[dev1049] New weapon skills

[Raelia]

Inb4 Urteil finding something to complain about when DRK gets legitimately badass weapon skills because Pv- SHIT

Some of us would enjoy having a level 99 Scythe WS that is better than our level 60 Scythe WS. Just sayin'.

More indepth post on FFXIAH but for those who are wondering:

on Cherufe:
Upheavel 300%: 1944
Mighty Strikes Upheavel 300%: 4944
Mighty Strikes Ukko's Furry: 100%: 2222
Mighty Strikes Upheavel 100%: 3339

I like having your existence revolve around me.


Badass where? The Scythe WS apparently can't even beat Guillotine and for the mathematically challenged 96 is > 60 by a 36 whole levels.

Why is a DRK worrying about MP recovery in an endgame event, do your DRK's stand on the side using Tier III nukes? They are running out of MP from all their not-spell-casting between Refresh II and or consumables?

Are there Dark Magic spells worth casting that I don't know about, instead of swinging my apocalypse as fast as I can, as quick as I can?

And it recovers MP, and apparently doesn't steal it from the target. So it fails on levels otherwise thought impossible. So if the previous sentence is true: WTF.

You went full retard son.

Make the Scythe WS ASPIR MP not RECOVER.

Notawhmrdm.

I hope you're joking, that would just be total failure

[Lyrminas]

I kinda wish that emperyean weapons gave aftermath effect regardless of what WS you use <_<;;; like for Verethragna, any H2H WS should activate the aftermath, and that you worked towards that weapon solely for its aftermath capabilities.

This is an extremely confusing comment.

You want the WS to steal MP from the target so it'd be subject to resists on mobs like skeletons and other undead/dark-based mobs? Why?

very interesting, thanks for testing.

Aspir effects don't work on undeads and any mob without a MP pool. Have fun making the WS useless on half of the game's targets.

Making the WS work like Spirit Taker will let you recover MP from WSing *any* target that isn't under the effect of physical shield abilities.

Just so that Square-Enix knows, Entropy needs to have a STR mod added to its current INT modifier. Otherwise, in endgame events, what is a Dark Knight doing that's costing him all his MP that doesn't involve using Drain spells and Dread Spikes?

I am impressed with Resolution, however. I may use it in tandem with Torcleaver and its Aftermath if there is a special perk to using Resolution.

Overall, it's looking like Great Sword is really making a comeback. I can't even look at Scythe anymore.

DRK didn't need help recovering MP it doesn't use. At least make the WS make some damn sense with the nature of the job. Instead of making it like an already existent STAFF, ability.

Useless WS was already useless, now it doesn't even have the dignity of making logical sense.
