    This is true, not to mention Catastrophe, Scourge, Torcleaver, Quietus are not Elemental WS's.

    So unless SE is going to give us A+ sworld skill and Shield Skill and expects us to go around spamming Sanguine blade, LOL @ THEIR SHIT IDEAS.

    I'm hume and my mp pool can do this just fine.

    The problem is we are TWO tiers behind in spells, and don't even have magical attack bonus 1.

Second this is your big fix to DRK, keeping our buffs up 1-3 seconds longer mass killings, or allow us to buff before the big nm fight and save all that time, the extra few seconds you save us won't have that big of an effect we need a whole lot more than just that. Finally on the discussion of the sacrifices tp for more melee damage ability, it seems that everyone aside from you and leonlionheart hates the new ability, reason being ws's have tremendous power and use, for instance the new ability would have tremendous effect on the aftermath abilities of relic/mythic/empyrean weapons, and the last thing anyone whose gone thro the trouble to obtain these weapons wants is to have the power taken from them. All in all people like ws's and to take away from that aspect of DRK is just wrong, especially since what it seems like SE is doing is just turning us into an even more zergable job. Now its been brought up before and SE has ignored it, but we would much rather we get an ability that eats our mp to deal extra damage, like MP attack on FFIX, and this idea is far more popular than the 2 lame ideas SE gave us, and yes don't kid yourself the magic damage idea is lame because DRK wasn't meant to cast BLM nukes, it doesn't have the mp pool to accomendate this.
    #1 i didnt name the ability it doesn't have a name.

    #2 I never said anything about this JT being a big fix for DRK. Don't put words into my mouth.

    #3a Stop acting like it was really "trouble" to make an emp.
    #3b Aftermaths could be incorporated into the ability by using the WS b4 u activate the JA.
    #3c If you looove WS's you wouldn't have to use it... So no power is actually being taken away from you. You still have the option of hugging your X-hit build.
    #3d Dark is a zerg job so why wouldn't it be moving in that direction? Fast hard wreckless damage = zerg damage= dark.

    #4 An ability... that eats mp... to deal damage.... soooo, you mean a spell?

    #5 maybe you shouldn't of played a dhalmel or a galka. I play galka. I don't get angry at SE when they give blm new spells with higher mp costs. I don't ask them for abilities that make it easier for me as a galka to cast high cost spells. I understand that its a limit of my race. Its on me to catch up
    and work extra hard to be on top of a class with an MP pool. Other races can get plenty of MP on drk for nuking. especially in abyssea.

    #6 Why would dark cast blm nukes? Use drk nukes insted.

    #1 After a long career of activating soul powers and battlestances that draw away power from one area to bring it to another area, i propose dark knight become the master of the JA boof. Sorry everytime I read this part of your post I still ask myself wtf is boof, so the only natural conclusion is its the name of the idea your pitching.

    #2 The way you are defending this thing so hardcore your making it sound like the ultimate fix to DRK, but thats my opinion and I'm entitled to that.

    #3a There are other weapons with aftermath, or did you not know that? Also they may be easier to build than the relics and mythics but they still take more than any other weapons to get.

    #3b So in order to use aftermath in any fight that lasts longer than the original aftermath duration I have to drop this ability to build TP and then put it back up when I'm done, or SE can realize that they weren't thinking and not make TP be consumed. BIG SPOILER FOR LATER POINT: Consumes TP for more damage sounds like a WS.

    #3c So I should just be happy with getting nothing from SE again, right.........WRONG!!!!! Just because you love zerging so much doesn't mean that everyone else does. As you've seen people both JP and ENG players didn't like the manifesto for DRK, as well as many other jobs.

    #3d Remember the souleater nerf? SE doesn't like zerg jobs so ultimately the odds are heavily stacked in favor of this JA being horribly underwhelming, and thus it would just be a big waste of SE's time for something the vast majority of players don't want.

    #4 1.21 Jigawatts Marty a message from the future, Consumes TP for more damage sounds like a WS. Great scott, its almost as if its implying that instead of using TP to achieve the necassary voltage to power the flux capacitor we could use MP which it is often neglected due to lack of utilty. Jeez Doc this is heavy why didn't we do that to begin with. In case you missed the Back to the Future reference I'm impying that our MP pool is quite limited and useless at this point so why not consume it like our HP in souleater to increase our damage, an idea that is very popular amoungst the DRK community, which is more than we can say about your idea.

