Upheaval

Not only that, we get eight other new WS to play with too, I know lots of you are really happy about that and I am too.
Upheaval modifier I've been told is VIT and a four hit WS, DMG varies with TP? VIT I must have been misinformed?

[Neisan_Quetz]

The modifier is purely VIT.

Have never used it myself, but it could be useful under Mighty Strikes. From the info I have, it should be 3 fTP 60% STR vs. 4~5 fTP 100% VIT (depending on TP), so I can see Upheaval beating Ukko's with proper gear, since there are many good WS pieces featuring VIT. However, that isn't taking into account any Skillchain properties, where Ukko's obviously wins again.

Conquerer would benefit the most under 2 hour honestly.

Not that it wasn't already very good... under 2hour. and in VW since you can keep spamming wings.

Cool, well we can work with this.So, we stack up on VIT and ATK, ACC is paramount.Um.. SEA torque, WS belt (which one/s !?, guaranteed acc added to each hit), Twilight helm, VIT earring, brutal, relic+2 hands or Ares's hands (ares win I'd say kuz Acc), Ares Cuirass(VIT, s**t loda atk and atk fromfSTR) or Twilight mail (ACC no ATK) even Osode or the new -pdt boddeh, VIT ring x2 or ACC(depending on lvl of mob or it's EVA), Jingang Feet + legs, back the ol Atheling Mantle.
Again ACC is paramount and in abyssea you can hax all the ACC u need.
I think this is the right direction at least

Pick up Upheaval last night, got it's first use against that taru limit break fight. And I've gotta say, the animation on this is great.

Edit: Currently 5/5 on Upheaval. Out side abyssea number's teeter 1200 ~ 2500 with no buffs up. With standard WAR buffs up i've seen number's up to around 3500. Inside abyssea i've seen up to 5500. Any one else seeing better numbers or about the same?

Has any one tested alignment gorget/belt with this WS yet? I hear it's Light, but I don't have one atm and I'd rather not go threw the trouble of making one if it's not it. Tho I guess the belt wouldn't take much effort to get.

Fusion/Compression means Light, Fire and Darkness gorgets.

fTP doesn't carry through all hits use Apathy gorget and Warwolf instead of gorget/belt.
