PC has better +stats but WoP is a cheap erase-ga, not only removes the detrimental status effect (Slow / Bind / def-down / attack-down / gravity / ect..) but also anyone near you.

It's also my understanding that Zanshin doesn't work if your dual wielding, so kinda a useless job trait for BLU.

You maybe confusing zanshin with hasso/seigan. They only work for 2H weapons. There is unconfirmed info on wiki that it doesn't work for H2H, but no mention of dual wielding. It's easy enough to test though, I just need something with high eva to test it on.

As for the missing traits, it really depends what sub I'm using. DW3 and triple attack are particularly useful if you're /war in a group situation and just going for all-out DD. For solo/low-man I usually /dnc, so I have DW 2 already, and there's not a massive jump between 7% DA and 5% TA (especially if Zanshin does work with DW). This spell set is based upon /DNC.

I was mainly just playing about with different set to see what was achievable with JTs while trying to get as much STR as possible. This gives +22 STR.

It isn't unconfirmed, people just don't know how to source properly. Effectively H2H and DW function in the same manner as well, so even if the test was done for just one of them it would be within reasonable levels of confidence that it's true for both.

Well, I'll test it anyway. I suppose that I shouldn't be shocked to find SE gave BLU a trait that's not worth using. BG wiki doesn't even mention it not proccing on H2H or DW either.
