Sigh, because there is one defense check. You hit 3 x with 10 attack but enemy has 5 defense. Total damage 15

You boost twice to do 3x damage, now 1 hit for 30, defense still 5. Total damage 25.

Final damage is now 66% more than without boosting over the 3 turns.

unfortunately that's not the case in Famicom FF3... Boost (BuildUP) is a multiplier to "Final Damage" which is after defense has already been calculated.

Also, found out that while using boost you are hit with the vulnerable status and take double base damage as well (but not double healing :B)

Also, the bonus Final Damage from Dragoon's jump is also x3, so jumping is as much damage as a double Boost assuming you have the same base attack
