level 4 skillchain

[Volkai]

I think it would be cool to have different kinds of level 4 SC, including Cosmic Elucidation. They could have short term effects, or effects that works once to make it fair and balance. As appose to triggering some mobs weaknesses with different color stagger. How about;

Lv4 SC that freezes the enemy. Like Terrorize.

Another that prevents it from using abilities or TP moves.

One that stops it from casting magic.

Or something that makes it confused and occasionally attacks itself lol

thoughts?

Unless this effect would be part of a '!!' triggered by the skillchain, and not a part of the skillchain itself, it would break with the existing rules of what skillchains do.

Additionally, we can't have more than one kind of level four skillchains, because of the way they are tiered. All skillchains align with an element, and the only possible elemental combination for level four is all eight elements.

The effect could be based on the element used to close the level 4. There are may ways of implementation.

Also, this doesn't have to be part of a trigger system to work. Currently, skillchains create an extra effect of damage. This "liquifaction" or "fusion" burst type effect could logically have an additional effect tacked on. There is code to add damage, so it's not far fetched to think they could put that snippet in.

All I'm saying is skill chains already do extra dmg and allowing magic burst, so how about allowing Lv4 to do more than just looking pretty with extra damage. At Lv95 and Lv99 we might see new weapon skills along with their own element for closing skill chains. If my idea becomes reality then those weapon skills should have a certain added effect upon closing a skill chain.

EX: Tenzen weapon skills:
Oisoya --> Amatsu: Tsukikage(closing with Amatsu: Tsukikage will allow aoe terrorize) = Cosmic Elucidation.

wishful thinking..
