Limit breaks actually get no benefit from any buffs or debuffs, and the damage is calculated from the combined item level of the weapons of your entire party. So, a party with full Allag weapons will have a limit break that deals more damage than a party with full zenith, for example.
There's also a damage cap on limit breaks, though there's only one place this ever comes into question. The cap for Final Heaven is 30,000 damage, and it can only be reached during Twintania on Asclepius with Hygeia stacks.
Generally, it's better for a Dragoon to use a limit break though, as a Monk risks losing GL3 unless they time it right after a form rotation. Either way, it will do the same damage no matter which DD uses it, since it's a party-based formula and not player-based.
Aha, good to have that debunked. Thanks for the info.
