Remember Ob!

Also, ugh... I don't want to do another dang trial....

Good evening,

Thank you for the suggestions, everyone. I Just got word back from the Development Team and currently there are no plans to add animators to trial of the magians for enhancement. The reason is because you would be able to receive the beneficial effects from both h2h weapons and animators.

And yet PLD has always been able to benefit from both sword and shield, and BRD has always been able to benefit from both instrument and dagger. This rationale doesn't seem to make much sense.

As opposed to people who dual wield trial weapons.........this doesn't make sense. Ok how about this can you at least add some new animators with decent stats that we would want, for instance an animator with pet haste 10~25%.

Does this mean your going to nerf Ninja, Dancer, Blue and Thief so that they can't dual wield anymore (and every other jobs that subs it)?

Even my girlfriend who has never played this game looked at that response and went "WTF are they talking about? Doesn't your 'little ninja character guy thingy' already do that?...".

Tell me something I don't know about the stupid replies that the poor community managers are forced to bring us on behalf of the dev team.

If they bother replying again, they're just gonna say that dual wieldable magian weapons were balanced around being dual wieldable.

Still a retarded reason, don't get me wrong.

I'd be okay with just being able to throw the current animators like a boomerang. Or being able to equip something besides oil in the ammo slot with an animator equipped. But sadly, these are but pipe dreams.

Magian 2handed weapons actually get larger bonuses than 1handed weapons(elemental path) i.e STR polearm gets 26 attack vs 1h weapons getting 22(although it SHOULD be higher since you can dual wield 1h weapons for 22 str and 44 attack)
