This is a new sneak peak video of the weapon skills for the jobs coming in patch 1.21!

The weapon skills we showed off prior for some jobs have been tweaked a bit as well.
Hope you enjoy!

Almost all recycled from from FFXI with flashier effects.

W00t! Very nice. Sound effects, animations, short execution times, all great. Good Job!

Yeah, we are not getting AF weapons with 1.21 unfortunately. Was announced a very long time ago though, so plenty of notice given.

I love the sound effects that accompany them, especially the Paladin WS.
And using Jump makes the Dragoon disappear into the sky? Hell yes.

Yep, pretty much like ho FFXI's Jumps were for DRG (specifically Super Jump.) It looks and "feels" really good, especially if it's a chain WS, like Stardiver.

BLM spell looks GREAT! Good job devs. This is what I would expect from FF titles.

As far as weapon skills go, they're OK for the level they're meant for. Only thing that seems out of place is BRD's WS. I think the visual effects on the mob should appear after the BRD uses the weapon skill, not at the same time as the "charge up" phase.

Apparently some people can't ever be pleased.

Hell it pleases me because it shows they finally aren't ignoring/forgetting what they did in the past (though I don't really see much recycled...lol)

Now they can move onwards while using it as a base >.>

holy shit thats what we all expected with ancient magic, now i really know that we ll get a bad ass game in 2.0, just seeing that blm spell and bardcher ws was awesome. Good job dev team, now hurry up and give me my patch XD

The PLD WS looks different to the little preview that was shown on youtube for a short time. The way the character flips the sword back around in their hand after the stab is less flashy now.. Still looks really nice with the visual effects added though :p
