You're half correct. You're forgetting Souleater. If it becomes something we can use all the time, that's when our DPS will be really broken, especially outside abyssea. We'd be outdamaging everyone.

im very skeptical about it atm, hence i didnt comment about it i do love the idea, my being galka and having the -50 mutedsoul which ima test out to see if its worth it if im fulltiming/frequently using SE or if those merits are better used on diabolic eye or dark seal

edited: also im assuming mp will not be like it is for abyssea eg millions of refresh/high mp pool

You missed the point of the topic

The idea is to have Absorb-Speed (a spell that not only fits DRK really well but also would be worth casting) work along side Last resort.
Not to mention this would be something worth having the mythic for.

I think the best way i've heard so far it that it doesn't stack with the white magic haste and gives a potency of around 20% which will average to about 12-13% haste overall (neiter void adding another 5% or something)
at least this way it would be a good debuff at the same time.

edit: i would guess the mp cost would be 33mp like the other absorb spells

I love how some people like to put words in other's mouths. When in the hell did I ever say game breaking?
The fact is, with LR and desperate blows you're about to get pretty crazy outside of Abyssea (oh, you forgot content outside of Abyssea existed didn't you) and if this 'absorb speed' stacks with haste like many of you want, that'll be JUST LIKE this LR boost in that it'll become less influential with more support since with said support DRK can already reach the haste/attack speed cap so you gonna whine about that too?

That is part of the topic on how to balance it .... please read

If you have any ideas on how it should work post them(even if it is it shouldn't stack with haste and should be a lower potency) otherwise your missing the point.

Oh. Another person to use the word "whine." Really, the only whining I ever see is not from our discussions on topics, but people who come from nowhere and complain that we're trying to discuss it.

Or, in short, the pot calling the kettle black.

Also, I don't know if you noticed, but the "outside abyssea" argument barely holds any merit because it's assuming these new Voidwatcher NMs will be at all useful and if the Dynamis update will warrant more use out of the event. Otherwise, there isn't much of an "outside abyssea." As of right now, FFXI is Abyssea. So you can take your condescending attitude back where you came from.

don't feed the trolls, brb rating him down (that'll teach him!)

You can rate people down? o.O

Can you rate people up? Besides their posts of course. If so, I owe quite a few people here some ratings.

it was a reference to the good old alla days where rating was all that mattered, not post content lol <_<

Oh.
