    Merits sj?

    I have about 80 merits atm all of them into my BLM. Im thinking about lvling my RDM to 75 now to merit the Lightning and Blizzard Acc. If I did this and went BLM/RDM would the merits in my RDM have any effect?

    Job specific merits are Job Specific, so no. -- General merits however carry over. (weapons others etc.)

    They won't carry over to other jobs, even if you've got a merited job subbed on another 75 job.

    Besides as an RDM, if you're going to fully merit two elements, it should be ice and wind.

    any job specific merit does not carry over.

    You lose your job specific merit at lv 74.

    You also lose your job-specific merits in level-capped areas and BCNMs.

    Just think, all that effort poured into your character only to be cockblocked by a level cap icon. CoP sucks lol

    I originally wanted to level WAR to 75 to merit provoke, when I got to 60 or so I cried for a while then finished it for the fun of it.

    how was this tested? it seems like mine are on, although not at 100% strength (like any other merits, they are limited when you are low level)

    In lv 50 and below caps, I don't kick at all on monk despite having +5% kick attacks on my merits.

    I've also heard WARs confirm that their berserk recast wasn't lowered when capped.

    So I think job specific merits only apply to a 75 job.

    It was flatly stated by SE that unless your level 75 at that time, they don't kick in.
