Yeah, Hvergelmir needs something to make it worthwhile in a way that mages can actually use it for something other than just looks, or a toy on trash mobs.
As it is now, it's completely useless to it's jobs on high end content such as Voidwatch, WoE, and even most of Abyssea. It adds a different play-style, yes, but such a play-style is more detrimental to yourself and your group rather than helpful, as the point of such jobs is powerful ranged damage with perks like debuffs/crowd control/curing(BLM, SCH)/ ranged hateless damage with tank/kite capabilities(SMN).
The work =/= reward in this case, unlike the other Empyrean weapons. Sure, no one really wants the upgrade items so it wouldn't be hard to leech them, but I think I can speak for a ton of WoE/Emp/DA/OaT/Oa2-4 owners when I say that CAMPING LOTTERY SPAWN NMS THREE TO FOUR TIMES IN A ROW IS THE WORST EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD ON THIS GAME.
... and yet I've done it five times ... q.q

Parses Dallas, parses. Actually every good SMN I know also has an Ukon.

Actually, he knows me. He has seen the damage output my WAR can produce, and he knows that I'm one of the better SMNs in this game (or at least, on Asura) by his multiple complaining about my killing T2 mobs in Heroes solo. I would LOVE to see you attempt that as a melee mage Dallas. Originally Posted by Dallas

Love my ukon! I'm special!(1)

How many times have you died to AoE spam? How many times could you have not died from AoE spam if you were not out there whacking on the mob? Originally Posted by Dallas

Hvergelmir is pretty useless.
