No it's not, multi-hits mean something.

Upheaval is a 4 hit WS, only the first hit gets the fTP boost. The remaining 3 hits along with any MA procs are stuck at +1.0 http://fTP. Cross Reaper is the same way, first hit gets the fTP boost but the second hit and any subsequent MA procs are only +1.0. What's important is total fTP being used, unless your doing some SA silliness in which case your better off going with Savage / Mistral or just slapping someone.

Upheaval (moonshade)
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Upheaval

1.5 First hit + 3 x 1.0 extra hits = 4.5 fTP @1000
4.25 First hit + 3 x 1.0 extra hits = 7.25 fTP @2000
6.5 First hit + 3 x 1.0 extra hits = 9.5 fTP at max

That's without procing multi-hits, which you most certainly will do and those favor spamming at 1000. Specifically about WAR, the ridiculous amount of +DA that job gets means that you'll be procing over one DA on average per WS. That's why Resolution seems so broken in a WAR's hands, TP scaling combined with fTP on MA leads to frequent 7 hit Resolutions with silly total fTP's. The downside being the -15% attack which is mitigatable with WAR's attack bonus's and buffs. No SC's though so "situational blah blah" applies.

You seem to misunderstand me. I am not suggesting that you use any of those WS at 3k tp, I think that entire argument is dumb because it varies based on situation. All I am doing is listing WS with greater ftp scaling between 2k and 3k. I specifically state this when talking about Aeolian Edge. I did include plausible reasons to use them at 3k tp, but that isn't an endorsement.

In regards to Upheaval, I state the the principal might work because WAR has such a massive amount of DA and STP from gear that, depending on procs and buffs, you could perhaps gain over 1k tp faster than you might recover from two forced waits after ws. You also aren't getting much out of spamming a WS on Great Axe, so chances are better you are closing a multistep skillchain with it.

I appreciate you bringing up something I've already addressed.

Addressed incorrectly... WAR's DA actually makes it worse to try to hold TP on those WS's. Free TP is gravy but we're not discussing free bonus TP.

Greetings,

It’s no doubt that having a feature such as this would be beneficial for those that have run out of their voidstone stock and are aspiring to finish upgrading Empyrean weapons (or those who are looking to make some gil!). Unfortunately, due to how the system is structured, addressing this change is not something that is possible at the moment.

Your stock of voidstones and the voidstone key items function in different ways. When trading in voiddust, these items are automatically converted into key items held in your character data. However, the stock of voidstones is only calculated through time, and it cannot be added to in any other way besides time adjustments such as through the obtainment of abyssites.

Therefore in order to address this we would either have to revamp the key item system to accommodate for a much larger amount of voidstones to be held or address the way stock is managed. Both of these options would require a considerable amount of resources to accomplish, and unfortunately is not something that we can realistically do at the moment.

Apologies for the inconvenience of having to head back to town to trade in more voiddust, but we would greatly appreciate your understanding.

If you aren't jumping with the purpose of already joining a shell, I wouldn't bother.

Mercs here WAY overcharge. The retard spam is over9000. The "top shells" are way behind the Odin/Rag/etc Servers.

There's more people but yeah. The grass is -not- greener.

So many shells, one can always find work to do :D

Dont buy stuff if the price is to high, mercs will only sell stuff for what people are willing to pay (supply demand).

it is greener :D if green = more people and higher PUG activity.
