Marauder 1.20

Ok, i misread necrogenesis text. My bad. So nothing from THM can actually be used.

For CNJ, tho, stoneskin is pretty good due the hight enhancing magic from VIT. I've been trying to combo Sacred Prism and Stoneskin and it working pretty well in heavy damage fights. Also, need to see if the enmity is increased this way since a "curaga" can also draw some cool enmity.

I was thinking...a good adjustment to the class would be path of the storms being radial AoE again and increased damage or increased enmity as WS bonus. But i'd also change the bonus condition from "WS from behind" (which nearly killed any possibility of using Whrilwind in combo against multiple monsters) to "2 or more enemies at AoE range". This way it would only have the bonus effect if used against groups of monsters, restricting the use against bosses and stuff, but making it very effective where it matters...group fight.

EDIT: Forgot to say why i think it's a good change....it would leave MRD with a tank combo (heavy swing one), a DD combo (brutal swing one) and an AoE combo (path one)

I'm under the impression that combat will seem slower now with such high cooldowns on weaponskills?

i was able to execute 7 ws in a row yesterday one after another, so its not that slow. Just requires better understanding of your class now.

Ha, trust me, it can be that slow. I didn't think Accuracy was an issue, and it may not be. But I unluckily missed 5 times in a row in Natalan. So yea, it -can- go slower. lol.

Also, Quelling Strike adds 300 TP gain to WSs. Got some more playing around to do though, may have to check out DEX rings to see if they can tip the Accuracy issue at all, or if it's even worth it. I think it was just luck though.

my AA misses allot more now, but i rarely miss a ws.

Yes, that's where I noticed the hit to Accuracy. WSs I haven't noticed missing a lot, though I've easily missed a few, very infrequently so far though.

Nice work Belial!

Funny, but you would have to be doing a lot of nothing before you get that tp first.

Nice work Belial!

Thanks Miyaka, I've been a little lazy as I've been making a huge effort to grind my classes to 50 for the Paragon Crown, but I'm slowly but surely updating bits and pieces, hopefully I'll be able to add a lot more to this over xmas break.

I would add chamaleon (archer 42) if you aren't tanking.

You guys are gimping your Ifrit fights if you don't use Resonance. You can now easily Raise one of your party members when Ifrit jumps from across the field. Very worthwhile. Everyone with Raise should have it equipped without exception. Otherwise, I use most of what's posted.
