I'm... kinda disappointed.



Just so the dev's know raise 3 wasn't the update to light arts we were all hoping for.

I've graduated from disappointed to insulted at this point. Raise 3 and Reraise 3 are a slap in the face to SCH requests for healing capabilities. Nothing from the THREE feedback posts is even remotely represented in this non-update, except the two hour spells that are sounding more and more like they're headed toward the same island of forgotten spells that lolquium and animuseless have been exiled to. At least for a week I thought I'd have a nostalgic spell name to cast, but naturally even that was nerfed, and before implementation.

I've settled on calling it Crapstra. Either that or its potency will be gimped because all the macro lines I'd usually be putting gear swaps in will be reserved for the text "<Casting spell> Merton on <t>" in every chat mode available to macros.

So looking forward to being relegated to Fell Cleave burns in Abyssea, watching RDM and BLM use superior versions of my strategems.

Seriously, this is what we waited a year and have an official forum for?

Incoming *** from SCHs not getting Cure V yet...oh wai...

Question for the Team: Will Temper's "Occasionally Attacks Twice" function like Double Attack as found on gear and the trait, or more like Joyeuse and other multi-hit weapons in that it won't work on weaponskills?

Edit: And whether or not it's self-cast only.

I am kind of happy RNGs get a ghetto TA now we can do something with all that enmity we keep building up.

Now to use it on one of our unsuspecting BLM in our LS who likes to Retrace people for fun... That'll teach him to retrace me when I try going into my Mog House. ;o

It appears that the current in-development name for the spell previously known as "Merton" is now "Kaustra."

Son of a Submariner! I was looking forward to being able to cast Merton!

We all were. I'll probably still call it merton for a while heh.

Thief questions:
Do we have to be the active target for intimidate to work?

Are DW and Triple Attack increasing at all?

Also besides merits its this planned as part 1 of 2? Cause a lot is missing even before the 99 update.

[Lushan]

Umm...did i miss something, or did Monk and WAR get overlooked?

[Ank]

Overlooked? I think you did.

[Tarage]

....really

Yeah. Turns out when a game is localized, you tend to want to localize everything. I'm not talking about player interactions with players from other cultures and languages. I'm talking about the ENGLISH version of the game.
