The gap between static and non-static enmity WS is smaller, I'd guess is his point.

More like 1500 not 1000 :D
Remember when WSs were doing 1000 dmg on hnms? It was still the problem with enmity. Now You are doing 5x more damage probably and strategy is usually more aggressive. This adjustment wont matter much in fights when you want to control hate lvl really. In other fights we werent controling it anyway and last stand and Namas will only be stronger with new ammo so I will say overall this update is small or big boost to Anni/Yoichi ( depends of the damage on new ammo).

Perhaps this will be fixed with mog garden?

Sure but only in the same way the dmg increasing since the cap got raise was a significant boost to them. So all told probably brings the ws back to near there old usefulness assuming you are doing tank + ranged staying away tactic

In a weird way, it's almost like a boost to Annihilator. It's a nerf to Coro usage but that also means an increase in the number of scenarios Last Stand is usable.

Whats this about the twilight scythe changes?
Only new drops have the shitty enhancment, and any old ones will remain OP?

Nope. It says in red writing underneath the change that old ones now deal normal damage too and don't get the enhancement until they are stored at least once.

* Twilight Scythes' normal attacks will now be considered physical damage regardless of whether they were stored with a Porter Moogle or not.

Still no time for the expansion to go live huh. Maddening!

**Gwynplaine** · 2013-03-27 10:23

Good stuff I'm excited. But ugh more annoying server voting mechanics like the stupid voting they had in Campaign.

**lolwut** · 2013-03-27 10:34

Cor gets no bullet love. Guess we should just suck it up and /whm like we were always meant to.

**Obsidian** · 2013-03-27 10:49

Don't even joke about that.

Not like bullet damage affects Wildfire (what about Last Stand?). I can count the number of CORs I've met that actually fire their gun on one hand.

It's at least 6 more hours considering it says 28th for EU. It's probably gonna drop at 2-3 am UK time.

Last Stand is similar to any other Physical Ranged WS, just with a second hit if you have ammo, bullet damage is a factor.

Last stand is physical. Though I think the bigger concern would be qd but I'm no cor. I'm just mad that thf hasn't gotten a new
Bullet or bolt since like 75? Thf last stand builds yes please

the only problem is that Last STand sucks for COR on anything remotly hard. You need to pack so much r.acc to actually land BOTH hits on anything substantional hard, that your R.atk will be suxor and it will do the same or less dmg then wildfire... which is a fucking bummer. The only time Last STand shines on cor is against anything that resists wilfire or takes way reduced magic damag (qilin comes to mind). Fuck I cant even land both hits consistently on anything reliable hard with hunters roll on (but way better then without).

**noodles355** · 2013-03-28 21:09

Eat sushi, sub for for berserk. With that and chaos roll and minutes, you can get good last stand numbers on ig-alima (though that has stalwarts and bravers too Ofc).

the lack of bullet increase for cor won't make a difference for QD. It'd take a pretty big DMG jump to offset the 20mab on omphalos.
