Re: New Ability

There's already numerous spells in the game that have been there for years but never implemented. Bio 3, Holy 2 and Meteo come to mind. I can't imagine JA's would be much different.

{That's interesting.}

Re: New Ability

There are tons there but the ones that aren't available have no description. These do now.

Re: New Ability

Puppetmaster skills maybe? All with the same MP cost... that's odd.

Re: New Ability

Looks like geomancer abilities to me. The mp cost is alittle outrageous though.

Re: New Ability

Grand Fall and Heavenly Strike make me think summoner.

Re: New Ability

Some of those JA/spells have been in the game data for a long time now. One example, that I know about for sure, is Heavenly Strike. Check out this topic... specifically taz's original post, post #47, and if you want to see the video, post #41.

Heavenly Strike is an ability that only the NPC avatars can use. PC SMNs that summon Shiva won't have the Heavenly Strike ability. What taz did in the video was he swapped the Blizzard IV animation with the NPC only Heavenly Strike animation.

Re: New Ability

I'm guessing these abilities are going to be available to SMNs via merit points.

Re: New Ability

Yeah I assume SMNs will finally be able to learn these abilities now...which is probably why SE is changing (and what they are changing) about with SMN skill, to make it effect those skills more then likely ^^, we'll see~

Re: New Ability

Or more likely, NPC only abilities.

Re: New Ability

as some of the posters at theorderls are pointing out, these abilities are used by the Prime avatars.

Think this is key thing to their reasoning of the spells becoming usable for the PC SMNs. If most of those spells were already in game usable by NPCs and never had a description why add them now?

Along with if that's the description for it, the description isn't like a technical Refference for the programmers to know what it does. That description is more suitably directed for PCs to see.

That's what bring up the pondery of is it going to be one a PC can use?

Re: New Ability

I see this as level 74 or level 75 magic bursts for SMN. But who knows, they could implement them for both BLM & SMN, since our Avatars are originally suppose to have these abilities.

Sadly, if these spells don't do more or just as much damage as ancient damage, i will be disappointed. I'm tired of dealing 300-700 damage to Very Toughs every minute.

Re: New Ability

Those are all the FINAL BLOODPACTS that the Prime avatars use! The are AOE and do a ton of damage!

I think SE will finally make them usesable for us, summoners!

Summoners dont get anytihng at level 75, so I am pretty sure they will be levle 70+

But this leads to the following question....

What about Fenrir and Diablos.... i dont recall if they have an aditional BP..... I have done the Prime Avatar battles so so so many times... and i have seen all those blooc pacts.. well.. died.. but i have seen them!

They are finally here!

Well... now that i think of it.... They requeire alot of MP... well... lets see.. will they be burstable? Will they be sillchainable? Will they do more damage than predator claws, chaotic strike etc?

Also.. is it me or at levle 75 astral flow is worthless... i rather do predator claws than aerial blast.... sad but true.
