The unraged overdrive skill is a completely different type of attack. It's AoE rather than single-target.

*sigh* Every time dude? Really?

"How much are you being hit for, specifically by the completely separate unraged Area of Effect Overdrive skill from the Expert Level Garuda Event boss?"

R fire kamihime do just fine after they hit level 40 or so.

One of the tables on the wiki gives Expert difficulty Garuda as hitting for:
~1k per normal, high chance of extra hits while not raging
~1k per normal hit, 3 hits while raging
'over 1k' from the overdrive attack while not raging
4k to a single target from the overdrive attack while raging

Tricky part is I'm unclear about how well the contributor was at minimizing factors in order to get as close as possible to the raw base damage.
For what it's worth, I think somewhere around 1k or low 1k would be right for the base damage of the non-raging overdrive attack. I see high 3 digits to neutral kamihime after one atk debuff or another. I also find the 4k from the raging overdrive to be in the right ballpark, but I'm working backwards from the couple of hits I've seen with debuffs/buffs active. I'm also assuming the damage formula works both ways when doing the napkin calculations.

Ya I'll be fine if it gets too hairy (have maxed 4* bryn and amon to replace Baal and Ramiel). Pretty much all my characters are maxed out or close too it (aside from books). Just leveling up my newest dark kime (tsuku...who blinds your entire team for some reason), Roland, and my backup Rs with this event.

To continue this after another attempt, I find the '~1k' per normal while not raging to not be accurate; I see ~1200-1300 to neutral kamihime with nothing active IIRC.

Nevermind, the 1200-1300 was probably with something active after all, as now I see 1300-1500. The perils of a whiffed Mistletoe Drain. The normal hits while raging on the other hand do hit for less damage compared to not raging.

On my Fire team, I saw 800-900 damage from the AOE and 1000 from single hit attacks. The strongest single hit was 1200 against fire Arthur, landed right after I knocked it into Stun mode (which I believe makes it a Rage attack). From the post above me, looks like fire gets a 20% resistance advantage.

don't know if my team got stronger or the wind event boss is weaker than the last event's light boss who can one shot units

I haven't spent a jewel in retrying on expert mode - huzzah!

I have 200SP and can buy a new soul. So, who is better for ultimate:
- rage-killing hammerer
or
- wich-hunting debuffer

My current team (Roland, Kleo and Dart) barely kill expert
