Palidins with Penta?

[savant]

Recently in Bismarck server I've noticed many palidins with polearm type wepons on their backs. I would assume they dont use them in exp parties but, penta thrust would be awsome for farming. Could anyone tell me what level palidins get penta trust? Or do one better and possibly have a site with level caps for each wepon based on job? I've seen it before but lost the link.

I'm pretty sure it's 56.

We get it at 56, and I must say, I love it. On easy prey and such, you'll rarely miss, so you'll get 40-60% TP back each time (since you sometimes will use double attack with penta). I was duoing in Beadeaux with my DRK friend last night, and we were spamming Guillotine -> Pentathrust renkeis for 600 (guillo) + 400 (penta) + 200 (compression) every fight... very fun.

The problem is... our skill is REALLY low with polearms, laughably so. So much that I can't really use it when I help people with AF hunts and such. This is really aggravating since I prefer using high attack weapons for such cases (1h sword for xp PT always). We have some awesome great swords and respectable GS skill (B), but honestly I don't like any of GS WS's. Can anyone tell me if GS has any multihit (lots of TP return) or very damaging WS? I don't know of any except for possibly spinning slash, which we get at lvl 67... Does anyone know if Sickle Moon is multihit?

Sickle Moon is 2-hit ws. not so strong when pld uses it tho.

Spinning Slash is what pld get to learn at lvl 69, not 67. this one is 1-hit only, but is strong. does around 500 damage even against IT mobs.
