He is a corsair, isn't he?
It's like I said in another thread. Odin doesn't want him to >.>
I imagine its very hard to code that to be useful, and its Luzaf!
"difficult to code that to be useful"
Sorry but even if he only did rolls without any double ups etc it would still be better than no rolls at all, especially given how crappy DD trusts are.
Well I hate to admit it but I kinda (kinda) understand why he doesn't, with that delay on the phantom rolls to begin with it would be a waste of time. At least not until they do what they said and let them cast outside of battle (and decrease that roll time).
I haven't personally used Luzaf too much, but I think SquareEnix intended on his role in the party to be strictly a DD with the capability of removing an enemies enhancements through Quick Draw(Dark Shot).
If you look at it, he's pretty flexible right now... He can deal both physical and magical damage, piercing, ranged(Triple Shot), and can remove enemy enhancements. That's enough to satisfy my taste personally, he's a COR, sure. Remember this though, Ulmia is BRD and otherwise stands there looking like a mannequin the entire time if she isn't singing. Joachim is a BRD who throws pebbles and can help with supporting heals, etc.(God that just sounds awful though, lol.)
The point I guess I'm trying to make it SquareEnix is creating the Alter Egos with pros and cons. Such as Casters. No MP sustainment at all, but they keep you alive until the well runs dry, as it were.
The tanks, they all suddenly forgot how to buff themselves if it was originally what they do, such as Valaineral not having Protect or Shell. They keep hate well however. So I personally can see why he wasn't given Phantom Roll access... Not that I think it's fair or right, but the fact that SquareEnix thrives on "Balance".
To further prove my point I guess, let's look at it this way... When they add a BST or SMN Trust, do you think they will just say "We should make them summon Avatars to do BPs to damage and buff the party"?
Nah, they won't do that. They'll just make you require to open up another spot for the Avatar or beast pet like they did for Nashmeira. The next COR they will add though, I'm sure will be a backline fighter though. Only using Phantom Roll and Ranged Attacks. Or Phantom Roll and Melee with a Dagger.
Anyways, let's hope they reconsider the pattern still, eh? ^^ I still want to see a SMN Trust(Melee DPS) who uses Light Spirit(WHM role)!
