Tachi: Koki = 175

WAR90/SAM45 Gkt skill = 138
Bushinomimi Great Katana Skill +5
Justice Torque Great Katana Skill +7
Kengo Hachimaki Great Katana Skill +5
Gkt merits 8/8 = Great Katana Skill +16
= 171

You'd need to wait till the lvl99 rolls out.

...And even then you have to choose between Blade: Ei or Tachi: Koki

There's just no way of getting rid of NIN in this equation

I was thinking of ways to cover all reds on WAR but devious bastards at SE just won't let me.

if there was only an "all jobs" scythe and gs nin could prog all the red's!

**Clash Perez** · 2011-04-06 13:40

All the red's what?

**Kaisha** · 2011-04-06 14:50

Guess I don't have to feel bad about choosing full elemental merits over summoning now.

Main question I had to ask now is if I'll put an extra four merits into MP (making it 12/12), or dump them into HP....

They are adding a whole new merit system after 99.

I could see an all-jobs scythe as a Halloween reward this year! While it would fit the nature of the event, I doubt Squeenix will show that much love.

I'm trying to come up with an excuse for an all-jobs Great Sword, but I'm drawing a blank.

Ugh.
More meriting.

Btw.
We are assuming theyre not increasing individual caps?
IE: You can still only have a max of 5 in one attrib.

# Maximum Number of Upgrades by Ability

* HP/MP: Increased from 8 to 12
* Attributes: Increased from 5 to 8
* Others: Increased from 4 to 5

I assume this is referring to that very thing

**gairaiden** · 2011-04-06 18:10

Being able to do koki would be nice at least

Already got GKT and Polearm capped, now I'm free to cap H2H as well ^ . ^ should compliment my Faith Torque nicely :D

I'm slightly torn on magic though. I've had capped Elemental & Enfeebling for a while, but shall I do summoning or blue magic...

I'm going Blue Magic. I don't use SMN anywhere near as much as BLU, and I barely use BLU anyways.

I hope they eventually allow expand this more at the 99 cap + the additional merits they are adding at 99. Still a nice addition that I wasn't expecting. Even if it won't take long to get the merits for this.

**Malacite** · 2011-04-06 22:51

Would also like to point out that now BRD can max all 3 of their musical skills :D

OH THANK GOD

**Mithroy** · 2011-04-06 23:11

Only all jobs great sword is the GM only sword I'm afraid...

**Karbuncle** · 2011-04-07 00:30

Wonderful adjustment.

Now I'll be out meriting again! Wooo. Should probably get my merits up and ready for when the update comes...Gotta think about what combat skills i want to cap. Already have h2h up there, other ones... Eh?

Going to need 2 trips to take STR from 5 to 8, I'll probably work on Critical hit rate to 5 from 4 first though.

Mmmm, Merit work.
