leaked info <not confirmed>

yay ^^ i knew lvlin that 2hander would be handy someday

Elite · 03-24-2003, 01:57 PM

Yeah it really is odd, PLD's have the best 2 handed sword in-game as of now when DRK's should be the one to have it. Now PLD's get an exclusive 2 handed WS, you get asked often to use the 2 hander in pt's though as a PLD. You get so much vitality that sometimes you dont need that shield.

*wants FFXI back... now*

Please don't whine about "spoilers" for an MMORPG, you clicked on this link so blame yourself.

TOPIC SAID "leaked info"

That dark armor was already ingame on NPCs, one in the Oubliette has it for sure.

Another thing in the near future, the level cap will become 100.

Bards originally weren't wanted in parties because of the song limit, they then were allowed two, then their rate of regen was lowered, then now its being lowered again and no more overlap.. Ballad/Ballad2 overlap at high levels isn't really THAT overpowered, it used to be.

mmm beast tamer pet summon, that probably will make beast tamers a more viable class.

So true

/points to Matrix sword, future property of Dart ^^

I actually like using 2h more then 1h cuz i get to do more damage PLUS my TP builds waayyyyy faster then a 1h sword.

Aerex_CoW · 03-25-2003, 10:23 AM

Ahhh, Sheila thank you for the explanation. It now seems more reasonable. I have a question tho. Are bards able to attack or cast a spell while they are singing or do they have to stop singing/playing to do anything else?

Kilgraw · 03-25-2003, 10:32 AM

Nothing for Rangers. Shame.

Sheila · 03-25-2003, 10:50 AM

In later levels PLDs really need two hand sword or spear skill to form a decent bent renkei. Ending bent renkei in a 1hsword, and by paladin is always gonna be very weak.

TP build really depends on the user's skill right now, if low skill to monster level, less hitting going on. Double attack, triple attack innate abilities help.

Far can explain bards more than me.. bards can cast two songs right now on the party. If you separate mages and melee, they can do 2 melee specific songs and 2 mage specific ones. They also must do as many songs on the monster as necessary. If they want to cast or attack, they have to stop with the songs. This is why bards rarely have much TP or weaponskill, it's a very busy job.

Excellent..my monk is becoming more and more powerful. Mwa hahahahhaaha...ha....ha....-cough-. I think i'll be a monk/warrior just for the increase in attack power (I know it goes against the monk defense, but i'm an elvaan anyways) and taunt.

[3viL]3D · 03-25-2003, 07:19 PM

VERY DEPRESSED... Better make my Bard lv60 before they reduce bard double ballad... With ballad2 regen just as much as ballad1, I really dunno what they are thinking about here... What's the point of me getting ballad2 for 110k now... And reduce mp regen more??? They must be kidding... BARD SOLO SUX SO BAD ALREADY, let us be a good PT member at least! Like Sheila said, bard at high lvl really ISNT THAT powerful... -__-

I am thinking they want rdm = brd... To be the 6th choice of the PT, as a very supportive member...

dbeeo · 03-25-2003, 07:27 PM

/cry /cry.... my bard.... hope that is only rumor

/seldbrainwash, yes it is only rumor about the bard

Awntawn · 03-25-2003, 08:40 PM

DRK always has exclusive 2-hand sword renkei tho... the latest one

Always

/speculates about dark scythe and these new "status" magics...

Extreme · 03-25-2003, 08:42 PM

In the job description for monk it says '8 hit WS'.. what does that have to do with the job? WS's come from whatever level your weapon skill is.. and as far as i know there arent any monk-specific weapons. Whats this refering too?

penpen · 03-25-2003, 09:09 PM

monks will probably get an exclusive 8 hit WS for their grapple.
