[dev1049] New weapon skills

[Selzak]

Wow, color me impressed.

...Greatsword finally got a good WS?


Even if they all suck and just look flashy...they certainly do look flashy. Super nice job on the animations.

inb4 5-hit 0.25 fTP WSC: 22.5% MND / 22.5% CHR Duration of Magic Evasion Down varies by TP

The fTP would apply to all hits, even if the Development Bros had to work overtime to make such an innovation possible. The potency of Magic Evasion Down would be 10.

Miraculously, the one-handed Axe weaponskill would be even worse than that. Maybe it would have "Chance of not striking your own crotch while performing weaponskill varies with TP." or something.

You asked for a video and here it is!

These are just a taste of what's to come!

Pretty flashy eh? What's your favorite?

requiscat. you guys should just use the translation instead of the latin lol. "Rest in Peace" sounds so much cooler then requiscat. oh and ill hate you all forever if these arent skill based and accesable to all jobs that can hit the skill levels. ( Im talking about giving rdm requiscat.) rdm has been denyed all "skill" weaponskills since shining blade for christ sake. give us a skill weaponskill finaly.

Ok, want to know how I know these ws's are going to suck?

Well, I'll tell you.

The mobs are still standing.

If you have an empyrean, will you use these weaponskills more than the first week they're made available? Probably not, but they do look cool!

Now, do something about the Fasha damage and I'll actually be excited.

[Pebe]

wouldn't it be funny if that 5 hit GS ws was critical.....
If SCH can't use that staff weaponskill I'll be mad.

[Economizer]

If SCH can't use that staff weaponskill I'll be mad.

You'll probably get it natively like Retribution or Spirit Taker, but worst case, you'll have to sub a job capable of melee. Like Warrior, Monk, Paladin or White Mage.

I really hope that these animations were not wasted on low fTP, low mod% WSs. I hope these WSs shine and actually have a practical use and are still not overwhelmed by the 2006 era WSs. It would be such a waste of resources if these WSs are not amazing.

Hey Camate any chance there going to be a new expansion for Final Fantasy XI?

[Mizuharu]

Camate, I shall give you my Chocobo's first born if you get those other weapon skill videos soon. :Q
