Combos!!

[Malakhim]

basic combo:

Mrd's Disorient (target evasion is lowered) > Any attack capable of missing > ???? > Profit

Fixed that for ya.

I wish it could be like the combo system in Legend of Dragoon, lol.

DCUOs combat system is completely built around combos. They are going f2p on Nov. 1st, so anyone interested can have a look.
Also interesting since it's one of the few other MMOs built for a gamepad.

Combos sound like Limit Breaks to me, just activated differently.

I also played Aion, so I know the Combos, and I think It would really spice this game up.
I really like this whole Idea of "Combos" and "Finishing Moves" It reminds me a lot of the Tales of Series where you can link Artes to make Combos and Mystic Artes or Combination Moves using the Over-limit bar as your Trump Card.

I personally think It would also be really cool If there was something like Over-limit bar in XIV, but I know I'm hoping too much :P

EDIT: I wonder what's happening with Battle Regimen now, and how it will turn out 0.0 maybe like XI Skillchain? Bonus effect when Chaining certain Combos with each other?

I will not say the current combo in FFXIV is the same as Aion

You do Featherfoot to boost your evasion to have a miss in order to beable to use Simian Trash, this is a tactic not a combo, because you simply can use Simian Trash whenever you evade the hit and have 1,5k TP

Aion Combo Might sound like unlocked but it is only half right because this is a mmo and not reality if you compare in this way:

Aion: Left swing -> right swing -> Smash down (chance for knock down) -> knock down -> Finish Move -> end of combo

Combat game: left punch -> right punch -> mid kick (target dizzy if hit) -> dizzy -> Finish move -> end of combo

in FFXIV the LNC skill with the long animation with multi thrust is just like the Aion skill from Left swing to Finish move but in 1 button while at aion, they seperate that to 4 click and 1 requirement and make it look like it s unlock

feel free to keep disscuing, this thread is interressting

ninja edit: if we talk about battle reg it ll be different because battle reg is party combo, while Yoshi mention is solo combo, those 2 cant be call alike or can bring out to compare

Maybe you heard of the word « hissatsu waza » (Coup de Grâce, Finishing Move), like in the Japanese mangas, that’s something we’re thinking about. Something you can use once in very special occasions.

Hi All,

Yah I'm really excited the new Combo System / Skillchain / Battle Regimen 2.0 System that's coming.

More use of battlefield positions, activating certain skills at each position, and then having that Hissatsu Waza (Finishing Move) like having Cloud (Final Fantasy VII)'s OMNISLASH Limit Break would be awesome!

It certainly beats what we have now and adds more fun to the game.

I can't wait!

[Aion]

something that easy to execute but hard to master(and FUN!!!)...I hope that kind of combo system here...

[CrystalObsidian]

Vindictus has combos and finishing moves too..

I can't say I fully understand what Yoshi was talking about but it does sound very interesting. I can't wait to try it out ^^
