http://mooglebox.com/entries/ash-mas...is-lazuli).php


Please forgive a newb if this has been brought up in the past but... WTF theres no water spell ingame. Anyway i stumbled on this recipe when i was taking my lowly carpenter up. Was new to the game and could never quite figure out why they never sold.

It's not effected by Water Potency in any way, people have tested for that before.

No it's not. A dev said here on the forums that cure is not water but they did say that water spells didn't go away entirely. Some monsters still cast water and there are still water elementals. It's speculated water will be coming back to a new class, possibly Arcanist being from LL surrounded by water.

obviously i don't know much about the "cure" spell in this game, but if the mask in question does not affect it and there isnt a water spell atm it's useless. way i figure it, it shows that waters comin to the game or se screwed up somewhere.

I could of sworn a rep said water spells will come back but there wont be any offensive water spells. I'll do some searching and get back with everyone.

Also, there are no paralyze/poison/silence/absorb/slow and there aren't any plans to implement them before the launch of version 2.0. However, as we move forward, if it becomes absolutely necessary to utilize them, we will look into it.

Heres the link http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...982#post453982

So maybe offensive water spells will come back since they updated accessorizes and instead of removing the chokers that enhance water spells they updated them to.

It seems that enfeebling spells would be added with a new class/job. Red mage would be the obvious fit here or perhaps another job. Also water could be used as the primary damage spell for this class much in the same way that black mages use thunder now.

but the lapiz lazuli does add a point of MND to the mask, which wasnt there before. and hell. thats a free materia meld you didnt have to waste :)
