Blood Weapon is not a 2hr Camate, please help!

[Urteil]

If Scholar can solo Shinryuu on the Test server without a brew.

And besides that extreme example we have:

Chainspell
Hundredfists
Meiko-Kill-Everything


How can the dev's even consider Blood Weapon a two hour, and are there any chances to at the very least, extend the duration?

Or something? Damage multiplier. I mean at its best its a 10 minute ability.

Tabula Rasa lasts three minutes now, and I certainly can't go solo him with Blood Weapon.


I suppose the good news is that we can only go up from here because of how absolutley terrible it is.


*Oh and make perfect dodge, dodge ranged attacks, that's stupid.

I completely agree.

I got a question for camate, camate is it because of the bloodweapon souleater kraken club combo on Absolute Virtue that our 2hr cant get an overhaul. I hope thats not holding us back...we need some adjustments to our 2hr, if you guys have any plans for this or are considering this can you please tell us

Damage multiplier

Lol.

Souleater.

Maybe its time you level a new job...?

1) How does a SCH solo Shinryu now?
2) Spirit Surge is a pretty lame 2hr too, if the DRG is already getting haste/march, half of its allure is gone, then all it serves to do is give us +15STR and a small max HP boost. Our Jumps are gimped because it consumes our wyvern and the 20% Def down from Jump is 'meh' because it doesn't stack with Angon.

The way to fix Blood Weapon... remove DRK from K Club and Octave Club. Then un-gimp BW on the NMs that they gimped it on (like AV that was mentioned). Price will drop on K club, and rise on merc Kris, but that's not the end of the world. People might even try to get a ridill again.

Ranged Attacks on PD is a very valid point, though it's been said a million times before. Probably won't happen until we can merit it though.

I'd assume it is same stupidity as with spirits.

If your 2 hour sucks (like spirits) it is a waste to update it since the time could be put on something that already works and make it better.

Observe that it isn't me that thinks this way, it is half the player base and developers.

[Greatguardian]

The smart half.

One major problem with FFXI is this seems to be a serious answer to any imbalances.
