Lunar Slash 30% + 30% to 300% + 330%p ?
I'm confused with this. So Lunar Slash is orginall 300% but if we use Nether Shield while using Lunar Slash, the damage on Lunar Slash will be increased by 330% therefore 630% per line? Can someone make this clear for me please

@chaosh: Thank you for the explanation. I must've missed that explanation when I read the blog back then. Because I was very confused as to what %p was and nobody questioned it in the comment sections.
@chaosh: Oh okay. Thank you so much for the explanation ~ really excited for Lunar Slash! Although most people like Execution for mobbing b/c of the big hit-box. You're able to just jump up high enough to hit monster on top while for Lunar Slash u have to be a lot closer. But i've been trying to get used to Lunar Slash and it isn't half as bad!
Right now, Nether Shield PASSIVELY increases Lunar Slash by '30%'. Whether that's an additive or multiplicative increase is unsure, although I'm pretty sure Excecution is better as a mobbing skill anyway.
In reboot, the increase (still passive - Nether Sheild DOES NOT have to be active, you just need to add the skill points) will become '330%p'. From the same patch notes:
"Skill damage increases’ text explanations clarifications
(...)
Skills that increase damage additively will now state ‘%p damage increase’, skills that increase damage multiplicatively will now state ‘% damage increase’, skills that increase your damage multiplicatively but are multiplied last will now state ‘% final damage increase’."
In other words, '330%p' means that, at max level, Nether Shield will ADD '330' to Moonlight Slash's base %, so, yes, you are correct, Moonlight Slash will do 630% per line (hitting 3 times, so 1890% total damage), and become Demon Avenger's new mobbing skill even at 4th job, since they changed Execution to be better at bossing but weaker at mobbing (only hitting two mobs).
The same applies to Armor Break ("in addition to existing effects, Armor Break now increases Exceed: Demon Strike’s damage by 155%p", Demon Strike will increase from 125% to 280% (hitting 4 times, so 1120%).

Shield Chasing: Exceed: Moonlight Slash’s damage boost has been increased from 30% to 330%p
Not sure where you got the info, but but Nether Shield passively gives 30% dmg to lunar slash which has 300% base. So it's more like 400% per line.
