    Transformation Ranks

    Working my way up for the weapon thought people might find this interesting as it's stuff I was unaware of.

    It's awesome fun.
    I obv cant really abyss pvp atm if I want to push towards the weapon ASAP but if my legion members spot a group with a 2star officer or above and some other reasonable ranks they'll give me a call and I can go transform and gain some AP while doing it.

    Obviously the main reason is to have a group of people transform and roll face at siege time however.

    BTW, heard an interesting rumor.

    That first skill requires 10,200 MP which I think might be achievable by a sorcerer with +MP gear.

    Would be interesting to see if you could use those skills outside of transform.

    assuming it's even magic damage, that would just be a crappier lumiel's wrath that's 500% more likely to get you killed since

    a. you'd be wearing MP gear
    b. it's aoe around you instead of aoe around your target

    Well, obviously it isn't interesting because it's practical.

    It's interesting because it's not what's intended by the developers.

    We were discussing that in legion one night. One of our tanks has 4k MP, and templars can wear cloth, so we were contemplating if he could buy a cloth set for MP and put MP manastones on it, if he could reach 10.2k MP. Of course, you don`t have to stay in the cloth armor, you can put your plate back on after using the skill.

    I find it hard to believe that the devs simply overlooked the fact that it's possible to get a large enough MP pool to possibly use this skill out of transformation when there are single items that give over 1.2k MP.

    I don't think he would make it.

    I calculated that I would be a few hundred above the line if I socketed all +MP and I'm pretty sure sorcerers get a larger natural mana pool than templars.

    Yet another reason why it would be interesting.

    should read how much mp transformation gives makes it real easy to use abilities while transformed

    Really doubt they'd let you use it out of form. Probably got some conditional code to it like how a Gladiator can't use Crippling Cut or Draining Blow on a mob that isn't knocked down.

    Bump, OP updated w/ Army Great General.

    The reflect ability sounds sick, and ofc it's limited to maximum 14 people ( 1 governor, 3 commanders 10 great generals ).

    The top 14 players on the servers transformations are def way stronger than the lower transformations, cant wait to use the governor transformation .

    That's great, but this was really for my personal fun and enjoyment , I put a tag on that one to cockblock the image set because of douchebag blogs that rip off content without crediting just to generate money from google ads. ( SS'ing when I obtain the rank and making the images myself ).


    Not like it happened w/ the draupnir map I posted...ohwait....

    I find this post both useful and entertaining, and aionarmory to be full of shit on every subject.

    On a sidenote, where shantotto says he goes out and owns people when we see a large group, he did that once, and cried the whole time. he never leaves teminon

    I think you're thinking about aionsource. Aionarmory says exactly what the OP does.

    Aion armory is inaccurate in the tooltip details vs ingame, as you'll see when I post the commander+governor ranks after dredgion.
