Honestly, why DET even affected AA differently is a big question to me anyway. It made DET signifcantly stronger than the other two. In all likelyhood it will simple have the same effect on AA as it does on Skills.

Better get ready to test CRT damage increase. That's going to be a lot more fun.

Well DRG sounds even more attractive now with that CHR buff. May all our openers be filled with higher damage crits!

9999dmg with Fang and Claw and all the buffs we can active incoming.

Changes to HT and Phelb seem quite obvious, but what are they going to do to our Life Surge? D:

Life Surge might be bumped to 15% of your max hp up from 10% or maybe a shorter recast.

Wonder why they're buffing HT and Ph? I mean they're openers and do fairly decent damage for their TP cost considering there's no prereq attack linking into them. My HT does ~400-500 with like 600-700 crits. Besides, even if the potency is seemingly low, the actual damage obviously increases with STR DET and Weapon Damage, so why make them stronger I wonder. If they increase all DPS's base abilities while simultaneously increasing enemies defenses, then isn't the net effect 0? I wonder what the job balance will be when the dust settles. Obviously, I want all DPS to be exactly equal so it's a matter of style and preference than efficacy.

Because if they don't extend the durations of HT and Ph somehow, you'll never be able to rotate in 4-stage combos without dropping them.

[ht>4hit combo>4 hit combo] xN would be the most we could do with 20s heavy thrust

at 30s duration it works out though, seems like a likely choice

ht>4hit ct combo>30s phleb>4 hit ft combo, refresh ht etc
