DT Benchmark Action Analysis

[Rongway]

Think Chain Strategem will be applied in an area around the target, is what they were showing.

The big blue circle on the ground does read as AoE.

I was hoping to see another pictomancer skill. It looks like they really keeping it under wraps. Saw more viper than pictomancer for sure.

It's possible they hadn't finalized a lot PCT animations by the time they put together the benchmark. The response to VPR reveal has mostly been neutral to positive while the response to PCT reveal animations has been mostly negative to neutral.

They do show some PCT but it's mostly stuff we've seen and it's happening when other jobs are doing stuff. Doesn't help that the only time we see pictomancer spells is when Krile is shown fighting.

The same was true for Alphinaud and Sage, and none of the actions he performed were just for the trailer (Although the use of Toxikon I over Toxikon II was misleading, but if you're a conspiracy theorist like me, you believe Toxikon II was supposed to be a different attack and it was retconned at the last minute)

It's all stuff we've already seen, hence my reply to the comment that there was no new PCT stuff.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe there is any new VPR animations either, LB3 excluded.

Yeah. Though for me it was hard to pick out due to not being used to seeing what it looked like. That and the style isn't very flashy. We might have seen more VPR as it is the poster child. Or it's just the same amount we've already seen but at better angles outside of the LB3 that helped me become slightly more excited for the job. As I'm one who feels a disconnect between the job's moves and the name. I'm probably going to level up pictomancer 1st between the two of them.

I'm pretty sure Dark Knight showed 3 skills in this trailer, and all we know about them is they're not an upgrade to Bloodspiller as thats also there.

my guess is that it might be a Delirium exclusive skill a la Primal Rend. lame copout I know but... at least it doesn't seem like Carve and Spit 5.0
