Upgrade ideas for Azure Lore

[Ackman]

This update on BLU 2H is just useless, cause azure lore duration is only 30 sec, unless you are sub /sam or using icarus wing you'll see no real difference between using chain/burst before 2H

But its better than nothing.... even if there's a lot of better idea on this thread than what we will have... thank you SE...

Um.. Unless they change it as well, Azure Lore acts as though you're at 350% TP for spells. So if they don't change it, now you're talking spammed CA'ed Physical spells at 350% and possible skillchains off thereof. That feels a bit more like a 2hr, no?

With only having one common spell that gets set working well with Azure lore seems prtty nice. Also you don't even need tp under CA to make a SC, so if it works the same even better.

Now to find a good 5 step Darkness SC ending with Quadratic or Benthic. Assuming one even exists lol.

I'm extremely happy to hear about this change and am looking forward to the day when I get to use it. My only reservation is whether skillchain damage will benefit from the thing where SCs will now reduce elemental resistances on the mob temporarily, meaning that skillchain damage will be able to punch through on NMs.

Of course, our potential damage with Azure Lore SCs will be vastly reduced by the fact that our physical spells don't do well on higher-end NMs, but considering we weren't doing much before I'll take what I can get.

Ideally we'd want to end on a Light so that we could pop Wings and continue the SCs with Chant Du Cygne after Azure Lore is over.

They just gave us a TP-Independent SAM 2HR with Blue Magic, what could be any better than that?

Personally, Skillchaining and Magic Bursting with Enemy Skills for OMGHOT damage was what attracted me to BLU over SAM in the Hayday of ToAU. Making Azure Lore follow suit in its pattern of regular job abilities on a grander scale just downright fits with the job.

Good work, SE.

Dude... your kidding right? with casting times being .5 seconds, who cares if its still 30 seconds, as long as you got a 2 hour macro you can still pump out some sick damage on BLU. Macros are your friends people.
