I was able to get flat blade up to 40 avg on ifrit. Full DPS setup but worth a look.
That's nice, 220 Enmity per hit.
I know with just AF and Ifrit's Blade it's around 10-12 damage average for Flat Blade on Ifrit (I think 10 is the Floor). So 66 Enmity per hit. (sad face)
So I wonder if you could estimate if it's better than ENM+ for the effects on Flash/Provoke. (Ifrit Fight)
- 30 Second Enmity Cycle, Flash, Provoke, Flat Blade Combo (20% Extra ENM) 2311
- 30 Second Enmity Cycle, Flash, Provoke, Flat Blade Combo (DD Setup) 2520Flat Blade is pretty amazing. I think it would be "Just Right" if they reduced the TP amount to 500 from 1000 on Fast Blade.I usually just spam it when my recast's are down on all my other WS's. I can understand why flat blade does low damage, because you hit them with the Flat of the blade, but it was a horrible choice for our Enmity Combo. Maybe if it had a chance to stun it would be more worthwhile.

Doubtful because that means we'd also be able to freely spam Savage/Goring Blade for 500tp as well. That's why I'd prefer they move the combo modifier to Savage Blade that way we could get a solid Enmity return from the damage dealt and we can follow through with Goring Blade. Then we can turn Flat Blades combo modifier into more of a utility setting to help us out such as high chance to Stun, Silence, Paralyze, Atk. Down, Def. Down or maybe just a 15-30 second duration Enrage to increase enmity generation like Sentinel and Antagonize's effect.
