[dev1058] SMN Two-hour abilities

[Teraniku]

Personally, I'd just like them to scale the original Astral Flow abilities to our current level (99) I mean they can scale everything else. including armor using level sync, Why can't they scale our avatars astral flow 2 hour abilities to our current level? Would give us some more options to use them after level 50 and might change the only use 2 hours for Perfect Defense mentality.

How does it not scale?

Unless it only last 10 seconds LOL, or 30 seconds LOL [..]

30 seconds would be amazing already.

The original Astral Flow abilities (Diamond Dust, Searing light etc.) were originally scaled to the first level cap in the game, which was level 50. They haven't been touched since.

Do you mean it was implemented at level 50 or that it was actually adjusted and balanced for level 50?

Was balanced / implemented for level 50 ish (I say 50 ish since SMN was added after original release but before Rise of the Zilart was released in Japan. Level cap was increased through the use of the limit break quests over a period of time, but the original Astral Flow abilities were balanced for whichever cap was at hand when SMN was added to the game. between lvl 50-60) which is why the original Astral Flow abilities start sucking hard on anything over lvl 60.

-The main problem is , I'm not sure the abilities can be scaled, which is why they gave us Alex and Odin as astral Flow Avatars. A Shame really, because it would open up a lot more options instead of the one trick pony of Astral Flow---> Perfect Defense. Since Odin is just about useless on most high level mobs , unless you get really lucky.
