  • Kraken Club

    I was just wondering if anybody has used this weapon as a Ninja and if it was any good. I was also wondering how this would work with the Ninjas Dual Wield and Warriors Double Attack. Are there any good weapon skills for a club?

    One last thing, will I gain weapon levels for both weapons equipped, or only for the one in my first hand?

    u gain for both in ur hand however, u will only gain the max skill for the level obviously.


    for example you can max 195 on katana and your sword might be a max of only 185, hope this helps

      It's a rare gimmick weapon, and bloody expensive. I wouldn't really count on getting a hold of one.

        There is a movie of a player wielding one of these clubs and absolutly owning. I have not personally seen the movie, but have heared debats of him acctually wielding 2 of them and also a debat about him actually being a Drk/Nin. If anyone can put up a working link to this movie i would really apreciate it.

          He is a DRK/NIN, do a search in the Dark Knight forum for 'DRK Clip'.

          Basically, he starts the fight with a Sword in his main slot, kraken club in his secondary, gets tp and fires Spriti's Within. Then he turns around, switiches the weapon hands around so that the club is his main weapn (I have no idea why he does this), casts Utsu, uses souleater and Blood Weapon, then faces the mob again and goes to town.

          Like was said above, it's a gimmick weapon. That DRK owned it for sure, but only with souleater AND blood weapon, so you could only do it once per 2 hours.

            Kraken Club isnt gimmick -- It lets you hit I think its 4-6 or 2-4 occasionly isntead of 1. Making it a instant tp builder and pretty nice dmg.

            There are other weapons like that such as Fudimll (sp?) and a few others I cant remeber the name too.

            Kraken club is also rare so cant have 2. But ranger friend of mine said he was building tp so fast he could Sidewinder every 10-15 seconds.

              its dropped by the lord of onzozo (something like that) good luck killing it or getting the like 2 million it costs for the club on my server


              10-15 second side winder would either get the ranger decapitated or kill the monster really fast..depeding on how strong what u fight is

              the biggest gimmick weapon ive seen is the 1h katana that adds to cooking! XD

                Stats are posted here:
                http://www.ffxionline.com/forums/sho...b&pagenumber=2

                DMG:11 Delay:264
                Occasionally hits 2-8 times.

                So yeah, it gets TP very fast, but the damage from the weapon is terrible. It's roughly equivalent to fighting with a lv.10 h2h weapon (Stats are close to the Shinobi-Gatana, which i doubt you're using at lv.63), since NIN rate an overwhelming E in club skill :/ basically, if you ever even hit the mob, you'll do 1-2 damage per hit, amounting to a whopping 16 damage per turn.

                The reason i said it was a gimmick is because it's only decent damage with souleater on, and then you can only survive with Blood Weapon up. TP build on it is nice for sure, assuming you can do more than 0 damage, but as tom said, not practical because you'll be dead if you fire a weapon skill every 10 seconds.

                Most people will be wearing it to show off. If i got a drop like that from the Lord, i'd be wearing it around jeuno too.

                As a side note... i bet this thing is great for skilling up your Club skill... The best weapon skill you'd get is Judgement, and you'd get that at lv.75 since NIN club skill is pretty low

                  So that'd actually be good for a PLD to use. Their damage doesn't really matter anyway, and being able to shoot off weapon skills quickly would keep hate and they can use the weaopn skills that adds MP to PT members. If a PLD is able to use that every 10-15 seconds like the ranger, returning 10-20 MP each usage, you can replace a bard or a RDM with a damage dealing class (I know that RDM and BRDs aren't wanted solely for their ability to regain mages MP, but it's one of the biggest).

                  However they'd really want to invest in ATK items instead of DEF then. If they always hit the monster for 0 damage, they wouldn't get the TP. :sweat:

                  OOOOOR they could go PLD/NIN. Keeping hate via ninjitsu and weaponskills, Utsesmi helps greatly with tanking, and they'd atleast have a damage output with a sword equiped. Though I doubt the weaponskill that adds MP does very much damage so it wouldn't keep hate well, but I can dream neh? :sweat:

                    Yeah, that's a good point, and i hadn't thought about it... PLD also has an A- in Club. Only thing PLD wouldn't be able to do is Hexa-Strike. Though, they'd be missing out on Spiritis Within

                    Maybe if you were fighting a lot of undead.

                        Bad part is it also gives the mob tp.

                        *Remebers rule* Anything with death in the mobs TP attack is bad.

                          Yeah... Constant use of blood saber and Hell slash would probably slow down EXP-ing more than the DMG bonus from a club would speed it up. Though, i seriously doubt a PLD weilding this against Skellies would have any issues holding hate, regardless of what the other party memebers were doing... (off topic... sorry)
