LB 3? More like LB 1 chain.

Because the devs are likely already starting to think about samurai, here is an idea about LB for NIN and SAM--make their LB one that does small to moderate damage, but also gives the party a buff that boosts the rate at which the party gains the next LB.

This is similar to how battle high and battle fever work in frontline.

It would be fun to have a sam or nin pop off one or two lvl 1 LB's in a long fight, and then save up for a ranged lvl 2 AOE LB to kill some adds, pop off another lvl 1 nin or sam LB, and then finish with a big lvl melee LB 3 by a drg or mnk just before an enrage timer.

Before ppl start to complain that it would be too overpowered, please consider that the dev team could easily balance it by many different means, such as capping the effect or giving it diminishing returns.

I also don't think there is too much of a danger in causing nin or sam to be a must-have class for every fight, partly because you are giving the LB buff to 2 jobs instead of 1. And anyway, let's face it--there are already some occasions where your party makeup causes you to feel like you NEED to have a SCH and not a WHM, or a WHM and not a SCH, or a caster for this reason, or a brd for that reason.

I think it would be fun to have these two jobs dedicated more to the art of LB 1 rather than LB 3. Although, an argument could be made that it actually should be nin and mnk that should have this sort of LB, because they focus on smaller speedy hits, where drg and sam would be the ultimate in a single, strong melee strike designed to devastate in one blow.

Never gonna happen. Don't really see the point of this.

If anything has to change about LBs... it's to make them personnal.

The point is to have new creative ways to use the party limit break resource, and potentially have more dps from LB's in a long fight.

At the very least, it creates more opportunity for different jobs to use a LB in a longer fight.
