New Limit Break Animations in 3.0

[Farah]

Are healers getting seperate animations as well or is it only dps getting new animations?

As the developers said before each classes/jobs will get their own unique animation for their Limit Break but their function should remain the same.

"She"? Isn't that a Male dragoon?

I said "he or she" because Limit Break animation is not gender based but class/Job based so both Female Dragoon and Male Dragoon get the same LB animation.

Woops! Sorry 'bout that, I have the internet taking up half my screen (More like 1/3rd) and FFXIV up on the rest :3 thanks!

Here are the things we know about the new limit breaks:

• Only level 3 limit breaks will be changed; levels 1 and 2 will remain the same, except for Bard who will get all new ones
• Each existing level 3 limit break will remain with one job that has it now, i.e. BLM will keep Meteor while SMN will get a new level 3
• Only animations will be changed, effects will remain the same, again except for Bard
• New jobs will follow the same rules, i.e. Astrologian will get Celestial Stasis as its level 3 limit break animation, but it will still resurrect all party members and heal them to full HP the same as WHM or SCH

I personally assume that all this means Bard and Machinist will get the same level 1 and 2 limit breaks (ranged physical damage), and different level 3s with the same effect. This hasn't been expressly confirmed though.

I wonder which melee DPS class will be keeping Omnislash. None of them actually use swords....

Omnislash is lvl 2, meaning they all will have it since only lvl 3 changes (thats the one Yda used in the ending btw.)

Eh? I thought Yda used Final Heaven?

Eh? I thought Yda used some riddiculusly OP spell that only archons can use that looked a lot like Final Heaven but totally wasn't.

Level 3 dps is Final Haven, which is a MNK LB (Tifa used it in VII.)

Sources? From what I've heard so far, all the limit break effects will remain identical for all jobs, meaning Bard's will still have a healing skill. Don't misunderstand, I'd love to see a DPS limit break for Bards, but it hasn't been indicated anywhere as far as I can tell.
