New DPS skills

[Sylvain]

Regarding SMN, as people pointed, it could either be FesterII or Ramuh.

FesterII would be the most reasonable approach. It's a single animation, probably doesn't need much dev developpement and it's kind of overdue.

However, we do not see Carbi. It could be during that very short window of time where you're in between 2 summons and its not there... or as people have suggested, Ramuh.

Ramuh would imply a whole new set of 3 summons.

With their new system, it is totally possible, afterall why not? Unlike the old system where you could choose which pet to keep, you're forced to go through all summons now so there's no pointless summon.
However it would be rather costy in term of game developpement, we're talking 3 whole new set of animations. 3 new tiny rotation, that's a lot.

SMN currently suffers from being too simple, so that could very well be a way of addressing it.
Ramuh, Leviathan are a given, but Shiva? Like, we never really "kill" Shiva. Also Shiva is quite different from the others as she's never a proper summon, more a transformation. How would she be treated? Do we go into "Shiva's form" like the repear goes into emo-mode ?

This is definitely the coolest approach but I'm quite skeptical, that would be A LOT of ressources for one job.

I wouldn't be surprised if Communio can now be used at any point in enshroud without ending it and the new skill is the finisher. It would give you a bit more flexibility to choose when to cast.

Th color is the reason I don’t think it’s fester II. Lightning magic in this game has that dark purple color.

Fester isn’t lightning aspected. Though I suppose they could pull the white mage thing where one thing becomes another.

I strongly believe it is just Fester 2. If you go and watch the current fester animation in slow speed, you can already see some small lightning orbs at the end

ya i watched both animations slowed down and they both do an inward orb thing then explode

yes I think it's Fester II unless summon Ramuh momentarily changes Fester and Painflare to an "electric" version

I hope that at least one new summon is included... and I think this expansion is the last hope to see it

Its kinda lame if it is just "Fester 2". I would think they would want to show off something more than that, because that won't exactly enthuse people.

Apart from the fact we technically shouldn't know what it is, so drawing conclusions based on that is flawed. The point of the benchmark isn't to get you hyped for jobs, that is the point of the job action trailer, where, you still won't know what the actions are, but have everything in more context.

[VentVanitas]

if SMN really did get Ramuh/Leviathan/Shiva I suspect it'd be a level 100 capstone ability, not 92-94. sorry, but I believe it more likely to be Fester 2 as well.

Would be a nice troll move, if that wouldnt be ramuth, but Susanno (didnt he used lightning attack to?).^^
