Empyrean weapon needed adjustments

[Cream_Soda]

As it is now, every Empyrean is essentially the same weapon.

Build TP to 100, 200, 300, get an identical aftermath. There aren't anything that focuses on job abilities or traits, like mythics, and there's no great special effect, like on relics (Increases critical hits on Ragnarok, Enhances counter on Spharai, Amano's ability to weaken attacks, etc.)

That being said, I think it would add uniqueness to Empyrean weapons giving each of them its own specific special quality to separate them from one another. DMG wise, they're in the middle of relics and mythics and on each end of that, you have enhancing qualities to either job abilities or the weapon itself.

Empyrean weapons should also have this.

I think that's a great idea. Empyrean weapons should not live in the shadows of relics.

I agree with this.

Yo Creamsoda, I'm really happy for you, Imma let you finish but I think I have one of the best ideas of all time. One of the best of all time!

Currently 2H Empyreans get the same ODD% as 1H Empyreans, though ODD can proc on all of their swings compared to 50% of a dual wielded empyrean's swings. Monk counts as a 1H Empyrean in this case, as ODD can only proc on their second fist. The obvious solution here is to give ODD to both hands for 1H users instead of confining it to the main hand. The same should be done for Mythic 1H Aftermath level 3s, as it is a similar problem.

The second big issues with Empyreans (and Mythics, I think) are that 300TP Aftermaths do not overwrite themselves. 100TP overwrites 100TP. 200TP overwrites 100TP. 300TP overwrites 100 or 200TP, but 300TP doesn't overwrite 300TP. Assuming someone wants to keep an activated level 3 Aftermath, they need to start TPing up to 300TP before their aftermath wears off. One or two lucky Triple Attacks with a 2H Empyrean or Mythic can put you at 300TP early and waiting for your aftermath to wear off so you can reapply it. It would be easier if you could just WS as soon as you get 300TP and reset the timer like you can for 100TP. I can't imagine this would be hard to fix, and would allow for smoother gameplay.

My final issue is with multiple aftermaths at once. There's about one (quasi-)practical application of this, and that's Mythic GKT with Relic bow. I know someone with both, and he can't have both Aftermaths active at once despite being able to equip both weapons at once and use both weaponskills. Why limit it?

Actually no, considering it was moved here, I guess this is where they want it, lol.

They are much better. They don't need buff either. Mythic are a fail attempt to do a weapon.
