Nantes Gamewatch interview summary

[Velox]

Giving WHM and SCH increased DPS potential is mainly to offset the limited DPS potential of AST (which, will instead, be heavily supportive of the party in general, possibly doubling overall party DPS efficiency). It's also to close the gap between WHM and SCH DPS potential. Currently SCH DPS potential is much greater than WHM due to A) have a DPS base class, and B) Lustrate, Embrace, and Whispering Dawn all ignoring Cleric Stance (while WHM only has Benediction and it's lol5min cooldown), and C) SCH having 3 DPS skills that completely ignore ACC requirements while WHM has none.

C) SCH having 3 DPS skills that completely ignore ACC requirements while WHM has none.

Name for me the 3 skills that ignore ACC requirements. I as a scholar have noticed the following spells miss: Bio, Bio 2, Miasma, Miasma 2, Energy Drain, Aero (cross class), Ruin and lastly Ruin 2. That leaves Shadow Flare which doesn't seem to show tick damage or hit/miss messages on screen so I'd be most interested in where these other 3 spells that ignore accuracy requirements are.

Bio and Bio II can not miss because they don't have an upfront damage component to them, unlike Miasma, Miasma II, and Aero. Because hit is calculated based off initial potency, Bio and Bio II always have 100% hit.

Shadow Flare always hits as well (as long as the enemy stays within the AoE) since it's calculated much like Bio and Bio II (just in AoE form). It has no upfront potency for hit to be calculated with.

Bio and Bio 2 do not miss ever. He's wrong with having 3 dps skills that ignore ACC as it's only them two. Unless you include shadowflare but I'm not.

I must have been casting them on players instead then T_T

Spells that do not deal immediate damage cannot miss. Bio and Bio II cannot miss.
