New Job: Viper

[Tracewood]

Thank Halone it's not Corsair. I was accepting of it at first, but I'm glad to get this instead. Been clamoring for a real dual sword DPS, sword on the back and fast paced.

Funny that the TMNT shirt was just Leonardo as the hint, though he could of wore a shirt with a viper on it.

This is probably really silly, but it came to mind and I couldn't help myself. Not a theory, just a silly.

I was thinking this exact same thing.

[Axxion]

looks interesting but like how other have mentioned seems stiff.

Darth Maul without glowing swords!

I am disappointed! I want glowing swords!


Cheers

Just wait, I'm sure we'll get plenty of glowing EX weapons later. Not to mention Palace of the Dead and Heaven-on-High.

It looks clean. Now the cons:

- Feels too much like reaper. Maybe how it plays will change this but it gave me major reaper vibes.

- They can call a self buff just because? Seriously? I find that so disappointing given the location. I assumed it would have something to do with the location but it's a generic blue aura because soul crystal uhh...it feels like reaper but without the voidsent lore.

man a stance dancing melee would be pretty cool

It really does feel like an odd choice for the second scouting job to be another dual-sword-wielding job, especially when ninja's daggers have gotten so big that there's little apparent difference except for stance.

Talking of stance, it seems oddly stiff. I don't know if it's still a work in progress but it feels off. I think it might have worked better with the dual blade as their default stance and then sometimes split it into separate blades for attacks. They could still stow it as two blades and then assemble it with the unsheathe animation.

It also seems odd that it's described as a Turali discipline and yet the job gear is very pirate-looking.

Beyond that, I'm mostly withholding judgement until we actually see it in the game.

I think so, too! I'm trying not to head-canon how it'll actually play, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't theorycrafting.

I think it looks pretty cool. I just hope it won't just be a kind of ninja/reaper mix or idk. I hope it has it's own identity.
