 200%?

he will beNP2

yes

oh

so look at this

I thought it was 120%

no

NP3 is 300% or less?

so if you did Zhuge, Anderson, Robinhood

the % is just your new cap

like what does NP5 do?

you can go PAST 100%

nothing

well

more main effect

so for jeanne alter

each NP level increases the damage of her NP

so instead of 600% damage, its 800, to 1k

oh

I didn't realize that

2/3 just increase the CAP

of NP gauge

yeah ok

you almost NEVER use 200/300%s tho

like two servants abuse it really

so it's mostly for dmg

or some arts loop bs

no the

% doesnt matter

dmg/np effect

for damage

no I ment

NP5 will ALWAYS do 1000% for her

merging in general

yeah

and only a few servants really benefit from merges

dantes, artoria summer

wellfares

lancelot berserker

but in an np chain

the one that goes last has the most effect

first = no bonus second = 100% increase third = 200%

i think

i dont actually npchain much

it could be 200% to all tbh

idk

do busters really try to use nps or just try to get as much dmg out as they can?

st ones at least
