I think sams would be a mite bit pissed if we stole Tenzen from them lol. I like that move though, it reminds me of FFT style Sam WS's, at least the cosmic elucidation part of it anyway.

Prothscar's list is bang on. A list like that would actually allow for interesting combos during SP2 and make choosing just one during UL far more deliberating ("with so many good skills, I can only choose one..."). Seems fairly balanced as well, with no buffs being fulltime-able and any offensive skill only being the best on differing targets.
I could only hope that SE takes a list like this seriously.

| | Hello,
Thank you for all the feedback, everyone! I would like to share some information that we received from Development Team:
Here's a question to Camate and Co. Will DRK's TP drain work even if your attacks deal 0 damage, due to a physical shield or something like that?. |
Because the absorbed amount of TP is not based on damage, so as long as you hit, even if the damage is 0, the ability will still absorb TP. To find out how much TP and in what cases, please try it out on the test server and let us know your feedback.
I'd recommend making the White Mage 2-hour give immunity to Charm, Petrify, Death, Terror, and Dispel. It should last for 2 minutes. |
We will be adding Dispel to the list of resists.
Whether we expand out to other status ailments depends on our discussions, so it would be really appreciated if you can let us know the specifics of why having a certain resistance would be good while keeping balance in mind so we can look into this. Of course having resistance against everything would be beneficial, but it's not the best course to just ignore how this will affect everything else.
While we can't go over every comment/question because the SP ability adjustments are still in progress, we are still reviewing your feedback and taking them into consideration so please keep them coming! | |

Primeval brew doesn't stop us getting charmed. I don't think they're going to add it to that ability, sadly. :(

Would actually make the ability useful and something I count the seconds towards my next cooldown, as opposed to "oh hey UL is up, guess I can Bilgestorm real quick to pump up the WAR/SAM/DRK's epeen #'s."

They should add a resistance to death if not a full immunity. If they`re dead set on letting mobs dish out instant death moves when they feel like it we should at least have a chance of resisting it.

Perfect defense does . . . so why not WHM SP ability? WHM SP ability should grant immunity to everything perfect defense does + more, otherwise what's the point. I would obviously prefer immunity to damage + status effects over just immunity to status effects.

Make it based off your healing magic skill, at certain levels you gain a new immunity to a specific status ailment.

| | Regarding the New SP Abilities
This is a follow-up regarding some of the new SP abilities.
Warrior
Currently, the new WAR SP sets the double attack rate to 100%. This will be changed so that it instead adds 100% to the double attack rate. The ability will also be adjusted so that this +100% double attack rate decays over time.
However, you will be able to maintain at high double attack rate by utilizing Double Attack effects, equipment, and traits. The effect duration will remain 30 seconds.
Note that while the test server will be updated this week, the new WAR SP will not be changed at this time.
White Mage
Since the previous announcement, we are considering the following two items:
- Leave the effect as is, and increase the duration from 30 seconds to 60 seconds.
- Keep the duration at 30 seconds and add a strong resistance against doom, terror, amnesia, and death.
Black Mage
The effects of the new BLM SP ability will be limited to elemental magic, and we will reduce the occurrence of resists.
For monsters that are highly resistant to certain spells, a half resist always occurs. If a monster resists further from there (twice total) a quarter resist will occur. During the SP ability, the number of resists will be reduced by 1, to increase potential damage output.
Note that while the test server will be updated this week, the new BLM SP will not be changed at this time.
The remainder of this post is about the new SP abilities which will be introduced to the test server this week. In this week's test server update, we will introduce the following SP abilities. Please check them out after the test server is updated.
Bard (BRD SP2)
For the duration of the effect, one additional song can be applied to party members.
{{Addendum post: They are checking into whether the effect works correctly with Daurdabla to allow the application of five songs, it may not currently, but they will follow-up tomorrow.}}
Ranger (RNG SP2)
For the duration of the effect, ranged attack delay is cut by half. Furthermore, a double or triple shot will always occur.
Dragoon (DRG SP2)
For the duration of the effect, "Jump" will have no recast.
Note that the help messages for ability effects and ability names are in a temporary state and will be changed in the future. Additionally, the effects of the SP abilities are subject to changes or adjustments.

Seriously though they think PD and embrava are broken with the new recasts they are going to give us drgs a way to get 100tp in 2-3 jumps. Its nice but insane.

Remember, these abilities aren't finalized.
They can change at any time between the test server and the official version update.
Just be prepared for adjustments is all.
