    Noritsune Kote

    Noritsune Kote supposedly™ has a +crit up hidden effect. I haven't read about it anywhere, just rumors flooding on Pandemonium right now. Anyone have a chance to parse it?

    It would be hard to test such a thing unless it were a really drastic increase. Still, I'd be interested in seeing the parser with and without it on aura statues or some other mob of similar difficulty that you could test on a long time for.

    I've heard it gives +10 weapon skill points. For example +10 Ktn / GKT / H2H skill.

    If it does it would increase your attack by at least 10 points... pretty easily verifiable but it seems unlikely that nobody would have noticed that by now.

    Well lets see:

    Taira no Noritsune (平 教経)(1160-1185) fought in the Genpei War battles of Mizushima, Ichi-no-Tani, and Dan-no-ura alongside his brethren in clan Taira. He is supposed to have died by drowning himself, at Dan-no-ura, while holding a Minamoto warrior under each arm.

    Does this relate to FFXI? Probably not. Usually there's a mythological backing to most stuff in this game (possibly explaining/revealing hidden effects).
