Shock Squall

[Clou777]

Its a bloodpact WARD and it has a much faster charge time than all the other BPs

lol 90-95 and all smn gets is erasega and stunga, and last 20 levels not one new damage bp. smn sure has gotten the shaft as far as the level cap increases are concerned.

[Neonii]

Yep and the smn boards are so dry it shows. Not many excited about smn. I would really like to ask the head summoner why.

A stark realization came to me last night when I was leveling in a small group with my ls at abyssea - altepa. Was only a few of us and to stop from bothering getting in a party full of potential fools, we just went off on the orbs right next to doll camp. The others was mostly just leeching exp while I got bored and knocked off a few trying to increase my smn magic (a failed effort btw.... ; ; Hate trying to recap it.) But the BLM was pumming out -ga and -ja spells without without even bothering to use MAB atma, instead using all refresh atma and he was killing in two spells, three tops at 91.

Was even more embarrassed when I decided to use Odin on a pull and only killed two while he offed the other 10-13ish of them. Why are we able to summon the gods of vana'diel and still suffer as third rate magic DD. D:

Did Shock Squall retain the horrible Stun visual effect it had on test server or was it changed to something more fitting to Ramuh and lightning?

Sora, what are you using for atma? Just checking that you upgraded to match your new toy.

Relevance? SD, VV, RR.

No, it basically still has the same stun effect as the other mages. SE getting lazy with SMN again.

Relevance?

Relevant to your post. You used physical atma and complained about being a third rate magic DD. I think I know how to solve that!

:P

You asked what I use to match my new 'toy', Hvergelmir. A weapon I would not use with MAB atma using magical blood pacts given better choices without gimping myself inside abyssea, and very little merit outside when trying to increase damage of our breadwinners, the avatars. I was basically one shotting surveyors, but beside the point in comparison to mage jobs that rely on offensive magic without even using MAB atma, which proves they can still do ridiculous damage outside of abyssea. Last I checked, summoner fit under being mages as well as a pet job, regardless of blood pacts being physical or magical if you want to sit there and split hairs on terminology.

Well, yeah. The solution is to not use magic DD. And get rid of Sea Daughter, that gimps both of you.

We've always been better "solo DD." Physical pacts just synergize better.

:P