    #5 Its amazing how these people can't remember that they have cruor buffs on. Btw DRK doesn't even have half the MP pool of BLM, not even a third on my hume. DRK was never intended to cast t3 spells, and the casting of these spells will lower ones MP very fast and you'd be unable to use your worth while spells. PLD gets to use whm nukes right? Yes but whm nukes are low casting and have less mp cost cept holy, and besides how often do you see PLD casting whm nukes anyways.

    #6 What DRK nukes? Drain is not a nuke, its an absorb. Now if they made DRK specific nukes then you'd have a point but at this time your point remains invalid.

    Oh and to answer your question Urteil casting multiple t3 nukes would empty your MP pool rather quickly, after all at my max (no mp atmas just cruor and twilight cloak) I can get just under 700 mp, which means after 7 t3's my mp is gone, and after all we are leaving abyssea right, so good bye cruor buffs now you can only get 3-4 t3's and then you got nothing. Might be useful on those occasions were physical damage is ultra resistant or absorbed, but then again we also got twilight scythe for that so now what?

    4 million dollars is a lot of money.

    And again this is numbers based of 1 out of the many JA's and based on a machine perfect run.

    Whereas, its actually playing into all your JA buffs and in reality it actual grows stronger when u apply those mortal times when ... i dunno, you have to pee or the pull is a tiny 3 seconds to slow, or when sumone else has to pee, or poop even!, or when you kill everything in the area and are waiting on respawns, or when competition for a camp causes a slight bit of extra down time, or 100 million different other things.


    If you sumhow found some perfect LS filled with amazing people who never make any mistakes and never take bathroom breaks and never stop swinging for even seconds during an event, then congratulations. That is a real accomplishment. More impressive to me than getting all the emp, relic and empyrean weapons on one character.

    If thats the case then ya this ability might not improve your performance much. But for the rest of the population, including some really skillful players, this trait would be useful.
    i toss out numbers that have nothing to do with the argument when i Realize Im retarded too.

    #1 JA boof is just a fun way of saying JA buff. Its neat that you made a conclusion. Its more neat that you think its a "natural conclusion." But ultimately, your conclusion is flat out wrong. The Job trait has no name.

    #2 Defending it hardcore? hahaha.
    Also, you can have opinions all day. But it doesn't stop them from being completely wrong. You stated that i proposed this was a end all be all fix for dark. FACT: I proposed no such thing. Ergo you are wrong.

    #3a Yes, i know there are relics and mythics... i wasn't talking about them. In your statement, you complained about all the hard work of emp, mythic, and relic owners going to waste because of the loss of aftermath. I was merely stating that emps do not belong in that set because they take less than a week to make.

    #3b I didn't say it was perfect. I just said you COULD incorporate aftermath into the new ability. Also, pointless to even talk about things like this until the exact parameters of the ability are available. It could take your tp to 0 then have a duration based on TP absorbed in wich case you couldnt use aftermath b4 it. (but in this case if the bonus dmg from x-hit+1 swings is more than your old WS dmg + aftermath extra dmg , then the ability is worth using.) The point is we don't know how the ability works or the duration or recast so we don't even know how compatible it is with aftermath.

    #3c I just think its funny that your a dark who doesn't want to deal massive damage yet you don't want spell tricks. I think you play drk just because you like to complain. I don't envy SE employee's in charge of drk. They have to be careful what they give you because they respect the class and understand that just a little bit of a bump can turn you into broke killing machines yet at the same time they can't give you little things that add up because you all turn into sandy vag's. Ultimately, you guys won't be happy until you get something strong that is easy to use, has no drawbacks, and instantly puts you at the indisputable #1 DD spot, But that will probably take a while because your so fearful that every new JA might be worthless, that you shoot down everything. So even if SE did try to give you an ability to take u to #1, you would probably boo it into the ground before it even started.

