  • Does Blink stack with Utsusemi?

    Again, a hypothetical question with which I have no plans of practice.

    No, Utsusemi will overwrite blink. If you cast blink while Utsusemi is on you'll get "no effect" message. If you cast Utsusemi while blink is on you'll lose blink and gain utsusemi.

    Edit: which is why many smns don't bother with aerial armor when all the DDs start subbing nin. Blink won't effect anyone but the smn and whm/rdm

        Hmm ... this SMN kept using Aerial Armor ... I didn't really notice it at first, but no wonder the NIN was flipping out over that. LOL

          Yeah most us summoners...well the good ones start using Earthen Ward(stoneskin) instead. If you meet that guy again bug him about it...unless he's not high enough XD

            Blink will overwrite Utsusemi btw...

            I've had it happen before when a SMN used Aerial Armor just after I finished casting. Very annoying.

              Really? I know that the spell Blink does not overwite utsusemi, from trying it as whm/nin.

              Thats really odd unless Aerial Armor is different from the spell in it's activation rate or something. Just like earthern ward and that PLD job ability will not overwrite whm's stonger stoneskin. I'll have to do some testing.

                Um... No.

                I'm pretty sure about this; used to do a lot of Promyvion runs, and we usually have a SMN with us. Lot's of Aerial Armor casted, which had no effect on my WAR/NIN when Utsusemi was up.

                Copy Image from Utsusemi has higher priority than Blink.

                  I've never had Blink overwrite Utsusemi, ever. I have always gotten the no effect message.

                    Ok, so I'm not going crazy. Thanks for the confirmation.

                      I wonder if Summoning Skill and Ninjutsu skill plays a factor into this...

                        Doubtful. I used to do quest with a SMN friend of mine all the time. He had capped Summoning Magic skill and I was 75THF/NIN. The fact that my ninjutsu skill would be the same as a lvl 37NINs and his summoning magic is capped a 75 kind of defeats that theory since it still didnt overwrite.

                          I don't think so. Promyvion is Lv.30 capped, and the SMN was Lv.75; her Summoning Magic skill should be more than capped in those area. Bunch of us are usually on WAR/NIN, with half level Ninjutsu.

                          Utusemi has higher priority over Aerial Armor and Blink, that's all.

                            I can vouch for Itazura and Tokitoki. I've never seen Blink overwrite Utsusemi for anyone, and casting Utsusemi always overwrites Blink.

                              No, it does not.
