Thief update ~ new job ability "money-bag" attack

[Covenant]

I forget which, if any FF series have a Gil throw attack. Basically, you scarified actual Gil to deal moderate-strong damage. If I remember correctly, the moves used random amounts and did random amounts of damage. Also, I think Cait-sith in FFXI has this move or something similar so SquareENix doesn't neccesarily have to program from scract(excuse the pun). See, "The distorter of time"? Fight in wings of the goddess missions.

Another one of these guys eh.

Back at ya Debbiegibson. I may be a wishful thinker but a troll is still a troll.

Gil Toss FTW!

[Atomic_Skull]

I support this.

[Morgantisthedon]

I support this as long as it was a set amount you tossed so I could keep track of how much was used. Nothing to pricey though to keep it fair to all. With a lowish price system could still get players intrested in tossing gil to do damage.
It could even do
slow (mobs stops pick it up or trips over some)
Blind (mobs is in shock of wth just happened as gil being tossed at them) or similar lol.

Final Fantasy 7 Had a Command Materia to throw Gil.

[Covenant]

Well was think g random Gil toss of 1-1k Gil but damage times 1.5. So if math right, damage potential could be anywhere from 1.5 damage to 1,500 damage. Move does have a random nature so a low recast of 1-3minutes needed. One issue is whether we could recover the Gil or a percentage of it.

Maybe, if it was a tiered moved or tied to Gil finder trait level, thieves could recover more and more of the Gil?

Ranger already has this ability! It's called "Ranged Attack". Ranger has always been about doing damage by throwing "gil" at the mob.

lol XD

Gil Toss would be pretty cool as it pays homage to previous games, though provided there's a limit to how much gil you can throw, it would be a neat way to do some burst dmg. Recovering the lost gil could be done through 'Mug' then! And will the ability it stack with SA/TA?