    #3d SE is under new management... didn't u get the memo? Times are different and SE is different. If the old SE was here today 80% of the game would get a nerf. Today's SE aint sceert. (since u get hung up on weirdly spelled slang words, sceert means scared)



    #4 Ah... I see. Fictional characters in your head agree with you, so i should too. Got it. Nice one.

    #5 MP is one of the easiest aspects of the game to manage. Figure it out.

    #6 A nuke is a dmg spell. Drain II is an absorb spell sure, but it does REAL damage to the monster. Ive seen it do 1-2k often on a serious drk with a true drain casting set. Therefore it is a nuke. So my point is valid. And when they release more drk specific nukes it will become even more useful. In the mean time you don't even know what kind of strength this JA could give your T3's. Its not smart to say something is worthless when you don't even know its parameters.

    I find it funny that you use the "some players dont want to play that way" argument in your #3c point, yet you ignore this same argument when it comes from darks who want more casting options.

    @urteil DRK alredy has access several elemental WS's.

    @Jar The fact that you think those numbers have nothing to do with the argument, definitely helps me gauge your cognitive capacity.

    @Jar The fact that you think those numbers have nothing to do with the argument, definitely helps me gauge your cognitive capacity.
    Lol this is so funny, you attempted to counter all of my points with name calling and absolutely nothing to back up your original points. I would hav enever thought of using that tactic, granted I tried to lighten the mood a bit by implementing the whole B2TF reference but I guess that was lost on you.

    As for the empy thing its all a matter of resources. It takes a large amount of resources IE: Time, People, Money, to complete any relic/mythic/empyrean weapon. If someone bought 200M from rmt then they could just flat out buy a relic, or they could get a LS full of people to farm for his weapon, or small group of people to take longer farming, or farm gil and buy currency, or all the above to get a relic. Either way it takes these resources to build. Empy's take 50X, 50Y, and 75Z to get to level 90 and to get X, Y, Z you need to farm. If you had a LS full of dedicated people you could in fact get a weapon done in a week, but if you go with less its gonna take longer. Now if you want to sit there and say empy are easiest and mythic are hardest to get, no one is gonna argue with you, but your trying to say that everyone has empy's because they are super easy to get yet A.) I only have the 1, not one for all my 90+ jobs which I would if they were as easy as you claim, B.) Everyone in the game would have at least one which also isn't the case. These weapons take quite a bit of resources to make, yes they are easy compared to relics but they are the same tier, and I was talking about all 3 of them so stop selectively choosing my words and fixing them to your liking.

    I love how you mention nothing about my point of "Consumes TP for more damage sounds like a WS." It just validates that you got nothing. Before you bring up your mp/magic comment, MP attack was originally an ability in FFIX, when in doubt look for ideas in the other games because after all, SE gets most of their ideas from the past FF games.

    So you brought up the change in management, I got news for you. The guy who took over from Sir nerfs-a-lot is now in charge of FFXIV and the guy who came up with abyssea is in charge of FFXI. Did you know that? Yes I too keep up with things that SE does, and one thing I've noticed is that even tho war is incredibly overpowered, instead of bringing the DD's left behind up and leaving war where it is for now, they keep giving it more power. That tells me that they have a serious issue when it comes to balance, and remember what event brought out most of this imbalance, Abyssea, which I do like but hey its very unbalanced and the guy that created it is making the rest of our content. Ya you can have faith all you want but the rest of us are gonna speak our minds about what he thinks we want, and if you wanna see how good he is at guessing right check the thf forum out.

    Drain is not a nuke it and aspir are the original absorb spells. Thats what they do, they are designed to absorb hp or mp from the target and give it to you, side effect includes hp/mp damage. To claim they are nukes is ignorant on magic in general. Can you do decent damage, sure if the moon aligns right and you have all the right gear, but how does it compare to actually nukes.........doesn't even come close. I love how once again you ignore what I said to try and discredit me, check #6 again I said "Now if they made DRK specific nukes then you'd have a point but at this time your point remains invalid." Also Mab doesn't effect drain so why should this new ability, after all they were looking at specifically elemental nukes, so your comment about super drains is just your assumption. Btw if drain actually did do real damage it would say Drain does x damage and you gain x hit points, kinda like when you have blood weapon on and the side effect is absorbs hp.

