Discuss <.<

Get 100%TP+ and that screws over your latent ring.

this is were it is at!~ Man i cant wait for this

i never thought of that >.> Yay (stupid se)

hurrray this might make BLM for campagn battle more fun... nuke nuke nuke nuke nuke, Spirit taker! aspire, nuke nuke etc.

Go go campaign onry BLM?

Mana wall will be pimp ~ i loose my MP and when i run outve mp i cant do anything so i loose my hp? sounds like some pimp ja cant wait to have it

Or if you just happen to have it up during an AoE.

the time i campaign on my blm instead of doing puddings will be a very..very bad day.

Blms don't get that only drk and lol sch. I'd love to get it on blm though. Throw out some chump nukes to get tp run in vidohunir then do some real nukes

One problem: we don't get Occult Acumen. All we got for JTs was Magic Burst Bonus.

Even if we did... have fun fulltiming a single staff.

i dont think it'll be something ill rely on >.> maybe if im near a zone and i dont have the hp but have the mp (but hey that rarely happens) i also wonder if it will still interrupt spellcasting.... hmmmmm D:

If you manage to get 100% TP from nuking on BLM, you're probably not swapping staves, in which case you're doing something very wrong.

Although, as others have pointed out, not that it matters for BLM since they don't get it.

Edit: Beaten to the punch! D:

god they make it way to close together >.> i cant tell, lol

They are color coded...

Fixed! >.> Move on from Se's Spacebar not working

I was going off him saying BLMs got the ability, and that's a good point about changing staves even if they (we I guess since I'm 75BLM now) did get the ability.

I cant see the color change (lol) >.>

even then SCH needs it why?

Nor can I, it's all black text to me.

SE needstolearnwhataspacebaris?

Yeah with C skill at beast in weapons. It would make alot more sense on rdm or even blm.

Mana Wall:
1. Maybe while taking damage with your MP, it will work like stoneskin, so you can have a last resort for when you have a mob tailing you and you need a second to cast bind/sleep/stun or whatever...?

2. Maybe when used with Manafont it'll be like a BLM version of invincible? Highly unlikely, but fun to think about... Would be nice for dynamis - qufim...

3. WTF SE, this isn't diablo 2 where casters can get back 12 mana per second! This is a horrible tactic!

Other stuff:

-Is the first two teir V nukes and a magic burst bonus trait not enough for you BLMs? What were you expecting exactly? It's Black Mage! There's not much to add besides bigger nukes... maybe teir II dot spells... Aspir II woulda been nice, but can't aspir everything anyway...

Yay for convert...? Have to spend a bunch of mp on cure III's and Drain to get your HP back up but for a taru BLM that's probably just 3 casts haha.

I dont see Mana wall as something I'll use alot, but it's prolly gonna be handy and save my *** pretty often :p

Maybe when I use Convert, and then ManaWall. Sounds like it will help alot whenever u r in trouble.. I dont know. lol

Back to Occult Acumen on SCH... it depends on what the TP return is like... Probably something very low like 1~5% of damage dealt, or have it based off of casting time like weapons with delay.

"Grants bonus TP when dealing damage with elemental or dark magic."

-It doesn't say the TP is proportionately linked to the damage you deal, it just says it's linked to doing damage.

In any case, on SCH I could see it coming in handy. I'll often klimaform, alacrity/penury Blizzard IV, Blizzard III, penury Blizzard IV, Cryohelix, Blizzard III, Penury Blizzard IV.

-Yes, A lot of hate in one sitting. But I nuke with a noiva since no novio yet, and hate's pretty well set on the tanks or whoever is trying to show off on the campaign boss.

Anyway, 3 T4, 2 T3 and a helix should be enough to get 100 tp before needing to swap off my aquillo's staff so would be fun to see if spirit taker can do some good. Add in Convert, sublimation, and aspir for happier nuking! lol.

I just noticed BLM isn't getting Aspir II. That's hilarious, I'm going to login to so much whining next Dynamis...
