Aftermath: Level 3

[Tamarsamar]

Doesn't the Empyrean "Occasionally does double damage" Aftermath already override itself? And at 100% TP, to boot?

Because if so, I'm not sure what's the big deal about making Mythic Weapons more viable. Altana knows they need it.

This is incorrect, they do not overwrite their own Tier anyway. AM1 will not overwrite AM1, AM2 will not overwrite AM2 and AM3 will not overwrite AM3 for ANY Empy or Mythic. What they will do is overwrite a smaller one. AM3 will overwrite AM2 and AM1. AM2 will overwrite AM1.

Also empy AM's are different based on the TP level. Each level gives more duration and a larger chance to proc.

Edit: I should note that the Empy aftermath is basically the same for each level, just stronger. While for Mythic each level does something entirely different. AM3 is the ONLY AM you'll ever want up as AM1 and AM2 are rather minor. And since they cannot coexist with AM3 and AM3 is what makes the weapons, the other levels are pointless. Keeping AM3 up though, is quite difficult for most jobs and those that can, still can't plan to time getting 300% tp perfectly as explained by Martel's post. So their, "Plan for it" is hilarious.

IIRC, the AM effects of Relics, Mythics, and Empyreans arn't even the same buffs, so it's not like they'd even need to adjust the Empyreans or Relics if that was an issue.

Throw in another vote for them changing AM3. The only thing this would do is save a couple seconds of meleeing TP and make it more convienent for use, as Byrth mentioned. For almost all the mythics (Aside from DRG. PUP and...I think that's it. BLM, I guess? lol), the WS is garbage anyway, so wasting 300 TP on a mediocre WS is already a pretty big detriment.
