Cloudsplitter

Not to sound too much like a Negative-Nancy or a Debbie-Downer, but I think the Farasha and Cloudsplitter are so weak compared to other Empyrean Weapons to try to crush the spirit of the few remaining dual-wielding Warriors. Beastmasters are just collateral damage in Square's war against /NIN.

Well, the one problem I see with this theory is how damn much SE seems to want war to single wield lately. I mean out of nowhere they decided to give war shield defense bonus, shield mastery, and the highest level of fencer out of any job that can use it. I'm not saying that a powerful 1 handed axe WS would have made this scenario any more likely, but it woulda been the next logical step in their chosen direction

I agree that this is what it looks like they're trying to do, but it shows a level of game mechanics confusion that's rivaled by only the most impressively ignorant players. What do they think we're going to do, single wield WAR/MNK with Counterstance and a shield?