    If you want to go on praising the new abilities then go for it, just remember your pretty much all alone. I do find it funny that the only comment with any context came at the end here, yes we do have our own ele ws's, and right now they suck, but they might be getting a boost come next update IE: SE is doing several modifications to ws's, not the DRK update.


    P.S. just because you hang out with people who use that slang doesn't mean that I do, and likewise others. It takes alot for something to became a universally accepted slang like owned/pwned or woot/w00t, and lets face it, boof or screet ain't gonna make it.

    Yeah We where totally arguing about money bro..



    Also Re-rationalizing my statement With that stupid Rescaled logic isnt Arguing its just being stupid Akining 4mil Cash moneys is nothing close to the shit you want implemented. wow we get 4% more last resort thats not even 1% damage boost over all Totally stupidity aside Please come back with another REASON why your JA is so much better than my math says it is.















    And stop BSing about empyreans like you have a good one lol axe..

Yes I too keep up with things that SE does, and one thing I've noticed is that even tho war is incredibly overpowered, instead of bringing the DD's left behind up and leaving war where it is for now, they keep giving it more power. That tells me that they have a serious issue when it comes to balance, and remember what event brought out most of this imbalance, Abyssea, which I do like but hey its very unbalanced and the guy that created it is making the rest of our content. Ya you can have faith all you want but the rest of us are gonna speak our minds about what he thinks we want, and if you wanna see how good he is at guessing right check the thf forum out.

    Drain is not a nuke it and aspir are the original absorb spells. Thats what they do, they are designed to absorb hp or mp from the target and give it to you, side effect includes hp/mp damage. To claim they are nukes is ignorant on magic in general. Can you do decent damage, sure if the moon aligns right and you have all the right gear, but how does it compare to actually nukes.........doesn't even come close. I love how once again you ignore what I said to try and discredit me, check #6 again I said "Now if they made DRK specific nukes then you'd have a point but at this time your point remains invalid." Also Mab doesn't effect drain so why should this new ability, after all they were looking at specifically elemental nukes, so your comment about super drains is just your assumption. Btw if drain actually did do real damage it would say Drain does x damage and you gain x hit points, kinda like when you have blood weapon on and the side effect is absorbs hp.

    If you want to go on praising the new abilities then go for it, just remember your pretty much all alone. I do find it funny that the only comment with any context came at the end here, yes we do have our own ele ws's, and right now they suck, but they might be getting a boost come next update IE: SE is doing several modifications to ws's, not the DRK update.


    P.S. just because you hang out with people who use that slang doesn't mean that I do, and likewise others. It takes alot for something to became a universally accepted slang like owned/pwned or woot/w00t, and lets face it, boof or screet ain't gonna make it.
    I'm done with you. You have the reading comprehension of a gnat. I'm not going to dance circles with you trying to explain the things you misunderstood, didnt understand at all, or completely missed.

    Also Re-rationalizing my statement With that stupid Rescaled logic isnt Arguing its just being stupid Akining 4mil Cash moneys is nothing close to the shit you want implemented. wow we get 4% more last resort thats not even 1% damage boost over all Totally stupidity aside Please come back with another REASON why your JA is so much better than my math says it is.
    Are you that easily side-tracked?

    You tried to imply that 4% increase was small. And just showed you that you can't use percentages to show actual value, only relative value. I did this with a money example. The topic isn't about money and i never implied it was.

    And i still maintain that your not being honest about the true amount of lost buff time that you experience in play. But thats beside the point, because i conceded my numbers based on this unrealistic idea that u only have tiny amounts of seconds wasted per buff. I gave you that one. And still when u take those seconds and compound them over several uses of several different buffs, even in this unrealistic situation, the math shows a nice increase in buff life.

    I mean meriting 50 seconds off of last resorts timer is a good call for merits. But knocking 10 seconds of the recast timer of every ja buff in your arsenal is worthless? Because that would produce the same result as conserving 10 seconds of buff time for every JA.

    And again thats assuming that you are always moving at breakneck speeds without any mistakes from now until the end of the game. A highly unlikely scenario.

    I really explained it so that, strangely enough, a gnat could understand it. Sorry it was above you but its not my problem. Go get him Jar he's sadly misinformed and has no clue what he's talkin about, plus he seems to be ignoring me.
