Re: yay wyvern breathe accuracy ^^
OK, Somepage has clarified things a great deal.
The spear for your throwing slot does no damage (unless you have high STR), so it's basically a superjump with an effect. I can see DRG getting a BRD song to ensure this works right. Hopefully new Angons will be given to us by SE as time progresses (e.g. with a bonus to r.acc).
Somepage clarifies Empathy as copying ALL beneficial status effects to your wyvern when using Spirit Link. Since SL lost some of its usability when the Call Wyvern timer went to 20 minutes, this makes it better than it was before. It will also work well with Mantra for MNK if you are playing a mage sub.
Strafe and Deep Breathing have a critical difference. Strafe affects accuracy and is passive; Deep Breathing affects potency and is on a timer. For melee subs, the timer will likely determine which is more useful and should be chosen first. For mage subs, Deep Breathing will likely be the preferred selection. People using multi-purpose wyverns will need to consider the timer and their playstyle before choosing.
I don't suppose anyone knows the timer on Deep Breathing and Angon? For that matter, what is it about Angon and Tomahawk that makes this better than a simple ranged attack. I mean, I understand the lower defense, but is that it? If it requires special ammo, then it's like separating the weapon and its additional effect. RNG can do it anyway. . . so what makes this special? Just more work? And if WAR get's DEF down too, then why not something else? THF already has EVA down with Feint. I bet Magic DEF down might be popular with mages soon.
Oh well. The one update I really, really wanted for DRG didn't happen. I wish SE would give me a low level Chakram so I have something to practice with. The only two things that keep me from throwing are a lack of ammo options and difficulty building skill.
