He's talking about it like it's super complicated, but it's just the knowledge that every level in ANY spell raises your attack power. More power means more damage per point of mana, so it improves damage, efficiency, and burst potential all in one.

I was wondering why he wouldn't call it a "volley", or the Japanese equivalent, like "a volley of arrows." That world has physical fighters and archers, so even if they don't have modern artillery, they should have a word equivalent to "volley."
I believe that volley are "synchronized shootings", but barrage is more "high intensity free fire" (shoot as fast as possible, but not synchronized with other shooters)

Specifically, levelling up magic skills increases your INT stat, which is used in the damage calculation of magic attacks.

It’s similar with physical skills too; by mastering a bunch of different weapon skills (instead of focusing on one) his base STR, SPD, VIT (HP), and other stats are way higher than normal warriors.

Man I love this manga a lot. The characters have mostly been very interesting so far and the plot has been fun. I’m not too much of a fan of this arc because a lot of the highly prideful mages are acting like little shitheads but it’s always nice to see MC flex.

Please continue translating this one Kirei Cake! It’s been a while and the updates are hopefully getting good.

Thank you so much for the translation!

This isekai is loosely based off of Mabinogi-ish F->1 Skill Rank scaling and he's just explaining stat bonuses from skills ranks.

Incidentally the concept of Titles is also very Mabinogi-ish.
The form names are directly from FFXIV though.

Last 2 chapters were released with 161 days apart, each, from the previous chapter.

I find it rare to have a skill measurement go from N-to-1 (16/hexadecimal in this series). Having the same form name across element/ability makes it easy to combine instead of like "fire shot" vs "thunder strike" (in this fictive example they are same form/grade).
I guess FFXIV is Final Fantasy 14, a video game, never played any in the series. No idea what Mabinogi is - a search says another video game.

This manga feels like it went back to the early arcs every time I read it

Magic Curtain. If you play bullet hells, you might be familiar with the term, since they're called "danmaku" in Japanese, which means "barrage", and literally translates to "bullet curtain".

Such a troll.

Arguing against different philosophies for training magic and both saying their version is the only right one. Seems like any other argument on the Internet.

The DPS explanation seems needlessly complex.
they don’t have artillery but they do have Touhou Project lmfao

RIP commander Zephyr you were the only competent guy in that division…

But seriously, "Maximise injuries rather than fatalities" may be a perfectly effective doctrine on our earth but I question the wiseness of it in a world of magic. Especially since we do know this world has healing magic. And we know at least one item that allows anyone to cast healing magic. And said item is strong enough to allow some people to go as far as growing back severed limbs (even with their clothes ?).

I get this sub-arc is all about how this world's armies are mostly inept about properly using magic. But it feels like healing magic would be the very domain where they wouldn't be slacking off and ignoring its potential ?
