[1206] Water spells

[Celtodeno]

Water and Enfeebling Magic seemed to have been pulled from Cnj and Thm.

Also, there is talk of expanding the caster pool.

There is a 'Arcanist" guild in LL(by the water, hint hint) that is so far unused.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see Arcanists Debuffing with Water spells, maybe neutral spells too.

Well we have 2 things to assume from the little info we have.
(1) in the old dats, flayer used whips, but we have no idea what the flayer woulda been.
My guess is, it's now the weapon for BST/SMN.
Since the idea of a lion tamer (Beast Tamer) is commonly thought of, as having a whip. Along side FF4s caller/summoner using a whip as well.

(2) Ulbringer or w/e the name of the NPC is, in the early GC quests, has an Arcanima Staff. (assuming magitek)
We know Arcanimists had early designs in being a pet class.
This NPC summons familiars...
Then again it's said he is a bard as well...
This might also be the BST/SMN weapon... or It can just be me over thinking something that wasn't thought out that well to begin with.

In short, when it comes to Arcanimst or BST/SMN, its possible either might not be the Water user. (depending on if either are made into the pet class)

According to the French rep, Water wasn't included on the list on purpose, but will be present in the game. He confirmed that Conjurer will have access to Wind / Earth / Water elements and Thaumaturge to Fire / Ice / Lightning.

Either way, thanks for getting the French info. I wonder why they did it?

There aren't any water-based attack spells, but conjurers do control water-based spells. The break down of elements are as follows:
CNJ: Water/Wind/Earth
THM: Fire/Ice/Lightning

Also, there are no paralyze/poison/silence/absorb/slow and there aren't any plans to implement them before the launch of version 2.0. However, as we move forward, if it becomes absolutely necessary to utilize them, we will look into it.

This totally sucks, worst idea ever

I don't like this so much. Please keep enfeebling magic part of THM or BLM's repertoire, please.
