Inconsistancy with NIN weapon skill names/animations and their effects

[Jonnycbad]

Armor Crush: Extends Huton Duration
Aeolian Edge: Deals high potency damage.
Dancing Edge: Reduces target's slashing resistance.


In my opinion, and I don't know if anyone's picked up on this before (I only have since I just started leveling NIN), the effects should be swapped as follows:

Armor Crush: Reduces target's slashing resistance.
Aeolian Edge: Extends Huton Duration
Dancing Edge: Deals high potency damage.


Aeolian is an adjective to describe Aeolus, one of the Greek gods of Wind. It makes sense that this weapon skill would extend the "wind-release" aka Huton spell duration then.

Armor Crush implies destruction or circumvention of a target's protection. To that end, why does Armor Crush instead extend Huton Duration?

Dancing Edge is a neutral name, having neither an implication towards Wind nor breaking armor, therefore this should be the level 26 weapon skill that deals 360 potency from the rear.

Why these effects are mixed up, eludes and bothers me. The simplest fix would be to change the effects as stated and then grant them at the correct levels: Dancing Edge(damage) at 26, Armor Crush at 38(-10% slashing resistance), and Aeolian Edge(+30s Huton duration) at 54.

I've always wondered whether the Keen Flurry and Feint names were mixed up, myself.
But definitely what you've said about the ninja ability names makes sense!
