SO in love with the new SMN SP JA

[Clou777]

quick test on mandys outside Western Adoulin, got 6 shots off, roughly 40k dmg worth of heavenly strikes in 30 seconds

I keep DCd...
Can you Astral flow AND astral conduit?

I wanna searing light a bajilion times!
(obviously it would more be Meritx5 Astral Flowx1 cause... 100%MP... Ooooo! This restores MP?? Maybe I'll use the Astral Flow BPs more than once in a blue moon!)

I did have Meikyo Shisui and Yægasumi active at the same time, but I don't know about the effects... and Astral Flow works in mysterious ways so it is what it is!

Now if only the astral flow BPs don't consume 100% of my MP.... lol
It's definitely opens up strange possibilities to combo Flow with Conduit to get crazy big spikes of dmg....

Even if it'll only be used in WKRs............... :S

[Clou777]

you can use both but of course each flow BP will consume 100% MP but as soon as you have MP back any BP is ready to use all in a 30 second window

You only need 198 mp so maybe throw in some ethers idk. Byrth reporting doing 100k with merit bps to hurkaan before it wore so it's pretty crazy

Yeah, it's pretty crazy how much damage can be dished out of that one JA. I'm seeing consistent 10ks from Shiva's heavenly strikes.

Sublimation/Convert ^^

Though, forgive me if I'm wrong, but aren't 5/5 merit BPs stronger than AF BPs anyway? Unless Ruinous Omen actually does worthwhile damage to NMs? Other than that, AF BPs are still only really useful for multiple mobs.

Or, just Alex > Astral Conduit. At least then you can't get 1-shotted while you're standing close enough to get your BPs off. Heck, if every SMN in a WKR used Alex strategically every ~45 seconds, melees might not even die from the AOEs and could kill the NMs before the leeching BLMs manage to kill all the adds for masses of rewards.

I honestly don't remember if they are.... But... hmmm.... It's hard to tell.
Though to be honest... WKRs on Odin aren't pt'd but by a couple of ppl usually... so everyone is just in there.
BUT I can't say I've ever dropped Alex in one... so...... Does he hit everyone in a Rieve?
That would be interesting if he did.

And bolded part: yes. yes it damn is. it is the most amazing SP BP in the entire game. any smn who doesn't fulltime diabolos spaming Ruinous Omen is a bad smn.[/sarcasm]
lolDiabolos... Why you be so bad at 2hring... XD
