Level 55 & 60 Job ability speculation

[Teslo]

Do try to remember that any new abilities will have to be balanced with the as-yet unknown abilities of the new jobs. :P For all we know the entire system could change! Not as drastically as WoW does in-between expansions, but the possibility exists.

Also, a couple people have eluded to it, but Classes will be getting new abilities as you level as well. Not just the jobs every 5 levels.

I support Burst (It would apply Thunder III. The only difference between the Thunders is initial damage, which differs by 10 potency each, and the time the DoT lasts), and I'm amazed MNK hasn't gotten Chi Blast, yet. Would love to see a damage-oriented Fairy, for when overkill healing isn't necessary and obviously SMN's are getting more Egi's. :P

Whm should get haste!

Bard
Level 55ebilitaing music-lowers enemy accuracy by 30%
Level 60:Arrow of Heaven- Massive damage! Equal to the Elegost's True Shot from LOTR third age

Scholar
Level 55:New Fairy- That raises allies!!
Level 60:Twin Sisters- Allows 2 fairies but lowers your healing by 10% or Heaven's Gift-lowers damage taken by 30% or gives regen to those in the vicinity.

THM/BLM:

• Class Ability 1: A PvE version of Phantom Dart with a similar icon and effect
• Class Ability 2: Some sort of Dark Spell
• Job Ability 1: From FF XII we have Bubble: a spell that doubles the current max HP, however it would have a cool-down of 15 minuets and lasts 10 minuetes
• Job Ability 2: AoE thunder spell (Burst)

ARC:

• Class Ability 1: Yet another DoT
• Class Ability 2: Spikes (icon and effect changes based on egi summoned, SCH and no pet has a default effect)
• Class Ability 3: Summon III will be a class ability. New Carbuncle and Fairy will be introduced

SMM:

• Job Ability 1: Summon IV (Leviathan)
• Job Ability 2: Summon V (Ramuh)
• Job Ability 3: Summon VI (Shiva) or an attack like the OHKO mechanic in Tamtara HM's Avere fight (in aesthetics)

SCH:

• Job Ability 1: Psychic II
• Job Ability 2: Walpargisnaught: Summons all 3 faeries to heal a player to max, their version of Benediction but also swaps out one summon for another (in a fixed cycle of Eos > Selene > unknown 3rd fairy)

Love it!!! ^__^

I really hope we get
* a more potent AOE heal.
* a debuffing fairy.
* 4th Aetherflow stack
* "Walpargisnaught" !!!

That would be awesome.

To do this you will have to remember the base Job as well. They will add additional skills to it. Every other 2 levels they will get a skill and a trait.
Then for the Jobs They Will get one Skill at 55 and 60.

GLA:

52 Trait: Enhanced Vitality Adds 24 Vitality

54 Weapon Skill:

Requiescat
Cast: Instant Recast: Global Tp Cost: 60
Delivers a four fold attack with a potency of 125.
Combo Action: Riot Blade
Combo Bonus: Reduces targets highest stat by 5% Combo Potency: 260

56: Trait: Enhanced Shield Swipe. Can now Proc Rage of Halone.

58: Weapon Skill:

Phalanx
Cast: Instant Recast: Global Tp Cost: 120
Delivers a four fold attack with a potency of 125.
Combo Action: Shield Bash
Combo Bonus: Decreases damage taken by 5%

60: Trait: Enhanced Requiescat: Increase combo potency to 300. Increase stat reduction to 10%

PLD:

55: Holy Shield:Decrease’s the damage the party takes by 10% for 10 seconds. 120second CD.

60: Weapon Skill

Knights of The Round
Cast:Instant Recast: 60 Seconds MP Cost: All remaining Mp
Does damage based on the amount of MP you have. Reduces the Potency of the enemies next special attack by 10%

[Teslo]

Knights will most likely not be a skill. They've already mentioned that the "Knights" will be appearing in Ishgard in the coming expansion. They also mentioned something about a "Round Table".

Perhaps change Requiescat to Vorpal Blade and change Knights to Requiescat.

As someone who mains warrior, I'd love to see a fourth combo skill that gains wrath. Needing five and comboing them in sets of two (sans Vengeance and Berserk) it a little odd sometimes.

And now I'm just going to nostalgia it up for a bit.
As for a trait, healing on crits would be lovely to have back.
As well as Mighty Strikes. All attacks crit for a specified amount of time.
And, last but not least, Steadfast! Stand still to increase your parry rate. While 2.0 has greatly changed the way tanking is done, with lots of movements, it would still be nice to have because even while avoiding avoidable damage, I'll never say no to more parry.

[StouterTaru]

I'm hoping for enhanced Transpose for BLM, going between UI and AF at the same level instead of to UI1/AF1.
