[DEV] WS Request for SMN and BLM

[Zeargi]

There are no plans to increase the damage mage jobs can do via weapon skills.

In regards to black mage, we'd like to make some adjustments since they are not able to use the TP gained when successfully landing a magic burst. However, it’s not practical for black mages to be in melee range when taking on high-level content, so instead of enhancing weapon skills, the development team would like to give black mages other avenues to use TP.

One plan that is being worked on at the moment is to introduce an ability that consumes TP to boost elemental magic spell damage. This is one way to improve black mage's damage dealing capabilities.

No offense, it's stupid that WHM gets every staff WS when their primary weapon is the CLUB. SMN can skillchain with their avatars and have access to the missing staff still would be nothing but a boon. BLM has Occult Acumen and with the hopeful revitalization of Abyssea this would also help Proc NMs. SCH gets Occult Acumen AND a Job Ability that allows for SC with spells.
