Summary: offensive spells that are not yet in the game (and which job could get them)

[Neela]

Any chance they will increase the duration of bio and miasma to 45 or 60 second or or make a spell that refresh both of these duration with single press to make SMN rotation less scram with button press?

like sam (duration) and brd (refresh) dots combined?

tbh i don't see the urgent in dot improvement... currently we are not used to use dot-hardcast that often... do we?

I'd still like to see RDM get Ardor at some point as a shoutout to it being used on the job in FFXII's Zodiac system. Not sure if there's too many others that haven't shown up in one form or another.

Terminology-wise, "the Ardor" is the Ascians' term for Calamities/Rejoinings, so using it as a spell name might be a bit odd.

[meTYE]

what about meltdown? thats a spell not in the game yet.

[Seraphyel]

I'd love one more (new) DoT that interacts with Fester, bringing its potency to 450 or even 500.

O8s doesn't actually happen though lore wise, its a what if scenario brought about by the wandering minstrel embellishing things, thats why these fights can be so catastrophically powerful.

I simply mentioned it as a matter of interest to the conversation. I don't think this discussion was limited to what's strictly "canon" or not within the game. If we are going lore-wise, in the case of the Omega savage fights, these are actually further simulations run by Omega to continue testing the WoL's abilities.

Terminology-wise, "the Ardor" is the Ascians' term for Calamities/Rejoinings, so using it as a spell name might be a bit odd.

To be fair, we also have an Ultima Weapon, an Ultima spell, and Ultima the High Seraph all within the scope of the game. I don't think it would be that strange to have an Ardor spell, especially when the Ascians have used that terminology so sparsely. I don't recall it having been used since post-ARR.

if thing happen like ppl predict, then in 5.0 we deal with empire, and finally in 6.0 we deal with ascian, so it's time for WoL up their game a little bit

[DarkZeroUnit]

Death or DOOM for blm if targets hp is at a certain point it can install kill it and if above a certain percentage it deals large amounts of damage

[Eloah]

what about meltdown? thats a spell not in the game yet.

YES!!! Give SCH Meltdown, they need a nice burst AoE spell. Besides BLM, who have enough burst moves, SCH is the only job to be known to have it. Just please don't name it Klausta or whatever they called it in XI.

[Lambdafish]

Death or DOOM for blm

Considering the mechanics of the game, both these spells are BLU territory.

[Orbus]

Don't you mean Merton?
