Are you looking at attack in your TP set, weaponskilling and looking at attack in your WS set? Same exact gear before and after you look?

Abyssea La Theine has both mobs for the new spells.
E-5 - E-6
Gigadophnia - Blazzing Bound
Veld Clionid - Acrid Stream

30 mins with gloves got both with ease, bring WHM or Healer with you at minimum, these mobs are not to be underestimated.
o_O

I dunno about the Blazing Bound mobs, but Clionids are almost as squishy as Imps. You shouldn't need a healer. I've heard reports of soloing Blazing Bound, will confirm this evening.

EDIT: And stop being AFK >_> Need data on DW!

Probably lots of mixed results in this zone, since difficulty varies based on performance and probably number of people in your group.

30 min limit, bad AOE and tp moves and aggro if not paying attention. Time limit is enough to not screw around and just grab them quickly, so bring a friend.

Reported DA trait via Demoralizing Roar + Acrid Stream, DW via Blazing Bound + Animated Wail. Trying to get some test results in on level of DW.

From the poster Nightfyre on BG.

Pretty cool if it's true, but it'll cost a lot of set points.

Yes, I was wearing the exact same gear before and after. I was fighting EP ***, so I didn't even bring any gear swaps with me.

So with double attack and dual wield at once, does /THF because the only SJ for BLU now?

More like /RDM. /NIN for melee solo, /THF for Cannonball, /RDM for party/alliance/nuking play at 80. Anything else is small niche applications like /SCH or /DNC in Campaign. Convert plus Auto-Refresh, Mirage Jubbah/Morrigan's, Battery Charge, and Sanction/Sigil as appropriate is a shitload of MP.

Lol yeah I was thinking this myself. Hell I'd possibly put /rdm higher on campaign now

Nice, DW as a trait is just what BLU needed. Any idea what level of mastery it is?

Still get some nice boosts from the other subs..

/nin: Anything that hits hard or needs shadows.

/dnc: The new /nin, nice Subtle Blow, Accuracy, and Dual Wield. Gets Sambas(Aspir expecially), and more importantly Haste Samba at 90

/rdm: Convert at 80, making it comparable to, if not better than, /sch for mainhealing.

/thf: Group damage, meh for solo.

/sch: Still a significant main healer since the healing magic boosts in Light Arts has a potent effect on spells.

I'm going to take a guess and say Dual Wield will be tier 1 with the chance of gaining higher tiers in future updates. It's a must that we'll get spells as our level increases anyway. If it's tier 1 then I only see it useful to me as BLU/BST, but then again I have yet to decide on how I'm going to tweak my spell list until I do a bunch of experiments.

Does RDM refresh stack with Battery Charge or does Battery Charge overwrite it?

This is neither here nor there (as it is possible DW will Tier up by setting additional spells) but while looking at the new gears 76-80 I noticed quite a bit of pieces that had "Enhances Dual Wield effect" so its possible that's the direction blu is going to be heading: DW I from spell set traits and 3-4 pieces of gear to end up with DW3 or w/e.

Speculation is speculation though so... someone post what tier DW blu gets already xD

Gonna say tier 1 since it's be fcking HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE to give 2 tiers with 1 spell combo for just 1 trait.

I want to know if anyone even looked at older and lower level spells that had no traits and see if they got DW for lower levels and/or multiple tiers.

They overwrite each other I believe.

Going by the current pattern? 0. We'll get 5 more at 81.

I got Wivre spell in Guaberg {s} too, surprisingly easy to solo to the Wivre there, never tried before. Got it within about 10 minutes.

The gnat spell is a biotch btough, seriously reccommend a duo, they're pretty hard.
